ADC is a role, and is part of the game

Must explain why Riot put "Bot lane" and not "ADC" in role selection, maybe they want the game to have more damage dealer in botlane?

they tried to make Mordekaiser APC a thing, they seem open to less traditional carries in the bot lane but apparently not as open to less traditional supports in the bot lane. like suspending a Singed support for playing Singed support.

Don't hijack this thread by turning it into a support singed thread

if they wanted morde botlane to work, a long time ago they would have removed his W passive, and reverted the thousand of W nerfs he received.

Melees cant work bot without being broken as hell with op gimmicks like Morde W or his dragon pet tho.

When morde was released, his problem was the xp passive, the dragon pet problem was that it was too fast those 2 problems got fixed (xp passive is legit hidden power now) but it's too late, they already destroyed his W and he can't go bot anymore.

Melee champs shouldnt go bot imo, the role is adc and if you want a melee bot laner to be "good", he has to be way too oppressive/broken. Id rather see melee mid laners worth picking again xd

There is marksman role. ADC means nothing to them.

Because in some odd occasions the role is not filled by an Attack Damage Carry, but simply a champion in bot lane.

Honestly this is my opinion as well. I would love to see a mage designed for bot, or a marksmen for mid. Jg has a bit of wiggle room in damage type, and top has the most. Support doesnt really matter if they do ad or ap. Personally, i would love to see some shifts in game that makes it possible for some marksmen to run mid or top. Variety is the spice of life

Because they don't want to recognize they failed at balancing and let a class of champions be by far the strongest in one role and completely monopolize it for several years.
