So I decided to play somthing different today. I suck at adc and it's rare to see me doing good. What happened was I decided to ay vayne for fun in normals since I've seen vayne alot lately and I heard she's strong. I went 14/7/5. How I did that , I don't know. I suck at adc. I don't play it that much, I don't use vayne for that reason, and my mechanics suck. So is vayne a case of low skill floor high skill cap or was that a bit of an anomaly.
Touch My Box2 votesYes, low skill floor high skill cap.
To play her well, you need to be good.
To play her averagely, you need 2500 gold to buy statik shiv and then roflstomp the competition with Tumble crits.
LordGeovanni1 votesone item to get off is low skill floor ........ [zombie-brand-mindblown]
EndlessSorcerer1 votesNot very.
Skill-cap is high, but the skill-floor is rather low.
LordGeovanni1 votesIts pretty high you just avoid people with poke skills. or dive into them if you have crit and attack speed
d4rkshock1 votesJust tumble away from skillshots. It's the long range auotattackers you've got to look out for and mf q's
LordGeovanni1 votesyes and she can damage them just as much as the can damage her with her movement speed when moveing towards champions and tumble she has harder autoattacks than the average carry with crit and true damage. the things that counter her only slow her early game.
Niyumi1 votesAbout as high a skillfloor as any other ADC (in other words, skillfloor is 0), and one of the lowest skillcaps in the game, considering she's 100% targeted and literally one shots people with hyper mobility, true damage, CC and more sustain than Vlad ever had (yet he was nerfed for his sustain).
LordGeovanni1 votesYou obviously dont know what a skill floor is. but we are a community should educate. Low skill floor means its hard to pick up and you have its a longer way to the skill ceiling. High skill floor is when you pick up champions and the are effective immediately. I am of the opinion that adcs are one of the highest skill floor classes because of all the other classes that have to be inbetween them before they get in danger and the range of which they are effective which is the longest except for global ults such as karthus and soraka. but the have global ults themselves with sigificantly low cooldowns than semi global teleports that require you to not only leave where you are and also do the damage but global ezreal r or jinx r only need point in general direction ult and forget if you hit fight shifting ult if not your enemy already ran and you have low cooldown ult. Ults that garentee damage and death are lower cooldown than ones that are mostly utility and require team work to get any kills out of. Low skill ceiling is when you can only do so much with a champion and at medium efficiency no matter how skilled you are with them. High skill ceiling is when you can do alot of things very effectively with lots of champion skill but i am of the opinion that with most high skill ceiling champions in this game so greatly out class lower skill celing classes that you only need to be okay at a high skill ceiling champion to be even with if not beat out a champion that isnt given much to work with in kit and hence low skill skill ceiling. like how nobody could do anything to perma slow Azir on his release perma slow Aurelion Sol. cant catch kalista or her soul bound. cant damage kalista with melee champions that arent assassins. True damage and crit working together to make fighting firoa and vayne both the wrong choice if you arent a burst mage. Fiora doesnt go crit anymore but is relatively tanky mobile and heals a ton (take away the healing and lower the true damage and she wouldnt be complete bs to play against.
Niyumi1 votesSkill floor = The minimum amount of skill required to play a champion and not feed.
Skill ceiling = The amount of skill and practice needed to play a champ at their highest potential (relative to other champs).
ADC skill floor = 0, ADC skill cap = 1. The lowest in the game in both regards, yet the strongest class by far.
Zelorxon1 votesOh but it doesn't matter, in your elo people will just stand still "PLEASE DADDY KILL ME, I LIKE IT ANYWAY" so of course you'll have plenty of time to stack those rings and get free damage. Try playing her against an opponent that actually responds to external stimuli.
