Yo! Im a mid main trying to pick up a fun adc, so I was wondering what the best adc for me was. Im an assassin main, and so far my favourite adc is lucian and kindred(Kindred dosent really count but...). I willing to put in time to learn the champ, so difficulty isnt a problem. thx!

If you want to play adc like an assassin, twitch for sure. After his first back, his strategy is basically to stealth into lane and kill his opponent, base, and repeat.

If you want to play adc like a marksman, Tristana is super safe after the update to her W that prevents her from being knocked out of the initial jump, and she outputs a ridiculous amount of damage.

I always build assasain twitch! It's so much fun!!! You sort of go crazy with attack speed, then murder them with cries! Ult out of invisible... when yommus still gave attack speed, it was broken beyond belief... the build is still fun though! I don't have the full build, just go something like item 3085 item 3078 item 3147

:3 You could always run yommus, although it isn't as good as it used to be. You used to go invis, then ult while invis, to get you a ATM speed bonus for coming out of invis and then your ult, Andy then yommus to shred through teams. Sigh... I miss the olden days... and by that I mean a few weeks ago.. maybe a month...

Quinn is your choice if you want a similar mid roaming assassin playstyle. Shes strongest midgame when nobody is grouped and you can zoom around at 600 ms and 100-0ing people, even tanks before theyve bought armor. Take her mid.

Vayne and Twitch are the most assassin-y normal ADCs. Both are strongest late game. Im biased but Vayne is one of the most if not the most fun champion in the game. Twitch when fed can delete entire teams in a few shots but is a sitting duck (rat?) with no escapes.

For fun? Jinx Jhin No question about it. Whichever you would want. Jinx may be a bit more assasain-y and can hyper carry games. Her passive helps her get kills. And Jhin..... I have only played one game with him, and I had so much fun!!! Just watch He spotlights and see which one fits your playstyle!

Starting out I would suggest Caitlyn or Ashe. Caitlyn has good damage output while still remaining somewhat safe and Ashe is always a good safe pick. Lucian isn't in the best place right now but he's still playable, id just suggest holding off on his low range until you've gotten used to running the opposite way into fights.

It's sad.. can play Vayne pretty well, but when it comes to Ashe... -shudders- She's fun though! I think I'm getting better... I haven't fed my last two Ashe games... I mean, we lost them, but still...

Varus. Great poke. And is getting a slight rework that makes him a better adc/teamfighter.

I'd recommend Jhin for perfection.

Support main speaking here, and I have played long enough to know who's easier to just not feed pick up especially when someone doesn't main ADC. In general, caster ADCs are probably the best ways for you to transition from casting style to autoattacks.

If you're a mobility person, Ezreal Lucian and maaaaaybe Corki . If you're a more magelike, Jhin Varus Sivir MissFortune .

Avoid anyone autoattack reliant until you have a better grasp of how to autoattack efficiently.

So, avoid things like Draven Kalista Twitch Vayne , who are all autoattack-reliant and don't have range/skillshots to take kills when behind. That's if you want to learn, of course, because Vayne and Twitch are pretty busted right now.

Thx a lot lulu! I agree with this, but maining yasuo sorta makes u used to autoing lol. Im probably gonna get twitch first. Thx! If i suck at him tho, ill follow ur advice and go for ezreal and lucian. Thx again!

Athenes Lulu1 votes

Yasuo is a special case of autoattack midlaners, but even so, caster styles are still easier to transition into. It's more than just autoattacking that you have to get used to, but as well as the (lack of) self peel and having to use that range.

It is also a very good practice to have more than one ADC in your champ pool as they're more similar to each other in terms of mechanical skill and that unfavorable matchups can become very nasty due to lack of (and again) self peel.

Thx again! However, i havr played twitch on free week, and did pretty good with him. But, if it turns out it wasnjust beginners luck, ill definetly follow you advice!
