The League Of Legends 'meta' is an endless source of debate: what the best team and laning composition should be. I get a little frustrated that there seems far too much just adhering to the 'received wisdom', which has been honed from pro-play tactics and doesn't necessarily make sense blindly. (There's a nice SK Gaming explanation of the current meta.)
So I found this pretty impressive. One of the premier pro teams (Azubu) going four supports and one AD carry in a tournament, and winning from a massive deficit at around 20 mins. (The team was Lulu, Janna, Nunu, Taric and Vayne.)
The main video is backed by some MOBA Fire analysis (which also has the video embedded). Some awesome skills in evidence there.
In fact, it's not that different, in that Taric & Vayne is a pretty standard bottom lane combo, as is Nunu jungling and (at a push) Janna as a mage mid. However, Lulu top lane is pretty leftfield and, in the video, you can see that they make clever use of lane-swapping. (I seem to remember Taric & Vayne go top early on.) The 'point' is that they chose 4 supports that, in combination, insanely boost Vayne, hence it being called a 'defend the Vayne' build.
