Your list has some weak calls like Corki and Rumble, which are somewhat poppular.

Thing is meta shifts, pro games trends and fotm affect champion picks and I still don't think it is bad.

Take Victor, he is a medium range mage with low movility and somewhat difficult to use (hence, it is understandably unpoppular). Still, some people flavor him and play him quite well...now, Xerath and Ziggs are kind of fotm and there are those that favor them too. In this case they are actually very usefull in some circumstances, not just trendy, which means that 1v1 they may come even, but both are kind of better picks for strategic and teamcomp reasons.

This doesn't mean the likes of Victor are not viable, just that right now, in the hands of someone that understands the game, there are arguably better picks...(this in turn means that if you really know Victor, chances are you'll stomp that Xerath-because-pros)
