A public service announcement to ADCs everywhere

Barkley··121 votes·4,789 views

Your weapons are for shooting projectiles. They should not be used as melee weapons.

There is no hidden pistol whip passive.

You are not going to do a million true damage to a target if you hit them with the butt of your weapon.

Please use your range and stop running up on the enemy team like they owe you money and you're here to dot their eyes if they don't pay up.

Sincerely,

-Every support.

Imagine Gil as an adc.. Support near him: Did i give you permission to keep those trinkets?' Receiving damage: Pathetic, even a small rock gets more painful

To Tryndamere : You remind me of a certain fool that too, refused to die.

The reason I run so close to melees is because I've misclicked and instead of attacking them I ran towards them and I hate using the attack move key because it makes it hard to dodge skill shots because i don't know where my Champion might go because pathing is hard.

Shhh if people realize there are actually nuances to the role people will stop calling us right click monkeys.

Nah people play victim when they may or may not be victims. That's why you have people of every role, every rank, bitching about the same things. Everyone's strugglin'.

Right, so you find strengthening a stereotype for upvote farm is a mere joke. That's sociopathic if you actually think it's a joke.

ADCs everywhere

ironically that also means challenger ADCs and players like Gosu

For someone so righteous about enforcing stereotypes, I find your misuse of sociopathy both ironic and very distasteful. It's a very complex and very serious syndrome that can't be boiled down to "you did X therefore you're a sociopath". Why not call him a nazi for reinforcing stereotypes while you're at it ? Have a downvote good sir.

sociopathic

did not call him a sociopath actually, and I used the "who lacks a sense of moral responsibility or social conscience. " part of sociopath.

"you did X therefore you're a sociopath"

ah ah ah, no one said this my friend.

Why not call him a nazi for reinforcing stereotypes while you're at it

I don't think you understand reinforcing stereotypes and being a member of The National Socialist German Workers' Party. Sorry, but I have no idea how you took what I said and warped it.

You'd be surprised how many ADCs in lower elos that do not realize they are ranged.

Keyword ''Lower elo'' Do not incorporate ''lower elo adcs'' for every other adc main because you're just making them look bad for no reason.

lower elo supports dont buy sight stone

lower elo top laners dont build properly

lower elo mid laners dont build pen

You have a point, but lower elo you don't really need to do these things. So is that an issue with the elo or the players adapting to the elo?

Are we blaming the chicken or the egg?

My point is dont incorporate lower elo with this stuff because its stupid for people to hate higher elo adcs for what their lesser skilled peers do.

Considering the fact that this isn't memes and games I take this as serious and not a joke, and of course the ADC hate train upvoted it. What an annoying boards for ADC players, I swear.

that's actually true there's a projectile travel time your attacks would reach the target quicker if you're closer, not that it's advised though.

Sorry, you had a bad game, but that's no reason to complain online about a single bad player just for the sake of circlejerking.

Like you think I complain about every bad jungler I get who lets his lanes get ganked all day while he powerfarms or does double buffs into krugs as a clear making him unable to gank? You think I complain about every god damn support who doesn't know how to pressure the lane or play safe when we should? No, I don't, nor could I if I wanted to; they're victim roles.

You've never played support or had a half-decent/terrible adc, have you? they do this all the time. Hell, when I play adc, I do this.

AirKingNeo3 votes

I play fucking top lane. Half the time games are decided by who has a better ADC. I've played support; I know what a shitty ADC is. None of this is an excuse to complain online just to circlejerk.

How exactly is it not justified to go and make a PSA to adc's to stop making this mistake? almost every adc I see does this, and as I noted before, even me.

Because he's just bitching about one person and acting like it is all of them. Nothing different from doing that and being racist or sexist.

Dear Supports, kiting is fucking hard to do perfectly and even challengers misclick into people, stop whining when your adc dies. Its already the most stressful role in the game bc theres never a point you cant be 1 shot by something and typing isn't gonna help.
