I feel like adcs shouldnt determine the game outcome

Time and time again teams do very well but an adc impacts the game more than any other role imo, hence the name ad carry. There isnt another class that can carry that hard in any situation and it doesnt seem balanced to base a game around a pool of champions

For the games that get to late-game, the ADC probably has on average the most input in late-game fights. But a lot of games don't get past 25 minutes with scores close enough that whatever the ADC does matters at all--often due to the Mid or Jungle of one team snowballing hard. And how well ADCs do late has a lot to do with how well the supports set them up for success. I've had 0/6 adc games followed by 12/2 games where I played about the same, but had very different quality supports. Sure, it looks like I carried if I'm 12/2, but often it's just a Pro Thresh or Nami who can't seem to miss skillshots. And certainly during laning, I'm much more concerned by an enemy support than I am the enemy adc.

"Carry" does imply that one member started snowballing, but the reasons they did don't always have a lot to do with their own play.

Meanwhile my jungler is 0/3, enemy jungler is like 5/1 and there is no way we ever win lul

Every game so far in diamond as a support:

enemy bot lane fed alone, you auto-win the game Jungler camped bot, the jungler who managed to get first tower won the game

you can camp top or mid, it won't change anything UNLESS the bot lane goes even

Any good fed midlaner can deal with this. Adc being fed doesn't lead to a free win, it's a combination of things.

people are whining that junglers define games now and that ADC's are in a shitpit

and that's why jungle xp is getting gutted and not creep xp
