adc's need their version of the "mana regen nerf"

Knight SoIaire ··5 votes·697 views

"mana regen nerfs" were mainly aimed at midlane and they had a purpose of bringing an entire class of champions (mages) to the spot that riot gave them in concept

by concept mages with mana are able to run oom and they fill warious roles in team with their kits

but if riot found this to be a point of their concern then why wasnt adc or marksman role fixed first ?

by the concept adc is a ranged autoatacker who's main role is dealing sustained damage, this makes them more effective vs tank since they dont run oom nor are limited by cooldowns, so they can just hit the tank for as long as it takes and once they drop him and they dont need to wait for anything to go for the next target

but in our surrent game adc's can deal similar damage with autos to assasins during their burst in similar time frames which gets escalated even harder when they fight tanks (or should i say melt them) and riot ballanced them around that damage output making the game about killing enemy carry

if riot wishes to fix the mistakes they made on those roles i think they should go for all of the problems instead of hitting just once class

well i picked adc despite known problem called fighter, because adc's are the ones who shape the ballance hardest as a class, in other classes we just se some champions going op, not entire class that does not imply that all adc's are op, they are ballanced (more or less), but riot went for fixing roles, which is kinda above the ballance itself since roles are guidelines saying how much power should champion have and how should he express it

There are usually two problems when it comes to ADCs and burst, and these tend to be: Caster ADCs: Spell Weavers like Lucian or single ability bursters like Graves. These champions are usually balanced around their burst, however (they tend to have lackluster DPS to their truly auto attack based counterparts). Critical Strike: Which is made even worse by the Infinity Edge.

Honestly, if there really is anything to fix about ADCs, it should be about fixing their Critical Strike Chance mechanic. Redesign it so it favors DPS, not lucky burst shots.

true its easy to see that most of our adc's just rushes ie and waits to crit you before they actualy trade with you

Just fix crit. I remember back when they removed dodge because "RNG is un-fun!" Well okay, but now it's time to fix crit so it isn't RNG-based.

Crit should be reworked to deal a modification to the attack damage based on the percent. Say with 100% Crit your auto attacks deal 200% damage Or with 50% they deal 100% damage And so on.

They are fine. Looking at the current meta, every lane can carry, even top lane is strong now. The only role which needs a change is the jungle. Riot destroyed the jungle with their silly changes.

well you speak ballance wise, and yes they are ballanced

but tell me were all of our mages op before mana regen nerfs? both of us know that they werent, riot nerfed mana regen becuase mages were suposed to run out of it, thats how that class was intended to work

i dont want adc's to be simply nerfed, i want riot to adres the way their role works, for mages it was a simple nerf but adc's will probably need something much diferent since their issues are more complicated

Okay...Time to do a data tree :D ADC champs(Listed BY RIOT):Azir Ashe Caitlyn Corki Draven Ezreal Gnar Graves Jayce Jinx Kalista Kennen KogMaw Lucian MissFortune Quinn Sivir Teemo Tristana Twitch Urgot Varus Vayne Of these, how many can shred a tank who builds lots of armor exceedingly well?Azir Corki Draven Ezreal Gnar Jayce Jinx Kalista Kennen KogMaw Lucian MissFortune Teemo Tristana Urgot Varus Vayne Which of these don't need armor Penetration?Azir Corki Ezreal Gnar Jayce Kalista Kennen KogMaw Lucian MissFortune Teemo Urgot Varus Vayne How many of these are only able to do this without the utilization of magic damage?Gnar Kalista Urgot Vayne How many of these are traditionally used as adc champs?Vayne Kalista How many of these are able to do this without the use of % HP scaling or executes? Zero Therefore, the way to counter an adc is with armor aside from two champions, which neither of them are able to do so without attack speed... How do you lower attack speed? item 3110 item 3143 summoner 3 Anivia 's glacial storm,Darius 's Crippling Strike,Malphite 's ground slam,Nasus 's wither, and Nunu 's Absolute Zero and Ice Blast
