For me it's about a players ability to adapt, if they can't begin to understand I'm going off meta by doing something silly like holding gold/bot lane with a hefty and mobile tank with no boots, and we need a healer and MORE battle cruiser (in the mtg, specifically edh, term) style tanks and they refuse to help, then I'm sorry, they earned their bronze medal.

I've done mm exp 'top', mm roam 'support', mid mm, split pusher roam, Gold 'bot' tank, jg tank, split push mage roam, jungle hunter/kneecapper roam(my old fav that's gotten harder but still fun, works really good when enemy team has bad teamwork and coordination and better when they tilt and chase [I've built so much move speed, they can only catch and kill me with a dash and some kind of rooting effect]. It usually comes down to player attitude, ability, creativity, knowledge, and fluidity of playstyle
