Just provide them better base stats to defense/offense and some durability on items that wont allow bruisers to also abuse. Honestly the "crit meta" was silly as being hit by 1000+ crits is terrible design as well. So a smoother dmg curve to ADC is very good direction to go, however they have been balanced around the old crit system and the "glass cannon" concept which really just isnt fun or balanced design once you remove the cannon part.

As an ADC if I am ahead of jax lets say he shouldnt be following me around the map hoping to catch me out knowing he will 100% kill me. This isnt rock paper scissors the problem with ADC atm is they are such a free kill since they get ZERO defense (no adc items really have any defensive stats) usually very poor kits (next to no CC and terrible scaling) and now that their dmg has been toned down they just cant compete. Everyone aims for the ADc now not because they are big dmg, but more they are instantly killed.

So just stay the course you brought their dmg down, but then they need some defense. Im not even asking to be able to beat irelia 1 v 1 when we are equal level and items I am asking that I can kill her 1 v 1 when IM AHEAD 1 item. As it is now Im am pretty sure irelia with a tri force will destroy an adc with 3 items lol, LIKE DESTROY not even close. Or if we catch irelia out 3v1 she will still dirt nap the adc before the 3 can kill her. BTW its not just irelia she is just an example.

You have a support, flash, heal (most likely), GA, QSS and I hope a brain. Most of the times if you get os you positioned yourself bad. Improve

each adc has their own defenses/actives (ashe ult/volley or jinx snare/slow as a example) but beyond if they make past that heres the support whos a wild card we could preserve the said adc from dying by killing or buffing or disabling said enemy or enemies. then theres itemization lifesteal and qss finally a tanky deaths dance heres the encore its phantom dancer. but yes they do need real armor items with some or little dmg attached to it like item 3026 there needs to be a addition ap item too not just a item 4403 i feel there should be a item that has no stats attached to it just passives/active. (like how yu gi oh where theres a monster with 0/0 attack/defense points you know there a reason why it has that number hint hint: strong effect in the said card.)

riiiight, because the main problem in league of legends has always been bruisers abusing adc items, and not the other way around. lol.

If you are and adc, you have to relay on your team/support. Adcs aren't duelist class. The day adcs will be selfish, you will see only them in game, expecially knowing the disparity in lane in a melee vs ranged matchup. Even tower range isn't studied to help melee to farm safely...

one thing I've thought of is a muliplicative of your average DPS haven't finished running the numbers though but basically this:

if you do 100 damage per auto with 0% crit, its 100x1= 100 per auto if you do 100 damage per auto with 10% crit, its 100x1.1= 110 per auto (10 hits 9 non crit, 1 crit; 900+200=1100/10) if you do 100 damage per auto with 30% crit, its 100x1.3= 130 per auto (10 hits, 7 non crit, 3 crit 700+600=1300/10) etc.

what its basically saying is you have perfect RNG and crit ever X number attacks out of 10 to average out your damage till you get to 100% where just are x2 every attack. My thought is that this will just take the RNG fights of 40% crits against each other to see who crits more for who wins the fight.

Time flow of adc

  1. They had teams built around them. Then riot took that away.
  2. They build guardian angel. Riot took away survivability from it.
  3. They started building ninja tabi. And riot gutted it.
  4. They started building steriks gage. Riot took that away
  5. They started taking relic shield. Riot gutted it.
  6. Fleet footwork. Riot gutted it.
  7. Over heal. Riot gutted it.
  8. Protection supports. Riot gutted them.

Why is riot so against an adc being able to survive a light breeze?

Now we are at the point where if a talon farts next to a jinx she dies.
