ADCs overall feel irrelevant...

One ADC + support usually has more wave clear and pushes the lane in or farms it safely. Supports can be so powerful that an ADC has to concede lane pressure and farm under tower. Assassins and fighters have gained so much burst damage that ADCs can't enter fights without a huge risk. You're either unable to enter fights because of extremely fed enemy assassins, or just clean-up for your team's already winning fight.

I'm not having much fun at the moment. The team with more assassins/ better assassins (Leblanc > Diana) seems to always win. Even if you're able to stall the game, as soon as your mid or top die the enemy just takes your base and wins.

I don't think ADCs are in that bad of a spot especially with all the whining about Kaisa that goes around. If she was THAT absurdly broken to make an irrelevant role seem good, pretty sure her win rate would be higher, and her early game wouldn't be nearly as weak as it is.

I feel this in my bones... it feels like, as always, the only lanes that matter are the solo ones. It doesn't matter if I win lane. It only matters if top/jungle/mid won lane.

game has been literally almost entirely about bot lane since they introduced turret first blood.

least popular and impactful lane was top lane for the longest time. its still currently difficult to gauge, since its currently just certain top laners that are capable of carrying games, like jax or irelia. if you take those out of the equation, top lane has as little game impact as ever.

play darius for example, and it looks entirely different and youre not going to solo carry games against a fed bot lane.

as far as bot lane goes, a couple of the marksmen are still way too strong.

no shit. youre scaling lategame champions.

youre effectively ranged ad versions of nasus or veigar. youre supposed to be trash early game, to justify your huge lategame. cant have both. that would be idiotic.
