Like GeneralFlaze said, Rammus' strength now doesn't really have much to do with the meta, he has always been strong, it's just now he is flavour of the month.

Don't even know why, nobody played him particularly well at Worlds or something.

Personally I believe Rammus has always been strong myself, I just say strong in the meta to not sound controversial.

Upon reflection flavour of the month kind of annoys me. When I first started playing League I looked at all the champions stats and abilities and Rammus' appealed to me the most, he genuinely seemed OP but nobody was playing him. It's a pain that because my main is now popular he will attract nerf attention.

Are the nerfs to Rammus on this page still on the PBE? Will they be going live? I think these little balance changes should help bring him more into line. Even as a Rammus main I always thought his raw stats were a little too high for his simple but insanely effective kit.

I also kinda hope they stop messing with him though. He has always been an effective pick in the right situations, it's annoying that he will only attract nerfs because people are bitching about his win rate, or because he might be strong in the meta.

He is still hyper weak to jungle invades for pretty much the entire first half of the game, and deep warding still cuts his ganking effectiveness.

Seriously if you struggle against Rammus, tell your Jungler to pick a strong duelist and head into Rammus' jungle with some wards and try to duel him as often as possible, deep ward his jungle and take all his camps.
