is it that tanks are too strong or ADCs are too weak?

Lol @ ever saying ADCs are too weak. The entire meta is built AROUND them every season. But at the same time, tanks are not too strong. They're just viable and people forgot what a real tank was.

not at all. you can get away with not picking a ADC and have a strong APC like cass, syndra, or annie carry.

Or neither. Can't believe you completely missed an option when there were only four possibilities.

Both, as a result of nerfing ADCs and buffing tanks.

Depends on the phase of the game. Late-game, at full build, adc's should dominate as long as their tanks are protecting them. Whenever I play adc, I go with the mindset that everyone can 100-0 me and that I can only kill them if I can survive first.

I'd say neither. People just need to learn to kite and peel really well for their adcs in order to make them useful. So yes, they're kinda useless a whole lot of the time in low elo now, but in high elo they are still often what carries a lot of the fights.

Don't forget the vayne bann rates ( well I meant noting near the pigs Sejuani of course)

Adcs have historically been weak early and midgame, (they have to be tho) and therefore easily get snowballed on by tanks, also currently almost every tank can solo kill an adc thanks to cinderhulk.

Probably because majority of people don't know how to position. There's not a single class that can't 1v1 a bad adc.

Im quite confident in m positioning, but with 2/3 tanks with thornmail gromp buff and cc it just doesnt matter much.

The thing is, Tanks are designed to dive 5 enemies for the purpose of locking down and disabling the ADC. ADCs have item options that allow for neutralizing Tanks's defenses to practically nothing.

A properly built Tank and a properly built ADC SHOULD cancel each other out.

that never happens unless ur playing vayne. if a tank goes on top of a adc and the ADC has zero peel from his team then that ADC will die 99% of the time just from burn damage...

also, in order for a adc to do ANY KIND of damage to a tank they need to build item 3035 and item 3153 100% of the time, which is boring diversity. riot praticially sings songs of worship about "diversity" in there game when ADCs have been building the same eact shit since season 1.

StrawberrycocoaApr 27, 20151 votes

ADCs have the worst of item diversity, that's pretty much true.

But nonetheless, item 3153 item 3031 item 3035 item 3046 will give you enough armor shred health shred and raw crit-fueled damage to shred Tanks, Vayne or no Vayne
