We all know ADCs are out of hand but it gets pretty annoying seeing multiple post about people not being able to kill adcs being extremely exaggerated and upvoted.
They are strong and nothing is wrong with discussing their state but could we maybe not drop our IQs in the process?

That is a lot to ask of this board, specifically.

Riot clearly doesn't
Cowseed3 votesRiot may not fully understand the situation or is intentionally not giving a fuck about balance because of the new runes so any changes they make now will go to waste anyways and this is a problem. The boards are moving from discussion the issue or trying to get it into riots heads into trying to be a bigger meme than it's ever been.
Dextix LT1 votesThe issue has been discussed to death, it is time for action.
Cowseed1 votesWHAT action can we as player take other than discussing the issue? If we can only discuss the situation at any point we really shouldn't be catering to the salt fueled opinion that more or less extends riots ability to ignore the issue because the badly written post make it look like it isn't even an issue at all! These also block out the actual discussions and fill the front page with post were OP says "Muh ADC is broken" then the replies are all "YEAH! ADCS ARE BROKEN!". Is that productive?
Dextix LT1 votesMake sounds until Riot "balance" team gets off their arses and starts working. Again, this issue has been discussed OVER and OVER again, and the conclusions have been made already.
What is more needed to be discussed when EVERYTHING has been covered already yet Riot does not seem to care at all?
The salt posts are the ONLY thing Riot ever sees. They simply IGNORE any possible discussion, so enough sound has to be made for them to get off their asses.
You think i like those threads? I would LOVE to have only discussions on the boards, but Riot doesnt give a fuck about those. They did not care when DQ was implemented, when FAILED reworks were going through, when class "updates" were clearly shite. THEY. DO. NOT. CARE. about discussion.
The only thing that has EVER had an effect on their actions is constant spamming, that is the only thing they react to.
GayFluffyUnicorn4 votesMaybe because people are sick of seeing how riot ignores glaring issues for months coming up with one excuse after another.
Athenes Lulu7 votesEven better when they claim that tanks/supports have absolutely "nothing" contributing to this such problem.
Dextix LT1 votesThey do contribute to the problem, but they are not the main problem. Can we actually fix the problem itself first instead of targeting fringe things that only contribute to it?
Pentium21 votesExactly, having big ass meatballs with a ton of CC does not really enable bruisers to do their job, you can do a godlike play on lee sin to pick out someone while the enemy sejuani can either choose to fuck your plans up or just fuck your team instead, so you are kind of forced into playing tanks yourself.
You need punching bags to soak up CC, you need your own CC.
Cinderhulk changes, enabled tank junglers, stoneplate is pretty much what tanks take since the GA changes and it could be argued, that it is even better, Adaptive helm cucks battlemages.
Tank reworks/changes, a lot of indirect/direct shift in power for stuff like cho (he is not a tank, by definition, but is a tank in the sense of soaking up dmg).
Ah yeah and ofc there are outliers such as Jarvan being a frequent pick.
Armor shred, % current hp dmg, backline acces (wombocombos), the play pattern of the champion is kind of similar to lee sin if you think about it, except the dmg does not fall off that much and it is way less mechanical in terms of execution and his E->Q is one of those abilities, which is really hard to interrupt and takes priority over other things such as WW ult when colliding, which is pretty funny since Infinite Duress is supposedly turning WW unstopable during the dash.
Also on Tristana being strong and popular, last time I remember it happening was in season 5's tank meta.
Adcs are more important when your team has to fight tanks, than when the teamfights last 5 second because everyone bursted each other to death, longer the fight, the more useful sustained dmg is.
Sp33d Zer07 votesYou are on the boards, every other thread will be either: A) Marksman hate B) Mage itemization complaints C) Assassin moaning D) Insert strongest support item here bitching E) New mordekaiser bug.
Thefrostyviking2 votesF) Complaining about X champion getting a skin while Y hasn't had one in ages.
DuskDaUmbreon2 votesG) Yasuo hate threads.
Daze Clover4 votesWho is this guy telling us, how we can not talk about the state of ADC. I just gave a downvote for this discussion.
Cowseed2 votesYou forgot the question mark at the end of the first sentence.
Raoul3 votesThe joke is, that people still think RIOT will ever lay hands on their favorite role. They have been OP since season 1 and nothing will ever change about that.
GayFluffyUnicorn2 votes^ It's sad that people don't get it but from riots pov it's just natural that they cater so hard towards botlane. Majority of their playerbase is shit at the game and it's even harder as supp/adc but that's the nature of the role and so to cater towards them they just overbuff them so botlane mains stop crying. Miss the days when tarics, leonas, blitz would come top to gank me and get me ahead instead of jerking their adc overlords.
Raoul2 votesYeah, Supports are literally ADC slaves in this game, because a semi fed ADC will still beat a super fed top or midlaner every game.
Biscuit Bite2 votesI laugh so hard. One month ago, before worlds everyone cried how bad the adcs are, now, that the worlds are here, and they are watching how a role and a champion SHOULD be played, they cry how broken he is. People will always cry like that. (mostly noobs only, cough, cough)
[sg-ahri-1]
Dextix LT1 votesWrong. The meme you are referencing was at the START of the season, and it was a stupid meme that was blown up by adc' mains. It did not even have much traction. That was the time when adc's were balanced, when they needed to think about such things as positioning and needed the help of a support.
One month ago the boards was FILLED with complaints about the adc role and how the supports were made to cater to adc.
If you spout bullshit, at least factcheck beforehand. Thanks.
Biscuit Bite1 votesWhy is a main support talking about adc problems?
[zombie-brand-clap]
I dunno!
Dextix LT1 votesBecause a support main has to support the adc constantly in this meta to be most effective. Thus a support main knows a lot about the role he is hitched with.
GigglesO1 votesAnd another upvote thread... wooo
Dextix LT1 votesThese posts exist because Riot does not pay attention to proper discussions (Which have been happening already).
If Riot does not listen, the the boards have to get louder and louder, no matter if something is true or not.
