Basically, in other terms, League of Legends is ruled by conformity.

In short, everyone follows the meta, simply a set of basic rules established by popular, expert players of the game.

Don't get me wrong, sometimes following the meta is a good thing. But what I'm saying is, do you really want to just follow the 'crowd' because what they're doing is the new gold standard.

I mean, maybe I don't have to play Support Sona. Maybe I want to play Jungle Sona instead.

The pont is, don't let other players guide your gameplay. They say you should get a Black Cleaver when you want a Last Whisper? Get the damn Last Whisper then, because it's YOU who wants it.
