Many recent ones are Darius, Draven, Jayce Varus, Fiora, Nautilus, Ziggs, and Lulu

I probably missed some, and these are not in any particular order.

The thing is, before Zyra was released, Riot released a whole shitload of bruiser tops/junglers/adc. Pretty much they released a bunch of AD champs in a row, and most people were pretty pissed. I was a bit ticked off myself because I main AP mid.

So now they are 'compensating' for the string of bruisers/ad champs by releasing some AP champs.

I started playing LoL when Sejauni was released, early this year.

Lulu was the most recent support, Draven was the most recent ad carry. Lulu was released sometime around April or March 2012, Draven was in June i think.

In Nov-Dec 2011, Riot released a bunch of AP carries, namely Ahri, Xerath, and Viktor. They were released pretty much one after another. So maybe there is a pattern to this? Long string of AP champs, then long string of AD champs, with some tanks or supports stuffed in between. I'm not too sure though, I don't work at Riot lol.

There hasn't been any long chains of a certain type of champ since July, so maybe the pattern is changing? I dunno, but thanks for reading another one of my long posts :)
