So I was thinking of how the meta could change (because it's getting kinda stale to me, not ineffective, just kinda boring that it's always the same), and I had an idea. How do you guys think 2 junglers would work?

The idea is 2 junglers, one being a mana-based AP jungler like Elise, Cho'gath or Amumu, the other being a manaless AD champ like Tryn, Lee Sin or Rengar. At the start of the game, the AP jungler takes blue and the AD jungler takes red, then they immediately invade, helping each other to get the opposite buffs from the enemy jungle (dependant on situation, of course).

This way you'd have 2 junglers for ganking and effective jungle control (one can counter while the other jungles friendly camps) and each lane is solo, giving more farm to the champs in those lanes. Obviously you'd have to replace the ADC with maybe a tank or a brawler or something.

Opinions?

But... But beginner bot game?
Sometimes (okay, most of the time) I just like to see pretty colors and watch things-that-aren't-me fall down. I'm also fairly terrible at this sort of AoS. I can actually manage alright against intermediate bots, but... most of the time that I've played them, a significant portion of the other players didn't. Beginner bots, there are no fucks to give. Anything goes. You'll win anyway. Pretty colors, things fall down.

... I did lose that one TT match where both the other players D/Ced at the start of the match, though. Barely.

E: People. People! Revelation. Support rengar... perhaps suboptimal. Slightly. Somewhat.

E2: 7 second CD on Thresh's Q is just... just beautiful.

Observations:

1. Varus is glorious on ARAM

2. Uh, guys? I wouldn't really advise rushing Hurricane on him...

I mean, I get that most people have no idea what Varus is or does, this is their first time playing him, and so they're maybe gonna just follow the recommended item build. I still can't help but grimace at building AS on one of the strongest AD pokers in the game so you can detonate more enemies for an extra 3% of their MHP.

Well it's not a new idea but it can work, generally problems are though in the 2vs1 lane, their adc can get quite fed and zone out the enemy champ making them lose xp and gold. You could then have a double gank with both junglers but if it's warded and the gank is spotted then you can have 2 people not doing much.

It really depends on how the opponents react. Doing warding and having lanes respond to counter-jungling can make it very dangerous for the double jungle team and then they have a risk of not gaining as much xp. If the enemy don't ward much then double jungle can be very effective and you can afford your 1vs2 lane to not be ahead by much as all other lanes will be ahead.

It's probably better to have junglers who can synergise well with each other. I would say Nunu for your mana jungler and Renekton/Riven/Lee-Sin for your manaless jungler, much easier to invade and ganks can synergise effectively with Nunu buffing both junglers and then slowing target while other jungler can close and do damage.

So there's a sneak peak on an upcoming champion, Ao Shin.
I'm excited to see a new champion who isn't a humanoid. Also, keep in mind that Ao Shin is not the next champion that's going to be released.

Did you mean Lee Sin? :P

He looks pretty interesting. Too bad he's not coming out for a while :c

Ao Shin looks super awesome. I want more dragons.

Maybe a threes dragon-team will work once this guy and Dragonmaster Swain are both out.

Hate Varus so much.  People hate on Nidalee, but he's 10x worse.

Finish learning to play before you ranked. Everyone will hate you if you don't

but when is "finished learning how to play" defined?

Technically you can never be finished learning how to play, since you'd get something from each game. >__>
