dont know too much about the game and all the math and stuff, but im wondering whats better in situations. armor pen vs crit, from what i have read, armor pen is good against a team of squishes and if u rely on your abilties alot, and that crit is good if u auto alot and against a team of alot of tanks. Im not too sure tho any help with it?

That sounds about right. Also, Armor Pend is a mid game build. you fall off late vs a crit build ADC especially against the bruisers and tanks.

Armor pen = early mid power spikes while still surprisingly effective later on with certain adcs (lucian and mf for example).

Crit = dominate everything late game on any champion

There's generally 2 types of ADCs: casters and auto attackers.

Casters want armor pen ASAP. Auto attackers generally get either an IE or an ER first and will get armor penetration later.
