I find ADC's getting more fed and overall being more obnoxious to deal with than actual carries

Since the last 3 - 5 or so patches. #ADC2k17 was becoming a meme now its the bipolar opposite anyone who says ADC are weak rn are sleeping under a rock with Patrick star. Right now in capable hands they are better at assassinating than actual assassins and even becoming the highest level in the room which should never really happen due to the shared exp bot. I also feel like this is a repercussion of Riots silly idea to give all marksman MR per level.

ADC's are "actual carries" Like... it's LITERALLY in their name.

Because you don't know what a carry is or why ADCs are carries.

Because she is designed to deal with ADCs. Put a Zac against a burst mage my money is on Zac, that doesn't invalidate syndra as a carry.

Zac would also take a while killing Syndra.

I'll push a tower down faster than you can. This is why ADCs remain important; they take objectives fast. This is a game about objectives, not kills.

So... now that towers are weaker... that means marksmen have less of an impact? What you say is true, and would be truer in season 3... but with towers being so weak, Diana could destroy them faster than a non-hyper carry marksmen... they lost their importance.

Today I learned attack damage carries aren't carries.

Who knew!?

It's this hallbuster's all account?

When Ziggs went down the lane of bot side, was it still adc or did it become apc?

If it stayed adc, then the term "ADC" means nothing more than a role, the damaging position at bot side. Seeing how there are two champs bot side, there needs to be a distinction, from the damage role and the support role.

If it became APC-- Ability Power Carry-- then that must mean the term adapted to the champion went bot. I can get Azir or Kennen, or worse, TEEMO, to go bot side and there we go.

As for the carries part-- Mages typical one shot marksmen. Everyone that complained about Syndra, marksmen player. Marksmen are better in the back line dealing dps damage to whomever is closer to them. Mages should use their burst on whoever is the biggest issue.

He stayed an apc because he maintained his AP build.

Ark SorcererJun 12, 20171 votes

If the term then shifted from ADC to APC, that must mean the damage type is not relevant. So that means that somehow, someway, that those champions that go to bot side who are not the support, are the carries of the game by default? ... How does that work?

Sp33d Zer0Jun 13, 20172 votes

If you have an APC top lane, or an ADC top lane, or an ADC in the jungle, they stay a carry. Why is that? Ex: Oh, we really want to see insert LCS jungler here on a carry this game.

Or "Well, it will be tough for this enemy team come late game because they have two adcs (noting graves / lucian outside of the botlane role)
