Are adc's dead?

DualBlind··2 votes·1,394 views

Being an ex adc main, I feel that with the tank meta coming, adcs are slowly are dieing....not saying that we should nerf the tanks, but we should buff adc's....as in....buff item 3153 because with the low cost of (item 3709 item 3717 item 3721 item 3725 ) and item 3075 adc's become useless and the literally kill themselves and die in the processes from the damage output.....so my advice...buff bork..and keep the jungler's buff

ok....so what people don't understand is that you can try to push, and a tank jumps on your butt....what can that adc do? The adc's can't do damage to the tank cause then they will die....adcs can't run away, cause tanks in the meta have too much cc....so wtf

so....what are you trying to tell me is that let's just throw out like half of the adc champs and leave KogMaw Vayne be the only carries in the game?

that is a retarded comment tbh. Kogmaw is so susceptible to being focused unless you go for a comp like "Juggermaw"(and tbh I don't even think you are good enough at the game to even know what that is) you will easily flop by tank junglers such as Grag or sej

Must you be so insulting with no provocation?

Plus, after 5 seconds of gooogle: Juggermaw is a comp where you take a hyper carry and ally them with 4 supports that utilize shields heals and defensive CC to keep that hypercarry alive at all costs so they can melt the enemy team.

A couple seasons ago it was called "Defend the Kog". It's not some new rare special thing, but good job being a presumptuous jerk.

ADC's will never be irrelevant simply because they are the best at busting towers. Sivir is also relevant because of that massive team speed-boost. You can't go wrong with Lucian or Jinx either.

I had someone try to tell me Sona takes towers as fast as ADCs.....in dead seriousness too.

Well, Koggy is the best right now, imho, but with the rise of tank sustained damage ADCs are stronger than burst ones. So Ashe Caitlyn Jinx Kalista KogMaw Sivir Vayne seem all more or less viable to me.

ADC builds naturally shred tanks late-game. A tank tries to delay your late-game, so it might come off like that, but once you're full build it takes a matter of seconds to shred them (remember last season when people hated tanks who got melted like squishies?). To counter thornmail, remember to have a decent amount of lifesteal and/or magic resist. During teamfights, stay behind your backline. Even if you counter tanks and whatnot, almost anyone can burst down a squishy, but you will out-damage them in only matter of seconds so surviving is crucial to dealing damage in a teamfight.

I hope that helps :/

In my opinion, as long as you have:

  1. Good adc skills (orb walking, positioning, kiting, farming)
  2. A team with at least a tank and a decent peeler
  3. Allies with basic knowledge of the game

You can play Koggy as if he was a normal adc.
