Adapt to Survive - Thoughts On "ADCs Are OP"

LightningShado··3 votes·384 views

Not to sound like Khazix here, but all these boards about ADCs being too strong kinda needs to stop. Back in the early seasons, the game was WAY more broken then it is now. Just look at RossBoomSocks' series titled R I P. It shows that stupidly broken things like Evelynn Evelynn stacking Sunfire Capes item 3068 and Jax Jax dodging the Fountain with near 100% dodge chance actually existed at one point and we're thankful for that.

Players back in the day were much tougher and had so much more perseverance than I do. Heck, if the game was like it was, then I might've quit a long time ago. It wouldn't be fun to me at all if it was like that. Props to all you old players. And THANK YOU RIOT for fixing your game in the past.

Everything is in a constant state of change. One role, champion, or playstyle will be stronger than anything else ALWAYS. ADCs will die down sooner or later and then people on the boards will be complaining about the NEW champions that are op.

So, guys, just stop saying things are op and ADAPT TO SURVIVE. That's how I got out of Bronze. I complained that every champion was op in some respect when I was in Bronze because I WAS STUPID and ignorant. I needed to grow up.

So people, just chill and remember the time old saying that your mom taught you: "Patience is a virtue."

post-note: this is probably never gonna get past 2 upvotes. it might even get negative... ah how the world works.

Ok, so basically why weren't people complaining about them before?

ADC need nerfs. Riot will probably not nerf it because favoritism.

Ok, so which role do you want the meta to shift to?

Ok, I agree with you. That will happen with time. I don't believe Riot wants to balance the game completely right away, because then it would stay the same and be boring until another champion or rework came out. They'll eventually do it I believe.

Another thing. Please don't hate me. That's all. This thread is dying quickly. Yay, a lack of upvotes!

What about that time when tanks could one shot marksmen?

Evelynn with item 3068 paid that price for a very long time. She was left in the trashcan for a few years before her rework.

ADCs, on the other hand, are favorites of Riot. They will never be left underpowered for too long.

Has the rework already happened? Are you from the future?

Joking aside, they are the A D CARRIES. Aren't they doing their job correctly in the current meta?

Her rework did happen. It's her current kit that is in the game now. If you want to see her old kit, you can look it up in the History tab in LoL wikia. Her **relaunch **hasn't happened yet.

ADCs are doing their job too well in the current meta. With the ability to reach late game damage faster during the mid game, they are crowding out other roles who aren't progressing as fast. Plus, they deal more damage in a shorter period of time, with more protections offered by tanks and supports compared to previous years, thus keeping them safer. It's easier to save an ADC now than it was before.

Ok, I agree. Now patience.
