Riot and meddler continue to try to dodge the problems that bot lane pose to game balence in solo q. This includes overall power including being much stronger with 2 items then they should to late game power giving both high levels of burst and sustain damage. To macro problems such as if you bot lane loses tower early even if the other 3 team members are ahead I almost certainly lose the game. They need to come out and say directly they either support want adcs to be stronger and more important then all other roles in solo q or start bring either there mid game or late game more in lane with item and scaling changes as well as how crit works in general or allow tanks to tank them better in the later points of the game

No they haven't? They've clearly stated they have plans coming up soon. This is one of those 'dammed if I do, dammed if I don't' scenarios. There were a bunch of issues with the game we asked them to look at. They're going through the list but something always had to be last. No matter what order they did them in there would always be one that they were "ignoring". They did a massive overhaul of AP itemization. They made a lot of positive changes for top lane. They're fixing early jungle pressure. They're dealing with the Duskblade crutch. You just can't please some people jeez

stating they are doing work on adcs mid season is tip toeing around the issue. adcs and bot lane in general has been a major problem in this game for months. the fact that they wont even shave a small amount of power now is absurd. your gonna tell me that xayah varus don't have some small nerfs to go through right now? even small ones like the vayne and trist ones would help. not to mention trying some things to keep bot tower up past 6 mins if your bot happens to die early so theother 3 players don't get an auto loss not matter how good/bad there play was

He literally said that ADC work was going to be for next mid season. They aren't 100% certain what direction the changes should be and are currently exploring them. Maybe actually do some basic research before saying this sort of stuff?
