Idea On How to Help Crit-Based ADCs

With the recent changes to ADC, very few marksman are able to keep up with the aggressive and fast meta that the bottom lane consist of. Lucian thrives on the stat changes also well as his new tool, Essence Reaver. Kai'Sa excels while utilizing AP on-hit items. Crit based marksman are left in a bad spot after the changes, but the champions aren't the problem.

The big nerfs were the changes to Zeal items and Infinity Edge. The way I see it, as a long time ADC main (since season 3 if that matters), is that the build path for a standard crit build is unoptimized and too expensive for what it gives. I think making Zeal items less expensive (but not the price they used to be) would help out along with their crit chance being lowered to 25%. At the current state these items are in, if you buy a Zeal item and an IE you are left with 60% crit. This means you have a 40% chance of dealing less damage in a teamfight, which could have maybe won the fight. If you buy two Zeal items thought, you get the 100%, but you waste the gold you spent because you have 20% crit chance over the cap. This makes the build really unoptimized and making Zeal items have 25% crit would not only keep their item spikes in the early game weaker like riot wanted, it makes it so the build is optimized and you waste no gold.

Now IE is another problem as its main benefit right now is to double your crit chance, and the true damage on crits is too weak too make these builds strong. I think making the conversion rate higher would help the item, or maybe make it so instead of transforming some of the damage as true damge, it grants additional damage as true damage instead.

The build path for IE is also something that makes it off putting to build. Double BF sword makes it so that rushing it first item hurts your laning phase as its harder to piece up fighting stats and instead forces you to save up. If you're forced to back because the support or bot laner bullied you before you can afford a bf sword, you're left returning with a weak back making it really hard to lane.

Crit ADCs are left with no real good first items as stormrazor is more of a niche buy and getting a Zeal items doesnt give too good of a power spike. Crit based ADCs are also meant to scale through as the game goes late, but with vlad and many bruisers crushing the lane and taking over there is no time or space to farm and scale because by the time you hit your two or three item power spike the game is already over. Stat changes also make it so that its really easy to kill ADCs in general making it easy for bruisers to tower dive constantly. I don't have any resolutions to these issues, but I'm more trying to put them out there. These are just some ideas to try and help crit champs who are suffering maybe comeback into the meta without trying to get rid of some of the other new meta bot laners. Be sure to tell me how you feel and even recommend your own solutions.

Tl;dr crit items are the issue, stat changes make it impossible to lane, the champs are fine
