That sad part is that I agree with ADC's and Enchanters being too strong but the boards QQ has gone so far that its just ridiculous.

An assassin will win against an ADC if fed, but if not(say both have 1 or 2 items) the ADC should win every time, putting it frankly, ADC's lifesteal is too much for a non-fed assassin to handle along with Crit's. In addition, lately ADC's have begun to hit their Power Spike's earlier than previously, so what would originally be 30-40 minutes is now 15-25, giving an assassin less time to actually get fed and shut them down. And once we get past that threshold of "Late-Game" assassins cannot compete 1v1 with an ADC, the crit damage and lifesteal is just way to much, and they don't have skillshots to hit so it's simple right-clicking at that point, it's not like assassins have defensive item's to help combat fed ADC's. Which is another problem, because of the prevalence of Bot Lane 4 man's, Bot lane focused team comps and games, ADC's are much more likely to get fed, which makes an assassin who can't get fed worthless.

Though honestly, 80% of the time, this didn't happen and the assassin just didn't play it correctly or chose to attack the Sup and ADC at the same time, which is an AWFUL idea considering ADC's with a Sup have effectively 4000 health now.

Let me correct something.

The only ADCs who are building anything life steal related is Kog, Varus and Kalista which is BotRK

Most ADCs these days just have Ardent + Warlords as a life steal source and one point into Vampirism which is 0.4% life steal, most common ADC build these days is Boots, IE, Double zeal, LW and usally GA as last or substitute that with Hurricane if they have AoE.

draven doesn't build lifesteal hehexd also most adcs build a scimitar at some point.

Penns5 votes

You dont really misplay as kat tho. You just get punished for having delays and counterplay unlike most adcs. If the Lucian dashes out of my fizz ult, i barely misplayed, he just outplayed me. Problem with that is that i cant outplay their auto attack but im supposed to be the one winning

PePsiLemoNN2 votes

Oh so you miss your skillshots but still want to 1shot the ADC , ok ..

Penns2 votes

I dont miss, they dodge. What can they miss or what can I outplay? Thats the problem, adcs can outplay assaasins but assassins cant outplay adcs that arent like Xayah or Jhin (tho xayah has her ult as hard counter), so the newer adcs.

NLGG3R BEATER2 votes

Yes ADCs can totally outplay and 1v1 Akali by dodging her skillshots :D

I'd also like to see an ADC 1v1ing me with MasterYi item 3087 item 3031 item 3072.

RaptureRage2 votes

it's not about adc's 1vs1 assasins you idiot, its about adc being unkillable due to league of shields , league of tanks, league of peel

Doozku2 votes

I've actually had it happen, not in this meta but close enough. I was a fed AF Rengar and I dive onto the fed ADC but I only do 3/4s of the ADC's hp while the ADC drain tanks back to full health and kills me.

But in this meta whenever I lose 1v1s to ADC its because as SA Kayn I miss my W and just misplay super fucking hard and die.

Celestial Lion122 votes

Diver, not assassins :P

Celestial Lion124 votes

since when has anyone ever built diana anything other than full ap. and played her an other way than just trying to blow up the back line.

Kloqdq1 votes

Diana doesn't have a true out, only ins. She is more durable by nature of her kit and works by going into a fight and is able to stay in it. Someone like Zed ones to go in, blow someone up and get out. Diana wants to blow someone up but is able to stay and keep fighting in the thick of it.

Diana is a diver.

I don't really understand what do you mean "has gone so far".

The Boards is a community of sorts, you can't expect us to disagree with each other when there is a real problem at hand. Ofcourse it'll be spammed to an extent to get Riot's attention because they do communicate here.

Doozku4 votes

Too far as in every 2 posts is the same QQ that adds nothing to the discussion and therefore has no reason to exist other than "hehe adc op plz nerf". It's why riot avoids these boards, because of the echo chamber effect.

rtbf2256182411 votes

Honestly, the meme "hehe xd op nerf. Also Ahri is best" posts i've NEVER seen reach Hot.

But then again, it's been nearly 3 years. I could be wrong on a FEW exceptions.

Regardless, Riot doesn't avoid the Boards cuz of such a miniscule problem. It avoids them when it becomes incoherent stupidity like begging to do something without solutions that isn't even trolling.

Doozku4 votes

I consider posts like "The best assassin" or "mage items suck" or "adc/enchanters are too op" posts to be brainless QQ not because they don't suggest stiff but because it's all been said before on another post so you are literally adding nothing to the problem. Your post may as well not exist.

Shepherd o Souls3 votes

As wild as the boards are right now, you still have to consider that people will voice out until they get change, like any protest or act in history. This is just the league equivalent of it. I just wish the discussions were more civilized and thought out than circle jerking and telling riot to fire each other because they can't balance the game.

People don't understand that riot doesn't want to talk to people who are shooting garbage out their mouths every time they post, and that's why you see them replying to other posts instead of the jerk threads.

Hey,

Because this thread has already been up awhile and generated a lot of attention, I will leave it up and unlocked. However, for future posts, satire like this is best posted in Memes & Games. Gameplay is specifically for serious discussion about the game.

He's not wrong, though. This is an M&G post, it really doesn't fit in Gameplay.

no not really it's a common logic you'd die to an assassin as an adc in a 1v1 so no one complains about it.

People complain about it, but we call those people idiots.

The boards has a knack for making you despise some of the people here even when you agree with them. =_=

Evil Yasuo2 votes

I started playing Jinx mid on my main account and it 1. is better for endgame/teamfights 2. outshines any assassin 3. has easier laning 4. is easier to just aa the enemy and not miss skills 5. can kill tanks The only thing going for assassins is like jumping or going through walls.

Velzard of Koz2 votes

Yeah it was funny with the first post but the joke got old. But then again, it's a meme and they must be repeated to be kept alive.

DAE think that tanks are too hard to kill, assassins can kill me too fast, adc do too much attack damage late game, siege mages have too much range, duelists are too hard to fight one on one, and supports have too much utility?
