is Kalista worth playing if ADC is my least played role?

played graves as my only adc last season but now that he is FoTM i need something else, is Kalista too mechanically intensive for someone who doesn't play ADC much? (like 1 in 30 games)

i main Ahri Zed Fizz mid and Riven Rumble Nidalee Jayce top so my overall mechanics are good, is she like any of them?

Kalista is probably one of the easiest ADC's because she has a low skill cap and skill floor, anybody can pick her up, and that's what Riot intended. The only thing hard about her is that your support is a big factor on how you actually do in lane, and later in game.

But the only problem is I don't think Kalista is like any of those champions, because it's hard to compare Ranged to Mages and Assasins, but if anything I'd say she's like Ahri the most when it comes to being able to jump from place to place. Kalista can just do it all the time. Ahri can only do it when ults up.

I disagree about her being not mechanically intensive as far as marksman are concerned, she is rather difficult to move properly and her non cancelable auto Attack can lead to odd interaction with creeps and champs. I mainly play ADC and I generally view Kalista to be near Vayne in terms of difficulty.

All ADC's can kite. She can just do it far more better. That's what makes her easy.

She's AA intensive and very position relient since you can re-position with your passive. She seems easy enough, but since I'm an old hand I prefer the likes of Corki/Graves because all you need to do is roll your face over the keyboard and win. Since it seems you like champions with high mobility, Kalista seems close to your preferance of highly mobile champions. She can EASILY punish lesser skilled players for their mistakes, so if you do get good with her you will have an easy time. Her main flaw is that she relies on her support heavily because of her abilities, so if your support sucks, you're out on some damage/CC that you should have had.

Not if you don't find her naturally easy. You should aim to play easy yet rewarding champs on roles you don't tend to play as much. That way you don't have to worry much about the champion and can focus on other things.
