Hey folks, I'm looking for some advice on what to play. ADC seems to be in demand these days and I don't like my current options, nor do I want to play the big three (as I see it) - Jinx, Lucian, Vayne. I've played a few champs and I'm still looking. I was thinking of trying one of the following three next:
Twitch Jhin Kindred
I really like Varus but he seems to require a lot in the way of your support having a clue. I need an ADC slightly more forgiving. Any thoughts?
ZDrahgonz1 votesYou could try Caitlin, she has a lot of range and poke but its important to be able to position yourself in the right spot to be able to maximize her potential.
DuoQ1 votesThe real question is if you are trying to rank up or not; if you want those Elo gains you need to play the meta adcs which are currently Ezreal, Lucian, and Caitlyn. Those are the "Big Three" that will help you climb very easily, and they are not hard to play at all.
If you wanna play just to have fun, I found that Quinn is really fun and I really like playing vanye. It really just depends, good luck & cya on the field.
PhantomGG1 votesThe most forgiveing adc to learn in my opinion is tristana
Pros
+super mobile, can get resets on her dash +super safe scaleing +ok lane phase +easy to farm with +has a built in long ranged lee sin kick
Cons +slow scaleing +super item reliant +easily bullied if she does not have a good support
ThatWood5Guy1 votesTwitch and kindred belong I'm the jungle, not bot lane.
Corki, varus, jhin and ezreal do much better midlane, but it's not uncommon to take them bot with success.
Draven, Ashe, Tristana, and Quinn are very strong niche picks, situationally amazing, but horrible if picked into the wrong opponent. (I.e., don't pick Draven into Ezreal. Seriously, its a bad idea, just don't do it. However, if the opposing ADC already locked in Kalista, feel free to dust off Ashe, because you have the advantage)
That said, the reason Jinx, Lucian and Vayne are the big three and most commonly pick/ban is because of their relative safe lane phase, giant powerspikes after finishing ER, and amazing synergies with their supports. (Sometimes it feels like Braum was MADE to lane with Lucian)
Anyway, if you're looking for one of the non big three, Cait, Corki, Trist and Quinn are in a really good place at the moment, and can be pretty abusive
