I totally agree with what you say about the meta. Jungle Annie? Why not? "REPORT ANNIE!" It's really quite sad. Breaking away from the meta is often more effective than going with it because it surprises people and they don't know how to counter. I played Morgana at mid, just like you would expect. Except I took Smite and Promote. My team raged, the enemy team ridiculed me. My thoughts were "Control the minions, control the lane". As it was a normal game, I just pushed as much as I could without fear of ganks. It worked a treat. I love deviating away from the meta, it's a shame you get flamed all the time. Perhaps Riot should add something to the Summoner's Code as a response. "A summoner may choose a play style to a champion which you would not expect. In these cases, do not treat them as a troll/feeder/unskilled player, but be patient and see if it works out." Something like that would be nice.
