[quote=VKAllen]The current laning structure hasn't changed ever since Late Season 1. Laning is practically the structure in which the team is built around. I remember in Early Season 1 the normal laning phase consisted of a Marksman Mid, Fighter pair bot and Support/Marksman top.The reasoning I don't know, but it is the metagame that everybody expects people to play.[/quote]

That's what's normally been the answer when I ask, and it's one of the reasons I don't play League often.
I don't like following _______ tactic, if what's reinforcing the tactic is a cultural thing, not something logically reasoned/explained.
But because I don't blindly follow a cultural thing, players will constantly bitch during the game making the game less enjoyable.

[quote=Lunaire]I guess it just has to do with the way the map is set up. Technically, you could try to bum rush mid as five - it might work against a less coordinated team. But towers in League are strong, so a few people could defend against your siege while your outer towers are left undefended, and that means inhibitors are in danger.There isn't any clear reason for the current lane meta, but there are a couple justifications for the way it is now: @Rare: League is much more fun with friends! There are a lot of details to playing that aren't intuitive, especially if you've never played a MOBA before. It's a way better experience to have others show you the ropes while you play.[/quote]

Alright, but that sounds more like pairing different champions properly, not a matter of ______ class is better in ______ location.
