Current Metagame

Right now there are two main methods of playing Twisted Treeline:
Duo top with a support like Leona or Annie
Two solo lanes with a jungler
For the most part it seems like the NA region prefers the jungler meta, whereas
the EU region prefers the support meta. I can't say for sure which one is better
, but personally I think the support meta gives a much safer early game, which a
llows you to potentially snowball off of.
Based off of this, I'm splitting this tier list into "roles" similar to the solo
queue 5s list. However, as there are only 3 positions open, I won't be includin
g every champion into this list. If you feel that I've missed out on a strong ch
ampion, please let me know and I'll include it in the next update.

AD/AP Positioning
Due to the way the map is arranged, bot lane is generally considered the "safer"
lane, so the solo laner almost always goes here. However, as this game mode is
somewhat uncommon, you may see teams send two champions to bot lane. As a result
, it's generally best to send an AP bot with long range waveclear, as these cham
pions can deal with both 1v1 and 1v2 lanes.
This means that for the most part, the AD based champion will go top. However, s
wapping these around isn't necessarily a bad thing, but it's a good idea to make
sure that you have a mix of damage types so that the enemy team can't easily it
emize against you.
