Part of the problem with carry junglers in competitive play is that items stack multiplicatively. So you see CLG giving Froggen half the jungle farm and then does absurd amounts of damage while the support jungler can still be useful with just 2k gold of items.

Giving a ton of farm to a few beats giving a little farm to everyone (up to the point where the low farm guys can get meaningful aura items).

Guys guys, the reason for melee dps being not viable is as such.

Midgame = CC > Dmg

That is all.
Hey! How you doin'?

there is nothing that isn't viable in this game, only things which have not had their viability proven

I'd also argue CC >= mobility > damage. Highly mobile champs really are the terror of mid/late game, for instance Ahri or most Assassins.

Highly mobile team, yes, because you can move around very easily.

But assassins, no. IF one thing, the WC showed us that assassins don't have a big role in the current meta (Assassin AP and AD). We haven't really seen any ahri, kata, akali, in this tournament

CC, huge AOE, huge wave clear are much much more valuable than bursting down your opponent (Because at higher level, the chance of bursting down someone is smaller)

Any idea on the RP/IP prices for that? And is it a temporary sale, or permanent?

i would say the jungle meta in high level games has been decided. and that is to give most of the jungle farm to laners. this was not intended and will be changed in season 3. if you havent read the riot posts season 3 jungle will be a cross of season 1 and season 2 jungle. this should make the jungle once again the domain of the jungler, and bring back farm junglers and carry junglers like shyv and trynd (and fiora will be strong as a duelist jungler more then likely), not to mention control junglers like nunu (and also shyv).

and im sorry if my posts are confrontational. its just really obnoxious to constantly see people saying things like they are fact when they are really opinions. furthermore, it is kind of beside the point if shyvana is outclassed in tournament games (which i dont even think is true. Saint draws shyv bans, and the very fact that she was deemed good enough to play for a million dollars says she is not outclassed). none of us play in (meaningful) tournaments, and what happens in them has little to no bearing on our games.

Welcome to the world of 2k elo trying to explain why certain things are or are not viable.

While this is true, it's also the only environment in which the phrase "I wish X was viable" holds any relevant meaning.

Everything is viable in low level solo queue. Over the vast majority of the ladder, your fundamentals make a much larger impact than picking a "top-tier" hero. In the context of solo queue, there's absolutely nothing that makes Fiora not worth playing (which is where the whole discussion came up).

The only real factor that limits what you can play in solo queue is that if you play something really out of the ordinary, your teammates will think you're trolling. And what people consider "troll" picks is largely dictated by what they see high Elo players play--which DOES trickle down from tournament play.
