100% True and I've been spamming Irelia in ranked queues myself.
I average a KD of 8.3 / 5.1 / 7.6 and I have just a 41% winrate because although I stomp the fuck out of my lane opponent, if the enemy ADC has just a couple of kills over ours I can't do shit.
Even as a champ like Irelia I feel if I jump on the enemy ADC and kill her, because I'm the fed one on my team, my team just gets shredded behind me by Udyr's, Xin Zhao's whatever.
Mid game I can deal with ADCs pretty effectively, hell, it's what I do and I've been doing it for 4 seasons. I only play Camille Irelia and Jax top. But there comes a point in the game, once the ADC has a few items and their support has a few items I simply cant do shit cuz the enemy ADC gets peeled hard AF and gets rediculous shields from their support. Not to mention late game they just do INSANE damage compared to a full build bruiser, who by the way does not get the same level of protection as an ADC.
Having been a top lane bruiser main (with the exception of Trundle and some others in certain METAs) for 4 seasons I can confidently say it has never been so challenging to kill the other team's god damn ADC and it's so unhealthy for the game to revolve around them. Its fucking bullshit and how this hasn't been fixed is beyond me.
Playing top lane, and particularly bruisers was an effective way of carrying because it allowed you to take care of the enemy's squishies thus getting rid of most of their damage output. NOTICE I HAVENT EVEN MENTIONED THE AP CARRY IN THE MID LANE BECAUSE WHO GIVES A FUCK ABOUT THEM ANYMORE LOL
Now it seems like they're not even meant to do that anymore! I only continue to play these champs because these are the champs that I think are cool which is how the game SHOULD BE PLAYED. You should NOT be put at a disadvantage for wanting to play a particular set of champs. I get that there a METAs, which are actually healthy for the game, but to make ONE class so superior to the rest is so unhealthy.
As for the tards who might come and say "u got a low winrate cuz ur not doing the right things to help your team", at the end of the day, if you have a good average KDA over many games, it means you're not feeding, and you're generating gold for your team. Gold ---> Items ---> Damage ---> Turrets ---> Nexus. If I was a sellout and could be fucked to learn and just go play ADC I garauntee you my winrate would increase by atleast 10% because 90% of my losses JUST BY COINCIDENCE are games where my bot lane lost.
So sick of this ADC meta bs and riot really dont give a fuck about the gamers who actually trying to reach their full potential while playing the champions they want. By playing the same champs I almost reach PLAT twice (Gold II in S5, Gold I in S6). Now? I'm stuck in Gold V with a 48% win rate. Say what you like about me, but if there's one thing that's true about ALL players it's that people don't get WORSE the MORE they play this game!
.
Good luck diving a teamfight with no way to escape.
or some such champ and gets through the peel to delete the adc and win teamfight win game. HOWEVER that "adc assassinator" has to be a ton more fed than the adc/adc's team for this to work (and the ADC can't be 
)
