By Joe Melillo
5 Worst Bot Lane Duos in League of Legends Patch 10.19 takes a look at which dynamic duos are destined to deflate your rank. Rather than waste your time playing ineffective bot lanes, take a look at which duos you should dodge immediately, as opposed to those that are destined for success.
5 Worst Bot Lane Duos in League of Legends Patch 10.19
Kalista and Yuumi
The evergreen worst bot lane combo on the planet. Kalista's ultimate allows her to catapult her support onto an enemy, while Yuumi stays safely attached to her ADC. The duo basically negates the fact that Kalista even has an ult--it's not what you want.
Kog'Maw and Pyke
These two champions have such opposite lane philosophies that its ridiculous. Kog"Maw rarely becomes useful until about 20 minutes into the game, while Pyke feels fairly useless if he isn't applying early pressure. Both champions are viable, but with different lane partners.
Varus and Shen
While these two excel at locking down their opponents, they are lacking in the damage department. Any type of sustain support will be able to keep their ADC alive through the crowd control chain, which practically negates the strengths of this lane. Due to the low kill pressure, this is a scaling ADC's dream.
Syndra and Brand
This lane can do a lot of damage--and I mean A LOT of damage. The problem, however, is that they are extremely vulnerable to ganks and all-ins. They have little to no crowd control and are simply dead if they get jumped on. For this reason, the lane is best served by picking only one of these mages at a time.
Sivir and Veigar
This is another lane that can shoot itself in the foot with their playstyles. Veigar support benefits from freezing the lane so he can slowly stack his passive until he turns into a late game monster. Sivir, on the other hand, excels at pushing lanes fast and taking advantage of poor enemy macro play. They are best sticking with lane partners who better align with their goals.
