So, yeah, ADCs.

ZERO ARMOR PEN CAITLIN, shreds a Malphite with >450 armor as if he were a glass ADC, and does 800+ damage to anyone who isn't Malphite MORE THAN ONCE A SECOND at extreme range, with no cost, drawback, risk, skill, aiming, or anything.

But no, ADCs are fair and balanced! They take skill! They have counterplay!

Let's also not forget how horribly toxic spellvamp is, but how extremely healthy it is for someone to right-click and become more of a drain tank than Vladimir or Swain. Yeah, that's totally balanced.

... Yeah. Fuck you, Riot.

19-3 cait level 18. 3-9 malph level 16 with a cheap armor build heh. and i doubt she bursted him she just outsustained your dmg having 2 lifesteal items and beeing really far ahead thus you lost. oh did i mention she has like 3 frontliners kek

NiyumiAug 25, 20161 votes

Did I mention she could walk into our team by herself, and kill any squishies while ignoring Malph, and then going on to kill the Malph? She literally two shot Yasuo, Soraka and Jhin, and three shot me. Malph, she killed in ~1.5-2s. Took no time at all.

that's what adc's do to squishy target i'm afraid.. and malph does negative dmg if the enemy adc has BT lul. sorry not sorry mate i hate adc's too but if you manage to get outleveled by the adc you do something wrong and deserve to lose. bye now

Now... how did Riot justify ADCs being the easiest but strongest class in the game...

"Not bursty"
"No self peel"
"No mobility"
"Weak against multiple people"
"Easy to kill"
"Squishy"

... You know, I can't think of a single ADC that fits all those.

do you take anything riot say's in a serious manner? lel. come on bro you can't be that gullible

NiyumiAug 25, 20161 votes

Honestly, no. I think that 95% of what Riot says is a straight up lie -- and how they do that without being sued is beyond me. I've learned to not trust what people say, especially if they work in the government or for some greedy company like Riot.

She was full build what the hell do you expect? That she was gonna do 10 for auto against Malph? Malph didn't even build Randuins.

NiyumiAug 25, 20161 votes

Well, considering he had ~467 armor, and she had 7% armor pen from masteries and nothing else... I wouldn't expect her to down a Malph with that much armor near-instantly.

But hey, that's balance.

Armor alone isnt enough you have to have hp with it. She was a full crit and attack speed build. When you do that kind of dps it dont matter she had no arm pen. J4 and sion provide arm pen for her with j4 having black clever and arm shred in his q, sion has arm pen with his e

EndlessSorcererAug 25, 20161 votes

Jarvan and Sion had abilities which reduce their target's armor by a percentage when hit and Jarvan had a Black Cleaver on top of that.

I'd expect that Malphite had about half of his armor shredded by those two champions when Caitlyn was hitting him. She didn't need to build armor penetration since she had teammates who could shred it for her.

Imagine if the Malphite wasn't a stupid moron and built some HP.

Sooo who went bot lane with her?

Caitlyn had an 80% crit chance build with 210 ad from items 30% lifesteal from items and +105% attack speed not including runes/masteries +9 ad runes and + 11% attack speed . masteries of +4% attack speed +2% lifesteal +1% damage for every champ killed (assume she killed all 5 ) so +5% damage + 7% armpen and key stone fervor of battle , then she has the merciless mastery for +5% damage for targets below 40% hp. if you were considered "isolated" cait did +2% damage to you. dont really need arm pen when you have dps stats like this

so her base ad at lvl 18 is 94+210 is 304 ad with 80% crit chance with item 3031 which would make her crits do 250% damage so lets say she crits one time base damage with crit would be 760 that is with out headshot passive, and with out caluclating all the bonus damage amplifiers she has from runes of =1% damage per unique champ killed up to 5% +7% armor pen and lets say you are isolated so that +2% and you are now below 40% hp +5% and she has full stacks of fervor at lvl 18 on you which is 112 bonus damage per auto so 760+5% is 798+ now malph has 245 base armor +30% from ability passive which with out runes /masteries is 319 armor and she has 7% armor pen which gives her 23 armor pen reducing his armor to 297ish. so 798 +2% damage is 814 damage and you are now below 40% hp for +5% damage 855 damage +112 bonus damage from keystone for is 967 on crit before arm pen and with out headshot passive

967 damage + her 105% +11%+4% is +120% attack speed base attack speed is .57 +68% at lvl 18 so .57+188% is 1.64 attacks per sec. so if she does 10 autos and crits 8 out of ten then her damage is 967x8=7736 her 2 none crit autos is 455x2 for 910 damage for a total of 8646 damage in about 11 secs before arm pen if every one of her autos hits a target... still not including headshot passive or the aoe passive damge from item 3085 and of course before any damage reduction items the target may have.

the malphite was doing something horribly wrong if this happened.

but at the same time i agree that adcs in general have it much easier vs tanks nowadays

ZERO ARMOR PEN CAITLIN

You do realize that both the Jarvan and Sion (on Caitlyn's team) have abilities which reduce the target's armor, right? In addition, Jarvan had Black Cleaver to further reduce the armor of anyone he is attacking.

Malphite's armor would have been reduced by over a third even if she didn't build armor penetration. Considering he built Runic Echoes, he wasn't even anywhere's near as tanky as he could have been in the first place.

Also, on second look their team appears to have two junglers and no support. Did Caitlyn somehow manage to dominate her lane in a 1v2?

You do realize that between the sion and the j4 having black cleaver she was getting more than enough armor to amplify her 100% squishy full damage build right?
