Adc are the new role to blame

Apparently, when everything goes wrong, blame your adc, it doesn't matter that supports determine how bot lane plays, doesn't matter how much you focus to farm perfectly, doesn't matter that you stay alive for long periods of time doing damage on a teamfight, if top/mid lane dies early, adc in 2k17 right?

Who cares if they've got a diver or an assassin, the adc deserves to die because well, during 7 long years they've been the only required role to play, can't beat that logic! if we all focus both adcs then it's a 4v4 but if we lose either way ADC FUCKING 2017 RIGHT?!?!?!

"ADC in 2k17" is a meme, it's not a fact.

What's fact? They are still mandatory in every single game because Riot literally balances the game around them, where besides a couple few, almost every champion and most things in the game are balanced according to how well they do with and/or against them.

Not to mention, the most blamed class is still the jungler and supp. People only ever blame adc if they go 1/7, or that they're being a dickbag demanding every benefit being handed to them on a silver platter just because they are the "carry". But if you're the jungler or supp, hohoho, if you ain't everywhere like post-6 TF on steroids, prepare to eat shit in most games. Adc have it much easier in comparison.

I agree in that it's not a fact, adcs have ups and downs but lately people seem to point the finger at you for whatever reason, even if things that happen in other lanes end up affecting you, say the jungler comes in being 2/0/1, dives you and your support under turret, kills you both but nope, it's the adc's fault that a fed jungler can tank a turret, adc 2017 hurrdurr

I don't know if it's a regional thing. But here in OCE, if bot gets dived by fed jungler+friends and adc and supp both die, it's usually the adc who blames supp for not stalling the divers and die by themselves to ensure the adc escapes, or that supp would get blamed for not warding better. Or something along those lines.

But idk, still from what I've seen as mentioned above, jg and supp usually get blamed by far the most as far as I'm aware. And in comparison, adc have it relatively cool.

it's possible that NA is filled with increasingly trolly players I guess but in a lot of my games I've seen this trend in both teams, towards me and towards the enemy adc (from his team) as well, I was just in a game where I had a teemo support who would simply stand in the bush and do nothing during the whole laning phase while I got poked to oblivion trying to farm even under turret :S and even though I managed to do so, the team ended up blaming me for the loss... and yes I got dove by warwick a couple times but as Jinx you can imagine what I can do against his ult and with a Teemo support....
