Why is one shotting considered healthy?

Exactly what the title says.

I'm not just referring to the fact that ADC's get deleted, I mean in general why it's even a thing...

^ SO agree to this. Get this: me: Volibear ->item 3110 item 3143 item 1409-> 250+ armor 2000+ hp Fed Zed-> item 3071 item 3033 item 3147 item 3142

I was fighting off an enemy wave when he had flashed, ulted, w-q-e and killed me before his ult damage even got off.

What's the point of even trying to tank? he only took one turret shot.

the zed is full lethality lol what do you expect xDD plus you built frozen heart which is for attack speed auto attack reliant champions you just built wrong, and the zed has 4 items I wouldnt walk up to that, you basically had only two items

again didn't just 'walk up to that' he flash killed my under turret from FoW. You can make fun of the choice, there were attack speed champs on that team as well, I ALSO like to point out it still has one of the HIGHEST raw armor stats in game, probably to make up for the fact it doesn't have hp. I get it, he's ahead, i'm unlucky, and you can say I suck all you want. I died in a blink with actually high tank stats. Had no chance, couldn't even defend inhib turret. Sometimes a champ get's fed. I guess I lose because I wasn't midlane? Whatever you say, I didn't expect to die before his ult even hit me, That's what i call bs.

Yeah, but that's 4K gold more than you in items, and I bet he also was a couple of levels ahead of you, on top of it. No one should be able to survive someone so far ahead, not even a Tank.

I'm surprised Zed hasn't been nerfed in any way thus far.

You have a point, We as a team avoided team fighting for that reason, I just wish that as a tank, he'd need more than 2 seconds to kill me under turret and wouldn't walk away with 1 turret shot, That's just not fair in my opinion.

Why do you think it's OK to not buy any defensive items and simultaneously complain about getting killed quickly?

I play burst mages if i cant 1 shot an adc i'm worthless. 1 shotting is difficult to do unless fed in this protect the adc meta.

It's almost the only way to kill anyone with high sustain.

It's also just going to happen when people build glass cannon.

If you can't one shot adc will burst you.

As long as adc exist, one shotting has to exist.

FrockSaints3 votes

No. As long as there's so much damage in the game, burst will have to be tuned to only be a bit more bursty than the sustained burst adcs provide. Nerf damage across the board and you can have burst mages actually feel bursty when compared to adcs, without having 1shots everywhere.

One shotting wont happen if the enemy is not fed, if you have the enemy who is 10/0 by 20 minutes, you deserved to be one shotted buddy

Annie one shots squishies at lvl 6

jelite501 votes

not true lol unless you've give her like 3 kills be4 then and even then you survive with a good chunk of health

DeathBurst1 votes

Nope. She puts them at 15% life.

One shotting is really a neccesary component if one shotting wasn't a thing ADC's would be even more broken. The whole perspective of "one shotting" make's people have to play smarter, make's positioning necessary, if there was no one shotting everybody would be running around not scared of consequences cuz they can get away from anything. so yeah I agree one shotting is healthy
