ADCs that don't rely heavily on supports?

This is not a support hate thread. I'm just curious on which ADCs can get away without having a support nearby 100% of the time. Let me give you an example of the opposite in my opinion.

and need their supports by usually at all times because if the enemy team has a hook or stun support, the ADC will need protection.

Only one I can really think of where it's the other way around is because his q is low cooldown, so when you first by , you're just sitting back farming with q and using e to avoid enemy poke.

Anyway what do you guys think?

Technically any champion could live without a support, waveclearing under tower and poking occasionally. But thats not what you meant. In answer to your question:

Caitlyn Ezreal Kaisa Lucian Sivir

Can all do extremely well solo.

Riskier ones would be.

Xayah Vayne Varus

Who can all solo if they have the right conditions but it would always be risky.

Any adc that is usually considered safe would be your best bet. You're looking for long range in the laning phase and good escapes.

I disagree that Ezreal works well solo. He cant clear wave fast enough and enemies will easily push you under turret... and you end with 80 farm at 15min.

I would rather pick Tristana. She can make this stupid combo where she jumps+flash+ult enemy under your turret, she have aoe to clear a lot of minions and well... Jump is a escape tool as well. Even ultimate is a good disengage tool.

Tristana

Anyone with a strong enough early game to not require a support either isn't a true late game carry, or is over tuned as hell.

But as for your question, Lucian and Draven are generally regarded as having strong early games iirc.

it's a 2v2 lane. every adc needs a support to at least be present. i suggest looking your support up on op.gg and banning their bad champions and trying to manipulate them into playing their good champions. the meta doesn't matter below diamond

"nami would be great here" etc.

dodge if they have a winrate below 50%, whether it's their overall winrate or on their picked champion. if you don't want to dodge bad games, then you don't want to climb that badly

Adcs that have some form of mobility or self peel. Ezreal Tristana Kaisa Lucian come to mind.

Vayne Ashe Varus can work, just have a weaker early game.
