Well, I already did it when I just started playing on US, ANNIESTAR.

But mainly I was joking because I just saw a Karthus Heimer bottom lane on Jiji's stream. It's not going to catch on for a while at least. That AD + support crap really seems to stick in people's heads really hard.
If you have a good reason to disagree with the above, please tell me. Thank you.

My favorite gimmick team is "Team Never-Die". Anivia, Zilean, Kayle, Poppy and Yorick, all with Guardian Angel, Revive and Teleport. Anivia has to get killed like six times before she actually dies.

Stuck in champ select in ranked, game won't start. If I try to alt+f4 the game it threatens a queue dodge. How to escape this situation?

Janna's scalings are pretty ridic and she's like the only support that can farm well.

0.9 shield, 0.8 slow, 0.75 tornado, 0.35 on heal. 2 nukes, 2 support spells.

But the janna solo isn't anything new. It was done by jiji and reginaId before.

Zilean's still the stronger laner, has tons of burst and DPS as well for a champ with 2 support skills. I'm not even a fan of Zilean solo though. Zilean farms well btw.
And don't forget Karma. She's a beast @ farming and in lane.

The only thing that is really speaking for Janna solo mid right now imo is: She's bad vs ranged AD + healer bottom.
lol.


Zilean might be strong early game, but he's awful late game. It's not even worth building AP on him because he only has one damage ability (that doesn't even scale that well). Better off getting max cdr and then being a ward bitch so you can maximize use of his E. If you spam W fast enough you can revive two people in a single fight if somebody gets blown up at the start ^_^ My point being if you give Zilean a solo you're wasting your team's farm. His base damages are good enough that he doesn't need to farm to be annoying early on and he doesn't scale into the late game at all.

Zilean best counter-pick to Morde though.

So somehow .9 AP ratio = doesn't scale well? What's the point of itemizing CDR when all you need is blue buff and a blue pot anyway?

Zil is one of the few casters who is useful in every stage of the game. Most people just don't have a melee friend in every game getting farmed with them when they play Zil to make use of their 2.5k hp revive.

Compared to a dedicated AP carry like Annie who has three scaling abilities yes. Her ratios are slightly lower, but she has not one, but three abilities to kill people with. The only thing Zilean has going for him is that he does sustained damage and punishes close knit team since bombs can hit multiple people if they're close-by, although I'm not sure I'd consider those good.

The biggest problem with bombs is that they take three seconds to explode. You can kill somebody with annie instantly so they have no chance to get away or do anything about it. With Zilean you can force the first bomb to explode if you W and cast another, but if you can kill somebody with a single bomb you could have won playing anything. While you're waiting for the second bomb to explode they can lifesteal all that health back and then you get nowhere.

You're not so much itemizing CDR as you are not farming at all/playing support bottom.

Well you are comparing Zilean's dmg output to an AP Carry while completely ignoring the utility that Zilean can offer to a team. I was just responding to your point that he was "awful late game" when it's the exact opposite.

?????

Putting Zil bottom is stupid, having a level 6 Zilean for an early dragon fight is huge and one of the main perks for picking him. Don't really know how you're going to have max CDR if you don't itemize for it and it's pretty stupid to give blue buff to a Zilean with no farm. Don't know why you would want to pick Zilean for a "support" bottom in the first place either, especially considering you think that a farmed Zilean is useless lategame -- what good is a Zil without items then? lol

I think it's fair to assume you just haven't seen a good Zilean, he's much better than you think.

if you want to run some kind of ap bot lane cheese like taric/brand you need to ban soraka since she counters pretty much all of it
