Retaliation Strategy

Hey at least Im offering a real solution to the problem. This shit is ruining league. I ask every lobby if they are having fun playing and Im lucky if I get 1 yes out of 4 people.

Thats a problem. I was a halo player and that game started nt being fun too. You know what happened to that game? It died within 3 years.

70% of the time you get someone sitting behind you who doesn't know how to trade and get's poked down for being out of position (which forces you to have to stop trading and miss farm). Ever notice too, these are the Jannas that shield you after you take damage in a trade, or the soraka who you know hasn't healed you all lane (and always claims it was on cd). They are also the braum who q's then runs away, the Bard who hasn't been to lane in the last 5 minutes because he's looking for meepos that heal you for 10hp, or the tank who has been sitting in the bush behind you the entire game 'presumably taking a shit and not actually sitting at computer'.

20% of the time you get the support who is good at their off meta champ (usually the mages), who is aggressively going for kills, and thinks ur trash bc you don't do as much damage as them, so they secure all the kills, start taking your cs, and telling the team ur trash (keep in mind they wont protect u all game then bc "ur trash, so when you finally do hit your powerspike you are made useless by them, and your team loses every team-fight and skirmish").

9% of the time you get the guy who is terrible at their champion but continuously goes all in and feeds (then you get flamed for not following up, and the notorious "report bot feeding at end" even though you left lane with more cs than enemy adc and no deaths).

1% of the time you get someone who is actually playing the role correctly, and helps to snowball you, so you go 10/0 and end the game by yourself in 15 minutes, and think (why the hell can't they all be half as good as this support)?

I'm sorry but 1% is not reasonable riot. 1% is an anomaly, and not a reason to leave adc in such a state where they cannot get themselves going in the early game when they are actually better than the enemy adc, or have to run away from every fight when they did manage to win lane hard, just because your teammates are bad and cannot engage/peel/ focus correctly...

Everyone bitches because we deal a ton of damage. Listen I will agree with that... ADC deal way too much damage. And when your team protects you (aka carries you). You are damn oppressive, and will mess the enemy team up, but it's your team that's protecting you doing the heavy lifting and still not a reason to punish ADC's.

When we ask for buffs and complain, it's not about how much damage we are capable of dealing, it's about how little influence we have on the game when our teammates are bad.

I have watched countless videos of CHALLENGER ADC Mains visiting low elo, and not being able to win games because their teammates aren't doing anything they are supposed to. Yet if a Challenger visits low elo on any other role they can hard carry the game (1v5) etc.

If you search "How to Carry low elo" on youtube you will almost never see results for adc and that is a really clear indication that there is something unbalanced in the role.

Noone likes when the game revolves around bot lane, but that had more to do with the dragon spawning bot. The real solution to this is to just make dragons not spawn in as fast. Not punish adc bc dragon buffs are OP
