ADC's don't like Mages bot lane....

But ADC's are unviable in Solo lanes or are** highly niche picks** (Vayne Lucian)

Don't forget: Tristana

Also Koreans had Caitlyn mid for quite a while this season and she still is a pocket pick for some midlaners.

thats because mid laners are really fast to adapt to meta changes while top laners are the crybabies of league right after adc mains

They have gap closers. What do you expect?

Toplaners themselves complain about aatrox because he's basically ranged with Q1 + Q2 and if he gets into melee range that's only to Mutilate you or hes chunked you from Q spam.

Irelai/camille ain't that great to face toplane either with 20%hp passive shield on a lower cooldown than sions W. _As well as a Q that eventually deals cho ult level of true damage but she should have fallen of by that point so whatever. _

Irelia is an abomination why else would she have to have been disected so many times since her rework.

Kled is op and op champs go where they pleasess.

Conversely Things like offtank mage Viktor and tank karma were bullshit because normally their opponents would have equal range to potentially poke/punish them which ain't present in a melee vs range matchup. In fact it favours them due to range advantage.

What mage has received complaints from going top and building as a mage? Maybe Viktor counts, but other than that, the last one I remember is Lissandra which was multiple years ago.

"one shots" "full combos"

These terms do not go together

Aatrox : Went mid before rework Kled : Flat out broken Camille : Not a bruiser Irelia : Also went mid before rework and not a bruiser

I think if you know the match ups well enough, taking a bruiser mid is viable. My first time trying to lane against a JarvanIV or MonkeyKing as a midlaner where kind of tough in part because I had no idea how the match ups work.
