Love playing adc, but find it too frustrating to main
I am not an adc main, but I do enjoy playing adc time to time. I know adcs are generally considered toxic players, but I am starting to get it. Its just too damn annoying playing games in that role.
I feel its almost a requirement to at least duo with a support you know. Maybe its different at higher elos, but I just can't do it in silver. It's not even laning phase that bothers me as much as mid to late game.
I love playing
and know he is currently my best adc. However, if I want to win consistently more than 50% of my games I have to play
. I can cs and fight in lane better as Lucian, but none of that seems to matter after 25 mins. Unless my team is way ahead, it seems generally very hard to win a game. Once team fights start, I am pretty much guaranteed death. Now I know my positioning and adc skills are not pro level and I am not qquing about that. But I am not that adc that face checks bushes with the enemy team in them nor do I try and engage a fight as if I am a tank. But most games that does not seem to matter. Generally a majority of the enemy team is hell bent on killing me while my team completely forgets about me and is hell bent on fighting the enemy team. Meanwhile the enemy adc (who 3/4 of games I am pretty far ahead of) just sits back auto attacking at their back line getting 3-4 kills a team fight while my team leaves me alone to defend for myself.
Now my last two games as lucian I have been trying to go back to the crit build. But I usually do the "korean style" with first three items being
. I almost feel
is required so I at least have some peel for myself.
I don't even think about playing
too much although she is popular because I have no faith joining a game my team will even think about peeling for me. I know some games they will and we will win easy, but I just feel like its a huge roll of the dice. So for me, I feel immobile adcs are out of the question. I used to really enjoy playing
but stopped playing her this season. I know its ironic as it was the adcs patch at the start of the season and the general thought is she was buffed. Its just my personal opinion but I feel she is too reliant on her ult now. Like yea it does crazy damage and is great if you can use it on multiple members of the enemy team. But before that she used to be great at dueling and if you were ahead you could kill enemy adcs and players quickly without having to use your ult.
Anyways qq thread, curious how others feel when playing adc. Not an excuse to be toxic jerks btw haha but saying I do find the role frustrating. I was a support main earlier this season so I am not bad mouthing supports either.
