My friend and I were talking about how LoL has loads of shorties - I happen to like all of them. So the question is if you were to field a team made of entirely shorties (problem being I don't think there is a shorty tank unless you count the armadillo) who would you have and why? Furthermore how would you team them up and lane them?

Amumu is a shorty tank and in my opinion the best in the game.

Veigar-mage spike/stun
Teemo-dps with slowing mushrooms
Tristana-carry
Annie-mage spike/stun
Amumu-high aoe dps and loads of hp and deff tank

It would be cool to try but not the best combo because theres no melee dps altho they would own in team fight with tibers, veigars aoe stun, amumus ult, and tristanas ult.

How would you lane them?

I have not played teemo yet, plan to, but have noticed that I hate playing against him. Proper gear build seems to make his poison a NIGHTMARE.

Heimer, Heimer, Heimer, Heimer, Heimer

A group of my buddies have been discussing this concept for a couple of weeks now. When we actually do it, I'll post our (probably hilariously one-sided) results.

When you say "shorties" you are obviously talking about the Yordles

So your team would have to be:

Teemo DPS
Corki DPS
Heimer Support
Amumu Tank
Veigar Mage

side note: Tristana is a Megling, not a Yordle
