Idea for test: Sighstone on ALL characters! (Aka the strongest split push comp)

We have seen games where everyone had GP/10 items. Why not give it a twist, and use one of the best cost/reward items in the game?
Not only that, you have pratically a big map-hack - which should be enough to make your team very confortable to push all lanes. At the same time.
Ideal picks would be strong small-skirmish champions and strong pushers. Things like Nidalee, Jayce, Twisted Fate. Pick a very dominant laner and let the jungler camp botlane to give them an edge. Make the enemy cower in their base early in the game, while you drain every resource of them. And focus anyone daring to wield an oracle's.

FRIDAY TEST AGENDA: 01/18/2013

General Concepts:
- Duo Kill Lanes
- AD Carry-less Compositions
- Carry Junglers
- Mass Sightstone
Specific Subjects:
- Jungle Ezreal
- Jungle Syndra
- Mid Maokai
And more!

Official testing begins at 23:00 GMT (+00:00). If you cannot be present by that time should come whenever you can. We'll be testing so long as we have researchers, so it will continue for entire evening and into the night presuming there is interest. All testing will be coordinated from the TROLLS chat channel and through TeamLiquid's TeamSpeak.

We will have multiple test groups and/or in-houses depending on the number of people present. As it is unlikely that the number of researchers will be an exact multiple of 5, one or more groups may sortie with unsuspecting pubs.

I will stream all tests that I am a part of at http://www.twitch.tv/montegomerylol.

I could dig up my level ~12 NA smurf without champs but with 200 ping.

Good idea, yes/yes?

I am currently experimenting with triple aegiedea on a single champion.

Test runs show that it's possible to win games. But not likely.

I'm aware that Jungle Ezreal has been done, recently at that, but there weren't many other specific champions/roles people were looking to test.

I'm not aware of any recent research done on mid Maokai.

I've seen some mid Maokais back in my day.

Ya know, when the hills went upwards on either way you walked and the winters were ALWAYS colder and we had to fight dinosaurs with our bare fists.
