Bot Lane Needs A Fix

Firing At Will··4 votes·901 views

Where do I even get this started. Bot lane is such a big mess that it's hard not to get people but hurt in at least several ways. Let's start this by saying that if you don't care about ADCs at all then get out of here because I am defending ADCs right now so if you don't want to hear my complaining then leave. I gave you a warning so now i'm going to go on my rant so if you are going to complain about what I said and don't like what I said, I warned you so there you go. Alright to be honest I don't care too much about other types of champions like mages like i don't really like it but it's not that bad. What's bad is ADCs (or at least most of them) being next to useless and not viable and even Riot knew this and said so. What they did to "fix" it was next to useless in my opinion because all they did was change items a bit and buff some ADCs but this doesn't really fix the issue so let me explain. Instead of buffing them maybe you can move them into another lane and this is just an idea but if you let ADCs be viable in another lane maybe it can help fix the issue. It's just an idea and probably won't work but if they are viable in another lane and become viable again in bot lane as well then it will add that diversity that Riot is looking for so much and make ADCs playable again but it's an idea and has many flaws most likely so just give it some thought. Riot needs to stop reworking champions and just fix bot lane and the game right now. Instead of fixing/changing a champion one at a time maybe try fixing the main issue and not a champion one at a time. The game is unfortunately dying and ADCs mains are leaving because they can't play what they like. I recently saw a video about what pros think about the Meta and oh boy I did not like what they said but that's for another time. As of right now ADCs are dead, bot lane is a mess, and because of this the game is dying. We will see what Riot games will do. If they break it more then we can abandon the game which I hate to say because I like the game or they will fix it and we can enjoy playing ADC again and having not being forced to play what we don't like to play. This is my opinion so if you don't like that then that is perfectly fine and if you want to complain about what I said then that is completely fair and go ahead and do it. Let me know what you think and may ADCs shine again.

I do indeed believe ADC is a bad position to play, I've mained it since I started playing the game back in 2015. No matter what arguments we make, people will always say ADC is a broken role because of their damage, which is understandable, but that's literally their purpose. The one problem I have, is ADCS fall off so hard unless they're perfect its ridiculous. I'll go from 3 shotting people when fed, to missing 15/20CS/experience while out of lane and end up being the one getting 2 shotted. I just believe ADCS should have more of a Independent carry buff, like they did with the general game a few patches ago by making early gold lower and later gold higher, but adcs should be a tiny bit weaker earlier on, and scale into a massive slayer because, that's their job lol.. If they do their job right, they should be able to fulfill their role and carry their game. That's what the ADC is.[slayer-pantheon-thumbs] [draven-pose]

Exactly. ADCs are supposed to be able to do damage and carry the game but they can't really do that when they are nerfed into the ground becoming useless. ADCs have always been the make it or break it role and that is their point really. They are supposed to carry your game and be important to the team but when they are just bad all together it removes a huge part of the game and removes the point of supports as well or at least the ones that are supposed to help the ADC stay alive and thats shown by the meta supports being ones that are focused on doing damage like Brand. ADCs are a big part of the game and when you make them useless what that does is remove a hug part of the game which makes the game less fun for alot of people. They just need to bring ADCs back
