Why follow the LoL meta? [closed]

The LCS is not considered the meta game. Professional LoL is NOT the same as solo queue.

The reason you don't see Morde support or Fiddle jungle is not because it doesn't work sometimes, it's because of a ton of different other reasons in professinoal play.

1. It's not a champion that the player plays. For instance, you won't see Yellowstar trying to make a Morde support work, you'll instead see him try to make his good supports better.

2. They don't work against the team comp they are playing against. The professional LoL scene uses in depth banning and picking based on opponents, teams, players and all kinds of other factors that solo queue does not.

3. You sometimes CAN be losing before the minions start. It's just known that some champion are stronger than others in certain roles. It comes down to the design of the champion and their skill set.

You don't have to follow the professional meta and sometimes you shouldn't. If you can carry yourself to a higher rank with your best champion in the jungle and top lane, pick them!
