Duhhh, ADCs are fair!

Yeah. FOUR VERSUS FUCKING FIVE, yet the braindead clicker can still win the game for the enemy team. Yep. That's fair! Doesn't matter that I'm FULL AP EKKO and land my ult and whole combo on her, she lives (that's uh, more than 3,000 damage), lifesteals more than fucking full build Vlad, and carries the game. Doesn't matter that our whole team dives her -- she lives anyway, one shots everyone, and carries the game.

Zero skill, zero thought, zero aiming, nothing. Just right click, and win! But, you know, that's "fair and balanced." Least effort, greatest reward!

Why are greedy companies like Riot allowed to exist? Why the fuck did brats enable shitty F2P cash grabs? I don't get it.

This post is too stupid and angry for me to even comprehend.

I can safely say that every ADC in the game takes drastically more skill than playing ekko. Yes, they are meant to do that if you massively feed them. Dont feed them. It sounds like you missed most of your abilities and/or ulted a banshee's veil. You screwed up, dont rage about it on the forums.

So, remind me: What skill is involved in right clicking? Ekko is entirely skillshots, and if you build him AP (as he's supposed to be), he's just as squishy as any ADC -- even more so since he doesn't have the ever so balanced lifesteal.

But, this isn't just her getting fed. She was 0/0/2 bot lane, I roam down there since my mid laner wasn't in the game, and she kills all of us.

And, no, go look at her build. She had no Banshee's. I ulted her several times, brought her to <100 health, but she lifesteals for more than I can burst her, and I end up dying. There was no screwup, it's just ADCs being absurdly broken.

You apparently play ADCs, so you must know how complex and intensive anim canceling, stutterstep, kiting, proper positioning and trading in lane are.. But from my experiences playing support, most silver ADCs have no idea what any of that means, and just rightclick and AFK.

I am fairly sure that ekko cannot do 3000 damage from his abilities at any point in a game, especially in the laning phase.

I think you are just mad. Go stuff a popsicle in your face and calm down, kid.

:( silver player here. I don't usually play ADC but I do know how to cancel and kite, but I legitimately have no clue what stutterstepping or orbwalking are -_-

My positioning usually goes as follows: A.) I'm a kajillion lightyears behind my team. I somehow murder everyone as they step too close to me or B.) I'm too close and get deleted lol

Stutterstepping basically means canceling an attack the second the projectile appears, so you can start moving again as soon as possible. Orbwalking is stutterstepping.

It is very microintensive and takes a lot of practice to do, especially since the exact timing changes as you get attack speed.

Ekko is a braindead champ if there ever was one. Your skillshot is fat as hell and it slows, you have an aoe stun, you're tanky as fuck, and you do insane damage. All you got to do is land all your crowd control and whack. Obviously ADC's are strong but that's the point. Not all champions are created equal, and the success of an ADC heavily depends on their ability to outplay mechanically and the ability of the team to open up opportunities for the ADC.

ADCs require far more button presses than any other role. Postion requires far more skill than right clicking once on your target and pressing your skills like melee champs.

Hi dear Pleb, Top Singed and Supp Thresh main here

ADC may be my most disliked role out of the game but I have tried playing it on my main account (got that permanban)

But when I played it theirs things you need to do to be a good or an average ADC

-Kiting -Positioning -Do actual dmg -You're like the main focus -Squishy

Well, here's the thing: ADC is my least played role by far -- also my least favorite. Yet, if I go bot lane, I still win lane, even if I play some bullshit like Gnar ADC + J4 supp. There is no difficulty in right clicking on people from a long distance, and you're relatively safe once you get lifesteal.

With your whole team there to keep them off you, you just stand back and go watch a movie as you AA spam the teamfight. And, just about every ADC has some form of CC / peel / mobility to make kiting trivial.

So... What do you really need to do to be a good ADC? Stay awake through laning so you can go click on people and delete them?
