I had an idea.

Now that supports are more useful, and jungle is less significant, what about running 1-2-2?

You can send whoever top, and for example a caitlyn-nunu mid. With a tanky support and a Vayne bot.

Nunu and the tanky supp both get Targon so their partner scale better. If you are against a melee or short-ranged mid, you could get the red donated to the Caitlyn earlygame, so that you shut down the enemy mid while you get boosted gold from Targon.

Nunu gets 10% innate CDR, Targon, and then Banner of Command. with this, you can almost always have Bloodboil on both of your carries. You can go to a lane, pop Banner, and let the ultraminion do the pushing on that lane. The toplaner can also push a lane if he is someone like Nasus or Jax. Nunu, Vayne, and Cait then just obliterate the towers in the third lane with 15% stronger minions, and two bloodboiled marksmen.

You can still secure objectives like you had a jungler, because Nunu has his built-in smite. If Nunu takes smite to the lane, you can even overcome the jungler on the enemy because you have 2000 true damage burst, and he has 1000. Smite on lane can also help the aforementioned pushing strat.

What's your opinion on this?
