What's more obnoxious than getting one shot by an assassin?

Gnart Even Close··5 votes·1,332 views

Playing against an ADC that can magically disengage without a support (you know, like Vayne and Tristana). Apparently ADCs aren't supposed to require good positioning and support from their team to succeed. All they need to do to get away from anyone is simply press a button. Tristana Rocket Jump away, now have fun killing her because you're not gonna succeed. Vayne has self peel for some stupid reason, which isn't even the most obnoxious part of her kit. Is it really too difficult to have roles that require certain skills? ADCs should require good positioning, teamwork, and kiting. Assassins should be the ones with mobility. Supports and tanks should have peel. Bruisers should be well rounded for everything. Mages should bring AOE magic damage and CC.

I know this is just pointless complaining because this will never change. Bring in the downvotes.

Boards can literally complain about anything holy crap and of course you are silver.

This is one of the largest reasons why nobody listens to low Elo. You mistake your inability to correctly play the game for certain items/champs/runes/masteries/matchmaking algorithms being too op and want a fix/buff/nerf to any of the listed things. Just get better and really learn how to play the game and you'll stop complaining so much.

blame game imbalance and player frustration on my rank? ever consider that the champs have poorly designed parts of their kits, and riot should be working to reduce player frustration, which btw causes most raging in the game.

yes, i am silver and yes i am not great at the game. that does not mean i don't know what i'm talking about. these champions may be "balanced", but that is not the only measure that makes a champion a good champion. and even then, i'm not convinced that they're balanced at all.

not exactly the same, but they should mostly fit into certain categories. for example, the adc archetype should be mostly immobile or only have a long cooldown escape (i.e. Ezreal). vayne, tristana, lucian, kindred, etc don't follow this at all and are incredibly frustrating. vayne is the most frustrating because she also has her condemn to self peel. adcs are supposed to be dps, the supports and tanks are supposed to be the peel. if there's a mix between two roles, that's one thing. it's entirely another to shatter what the role should mean.

Adcs require a lot of teamwork atm... Trist might be able to get out with her W, but can she do any damage to that Malphite sitting there without peel?

rocket jump away and then probably she'll be fine. i'm pretty sure it outranges maplhite's ult. and she has her own ult to push him away. as to whether she can fight him, that's probably not likely. and that's a good thing. even though malphite is pretty annoying too, he's not as bad as other champions like vayne and tristana.

I was expecting another complaint thread about a squishy champion getting one-shot by a tank.

I was disappointed.

Bruisers should be well rounded for everything while the super-squish adcs should lose their ability to keep themselves alive? Are you okay man? Try being an ADC main and then let's see what you think. An ADC will be the target of most enemy cc and abilities, people will dive like nuts to get to an ADC. ADCs absolutely need those survival tools.

Lucian is literally the fucking stupidest champion in the game right now.

A dash, double crits after every ability and ridiculous damage on everything he does aside from W. (which gives him mobility anyways)

Not denying that you get blown up by any assassin ever just saying that he technically does have self peel. Technicalities are important XD

Ekko Being 3 shot by a tank.

that's pretty obnoxious too. especially when that tank has ridiculous mobility. i'm noticing a trend here. it's almost like mobility is a type of cancer... (yet i play ridiculously mobile champions like gnar that are hella obnoxious to play against)
