@Meddler ADC are mandatory but Garbage right now
i understood it today
cait/ezreal are the only good adc and by far overpowered (blue ez=58% win rate in korea)
every single other adc are pure garbage, and the level of garbage depends on who we're talking about, even
isn't good imo, he feels strong but jhin needs 400 or 500 AD to do something and before this he can only help his team with utility+some delayed damage
Basically all adc needs a lot of items to work especially
right now EXCEPT caitlyn and ezreal (who can be relevant just with a sheen)
But ADC are still needed, no one can lane bot against them (with the exception of ziggs and mages but ziggs can take first tower quickly unlike the other) and that's why they are needed they aren't needed because of sieging, stop thinking this because every single mages can siege, why?
mages can still deal decent damage to towers, and their level of zoning is way higher than adc
imagine
, what is he going to do if say enemy thresh is comming to hook him? nothing he backs
now imagine
sieging, thresh is going to take 50% of his hp from 1000 range if he dares to approach
mages are actually very decent at sieging, the reason adc are needed bot is that no hypercarry can lane against them (I'M TALKING ABOUT 2V2 BOT LANE NOT 1V1 TOP LANE) , and in this game you need a hypercarry depending on gold that can lane bot
-melees can't lane bot
-
can somewhat lane bot but limited, just like
because adc have ressourceless amount of damage bot, ryze and azir are limited by their mana/cooldown
Solution to fixe adc being mandatory AND garbage: -increase the duration of the game right now in diamond/master the data of a site says that the average duration of league games are 27 minutes this is unacceptable for adc (or hypercarries in general) 27 min is the begining of mid game, this is the reason adc and picks like jax or nasus feels underwhelming you need to reduce snowballing by: -removing masteries (or fixe them, i propose removing them since it's easier) -removing/nerfing first blood tower that has 71% win rate at the moment _ less snowballing=easier for adc to be able to farm and get items like in season 2 or season 5_ now since 2010 riot is known for not wanting to fixe adc being mandatory but i'll still propose you an extremely easy way to fixe adc laning phase the solution is minions (winions lul)
minions since the begining of this game have an extremely weird aggro, when you're melee you take the aggro everytime easily, but when a ranged champ hit you minions don't do shit at all for multiple reasons: -they're extremely slow the ranged champ will have the time to back already -they only start to aggro if you receive damage from basic attack
solution:-aggro starts when a champion right clicks you instead of when the attack lands -minions movement speed are increased if the attacker is a ranged champion
this will make range vs melee easier everywhere just with this minion changes: -top lane -assassins vs mages mid -tank supports vs enchenters -adc vs melees bot lane
an other thing is mage hypercarries, what if
had her ability to give mana back? not on herself but on allies for multiple reasons:
-this would make mages going bot more often if they have a soraka with them
-this woud make soraka more unique because enchenters are all the same right now, all the same friend, and no one would replace soraka if she had the ability to give mana
Thank you for reading if you read
PS: fixe caitlyn being good at all stage of the game
