@riot adc's need new items.
With lethality replacing armor pen and all of the flat armor pen items changed to fit assassins with the exception of
, there is nothing left for adc's.
was good for some champs that could benefit from the stats but cannot with the new update.
The Flat armor pen movement speed and attack speed stats helped kite,damage, or escape.
Maw of Malmortius (
) helped with adding magic resist and added flat pen as well but that is being changed to cooldown.
this was also good, you could benefit from the execution it delivered with long range champs such as
. I understand the need for an assassin update even items but not only do adc's have to worry about completely invisible assassins
, champions made to target you
, or crazy mobility and damage.
You now have to worry about meta tanks with high CC champs locking you down and not being able to damage them because you have no flat pen, escape, or extra defense for items to turn to. The update on top of the item take away is going to limit the champions you want to play. I'd have to stick with
to stay alive and even that is going to be hard with the assassin update. I'm not asking for reworks just new items that help give lethality stats and movement speed actives or passives. Dodging assassins mids, jg's, lockdown meta tanks does not give an adc who only has
for an escape a fighting chance and does not make the game much fun either. The build paths are going to be boring and if you do not get fed you are not going to a very fun game as adc in general.
