I played a game recently with a duo top on my team because of two idiots who adamantly wanted that lane solo. We ended up crushing the early game because the enemy top solo had no idea how to handle Karma + Kayle, and the enemy bot lane couldn't deal with my Cho'gath. After totally screwing over the enemy top lane, Karma came bottom and we destroyed them too. Minus some hilarious dives involving running past three turrets and several teamfights with our AP carry displaying aiming skills on par with Hazmat's Gragas video, it was a fairly one-sided game. The reason this sort of insanity works is because most players don't develop their ability to analyze the game, but learn the offensive/defensive capabilities of opponents and team compositions through rote repetition. That works when an opponent sticks to the meta/standard build and matches your expectations, but not when things are thrown for a loop. Antics like running full Armor or MR pages, using non-standard support champions, or weird item builds can be effective by simple virtue of being unfamiliar. | ||

As a bot lane player it just sucks hard being purple due to pick order and map imbalance. If anything they should disconnect first pick from automatically having blue side and maybe even switch it up. http://www.reignofgaming.net/blogs/tuck-esports-inquirer/21592-interview-with-clg-eu-support-krepo-it-just-sucks I don't necessarily agree, but I do find counterjungling easier as blue 9/10 times there are no wards earlygame. | ||

If not, they could just make them spawn 5-10 sec later and get rid of that imbalance. this would clear up the problem, but it's a very inelegant solution. Also, considering the 1v2 lanes, that are becoming more popular, this should become less of an issue. | ||

You get to wolves before they spawn, whereas dbls, not so. Spose u could do wraiths red dbls wraiths wolves blue, but that seems slower than any kind of blue start. Works fine if jungler is going for level two tank, but that doesn't work so well in the ward enemy wraiths era. | ||

Don't know about that. First/Second pick is already a strong dynamic. Having it also tied to which side you start on seems a bit over the top. | ||

Take your jungler too you can delay his blue. | ||
