ADC's are not squishy at all

With the shields, MR, lifesteal and HP all without any tradeoff because they all give usefull AD/AS stats. Remember all the prior seasons where an ADC's had to make a tradeoff for building a defensive item like Banshee or GA. Now they don't have to make any tradeoff at all because the best AD items are also the defensive ones and have become core on all adc's. Heck, ADC's are more tankier than bruisers used to be.

And PD's 12% damage reduction is simply ridiculous. Bond of stone gave 8% and they said it was too strong and got nerfed to 4%. Now ADC's get 12% and combined with lifesteal items it becomes impossible to kill them.

Right. ADCs don't build IE or LW anyways.

Can still 1v1 ADCs as a support early and sometimes mid

The thing is, if an ADC builds all of those items they aren't hitting NEARLY as hard as they could be. Aside from some outliers (Graves) most ADCs can't get away with building like that.

I never said they build them all. They usually build 1-2 of them. I am saying that building 'defensive' items have no tradeoff because they also give huge offensive stats

oh yeah not at all. merc gives you 75 ad. maw gives u armor pen and lifesteal spellvamp. and 55 ad. and steraks. well it doubles the bonus ad when it pops and good lucking killing an adc with both mawsand steraks popped in an even fight.

Ezreal has the lowest lvl 18 health of all (Primary) Marksmen at 1844 hp.

Shen has the lowest lvl 18 health of all (Primary) Tanks at 1781 hp.

There are about 25 champions that are below Ezreal in terms of lvl 18 health, including Shen.

What champion are you playing that you can't kill an ADC?

I play mostly ADC and Support, and I can tell you that most enemies are a threat to an ADC. Yeah, me building a Maw may save me from a Lux combo, but I'll have like 200 health at the end. If your engagers aren't diving the ADC, then it's more the teams fault than the ADC being too healthy through items.

Gotta love when you look at the enemy team comp and your first thought is, "Guess I'm playing safe cause they all will be able to 1-shot me."
