Aniva(articuno), Shyvana(Moltres), Kennen(pikachu), Nocturne(Dusknoir) and EZ(Ash Ketchum).
I would replace Shyvana with Skarner. He also has a pokemon joke in game.

As strange as it may sound, Irelia does beat Riven. Just focus on farming because the harass you're going to be taking is really low after your first few levels. Shyvana and Udyr are also pretty much untouchable, both dealing a lot of burst damage and are able to disengage easily and win sustained fights quite well.
Just gotta have balls.

Philo would be so much better than Tear

I'm surprised no one mentioned heal team for troll team comps. You run like Taric jungle, Nidalee and Kayle go mid or top, run all kinds of crazy combos bottom (Soraka + Sona is funny, could replace one of them with Alistar). For added heal everyone on your team picks summoner heal. You win lane, push down towers super early, and just out poke enemy team.

Westrice is playing AD LeBlanc on his stream top right now vs Riven and winning.

@overt lol we did soraka + AD sona bot once , so hilarious.
@craton philo may be, but malady isn't.
Also in my 600+ games of LoL I havent ever build a snowball(mejai/occult) ever.

I used to build Mejai's a lot, but even when I do normals I never really do anymore.

You gotta just do Bravery sometime with friends. It's really fun because if your team does well you become nigh unkillable. Of course, if the game goes badly you will not win. Ever.

We tried a pure backdoor team (Singed, Yi, Kayle, Sivir, Sona), but it didn't really work. Then we tried Anivia, Singed, Yi, Tryndamere, Tristana, the idea being that Anivia can defend towers like a boss while the others backdoor. As soon as Anivia (me) died though they immediately took 2 towers, an inhibitor and their Wukong got a quadra kill.
I think a more moderate approach (2 backdoorers and 3 defenders) might be more feasible.

They changed the rules though, original bravery was forced character, forced build, forced masteries, forced skill order, no pots, no wards :D Still awesome though. Full mana akali too stronk.

LB can still be good in the lategame if you manage to force small skirmishes and ambush people. You gotta fight dirty. I've had a really good LB in a recent game, that kept carrying us despite bot only going even (lost tower, more kills, Vayne less cs than Caitlyn), and top kinda winning (Panth cloth+5 beating GP but not able to dominate him). We fell behind in towers and dragons but Vayne wouldn't just go to a full lane and make it devoid of enemy minions.
She got farmed after something like 35-40 minutes, for the last 2-3 teamfights. Before that it was LB trying to snipe Xerath and/or Caitlyn to prevent us from melting. We were trying to pick fights mid near the river, or in the jungle, to catch them at a corner and then LB would start blowing up 2-3 people with some help while we (I was Sona, can't remember our jungler) kept the others isolated long enough for them to become clean-up duty. Had we tried to just teamfight we'd have lost long before Vayne got her farm, tho.

Who cares. Making a stink over nothing.
Does anyone else regularly get 2-3 minute queues for normal solo queue? Feels like it's always longer than it should be.

What realm? EUW its 20s tops, for normals atleast.

NA
I mean I know it's offpeak times a lot of when I play, but that seems really long for a non-draft normal.
