ADC was very boring this season

I honestly never had fun playing ADC at all this season. Which is weird because ADC was my 2nd favorite role last season. I hope the marksmen changes will be what I was expecting.

As an ADC you cant 1v1 anyone except the enemy ADC or Support.

The next problem is that its very hard to carry in soloq because your team dont care about protecting you.

The Games feel much harder as ADC than other roles -.-

Yeah this. I cant tell you how many lobbies Iv called "fill" in, and about somewhere around 5.9 ish, Iv been ADC most every game, where I used to almost always be jungle or support. ADCs just get fucked in solo Q where you get zero peel, but everyone is still trying to shut you down. If your support gets 2 kills, they think theyre the carry now and will fight you for kills and CS sending you into irrelevance. I have had THE WORST supports too, most of the season.

Mostly all you end up doing is trying not to get pounced on by Rengar or Shyvana as ADC, cause lets face it, your free money in solo Q.

This is one of the reason Vayne is so META, cause all she has to do is level up and have a BotRK to kill cause she scales into a monster. Her roll and knockbak/stun gets her out of so much trouble honestly, its not hard.

Its one of the reasons Iv been playing Ashe this season a lot, cause even with no peel from my team I can initiate from a mile away with my ult and scout dragon and baron all game while the enemy is MIA. Shoot some W into teamfights for some light CC and if the enemy tank is still standing slow them with Q, and watch their armor fall off if I built a Black Cleaver. Another thing with all the Darius and Garens running about, I build Black Cleaver and Ghost Blade, and a BotRK against those guys.... Is it traditional AD itemization? No but this season no one cares if the marksman is the carry, so why build crit stacking items?

Im not even playing ADC, cause this season has no roles anymore. Everyone is a carry, assassins carry, tanks carry, mages carry, the only thing that isnt carrying is ADC marksmen unless your Vayne cause she can bust tanks, and anyone else, because she scales and only needs a bork.

META this season is was created by those people you see on the forums that say stuff like "our ranged overlords" or "of course you won the lane your ranged" and the standby "Ugh, ADCs are all broken with their crits."

Sometimes I feel like the balance team is throwing darts, and this season has been almost nothing but buff darts, and when that happend the early games got a lot better for a lot of champs... and "carries" by their name have to be carried by their team, until they can turn around and carry their team. With so many "anti carry" OP champs that can stumble into a teamfight and grab a penta-kill there is no reason to waste time carrying a weak-ass marksman into something useful. The game and the players reflect this, by making Vayne the single sought after maksman in pretty much every match.

Jinx, vayne bann and tristana first pick.

Safe pick and strong late game hypercarry. Is this a good option for main ADC like me?

Winning lane doesn't even matter as ADC anymore, just keep farming and let your team carry you.

That's what it feels like honestly

Haha... ADC's are broken as fck and the whole thing the meta is revolving around right now... In competitive, why does everyone have TP? to snowball botlane. Why laneswaps? To make botlane safe. etc etc

Good riddance, game is more diverse than ever now that ADCs aren't the entire focus of the team

Vayne MORE Darius DIVERSE Garen THAN Mordekaiser EVER Fiora

It may be diverse in diamond or whatever, but you got to play down here to get a look of what I'm seeing every game.

ADC has never really been fun to me, at least not as fun as Mages or Support. With the fact that Crit Chance is a broken and unhealthy system in place and ADC is about right clicking and being mobile, its not surprising that people would quickly find it stale.

I've liked playing ADC since the bloodthirster change last season.

SaltyToplaneGoatOct 12, 20151 votes

Let's hope they remove crit and push the focus more on marksman abilities than just looking at who has the biggest crit-dong, making all abilities useless because rightclick deals by far more reliable damage. Role and items both lack diversity since season one,
