"Innovation" - Obviously it's not possible for a champion to be innovative all by themselves. What this category means is a champion will be moved up in the list if they changed the way people think about the game. In Season 2, the most popular junglers were supportive types like Maokai or Amumu. Gambit Gaming was able to break the mold by playing aggressive invading junglers like Shyvana, a decision which in the long run led to today's bruiser-centric jungler meta.

4) Uniqueness - The final important trait is uniqueness. If a champion could do something that no other champion could do at a high level, that will impact its placement. For junglers, one example of a unique jungler is Evelynn. Her invisibility means that players will always struggle to play against her, so she's never truly fallen out of the meta in spite of repeated nerfs.
