ADC doesn't exist anymore

What the hell are you talking about? ADCs are still extremely viable and a staple of botlane, there's just some diversity now. (Thank the Lord.)

You can actually play some non-Marksmans botlane now and not get called a freaking troll every time. ADCs aren't going anywhere, considering how stupidly broken some of them still are (Caitlyn, Vayne, Jhin cough cough), but we have other champions that might encourage more pick diversity botlane.

Not sure what diversity you're talking about, you just listed 3 of 4 playable ADC's Varus

Viable*. There's a very big distinction. If we're talking Ranked, then yes, viable and playable can be intertwined. But for everything else, viable /=/ playable.

Every champ in the game is playable. Not everything is VIABLE.

ADC doesn't exist anymore??? Do we play the same game? Yes, there are a few experiments with mages bot, but 95% of the bot-carries are still ADC, so saying that adc doesn't exist anymore is beyond overexaggerating.

ADCs don't exist when they are still in and are mandatory every single game?

Cool story.

ADCs are still very much around. Most of the ADC2k17 shit that you are seeing is ADCs getting killed by burst mages and assassins, which is how it always was. If anything, the problem is with the mobility creep which prevents ADCs from kiting effectively.

Is that what everyone has been asking for?

Don't forget nobody gets their roles so every game is full of flaming trolls.

Isnt season 1 where ADCs just bought green pot and destroyed everyone, and everyone else was just a support? Or was that season 2? I know it was early in the game.

I started in season 2 and I remember green pots. ADCs were late game gods back then and junglers were pretty much glorified supports. That's around the time I stopped playing SR and moved to Twisted Treeline and Dominion. The last time I remember lots of crying, about ADCs being useless, was at the start of season 3, when the penetration formula got changed and AD casters became busted.

They need to meet in the middle and start this game over from Season 4. Maybe they can actually balance from a patch there.

ADC doesn't exist anymore

So that is why they are still mandatory onbot lane and in every team, bar 1 exception?

Most of those games were bot games or normal games with unranked players.

Furthermore i looked into your game history, and every time you lost your adc sucked ass, while the enemy adc dominated the game.

So basically, you got shitty adcs or you are just a shitty support, while the enemy adc carried their games.

In conclussion, adc's are ok, and still in EVERY GAME possible, while also carrying the game if they are good.

IT is ok, your "experience" and justification for why they are not ok is laughable at best.

Last ten games I've had

No specification, 10 last games are all games that were played last. And i still did not count them. And stop lying i have seen your games.

Now let us look at your last support games.

Sona 0/4/9 loss - Enemy has Kindred adc with a 17/10/5 score.

Leona 2/6/2 loss - Enemy has a MF adc with a 9/4/9 score.

Sona 2/2/17 victory - enemy has a shit 1/9/3 Caitlyn adc, while you playing a normal game dont even have one.

Leona 0/2/8 victory - enemy has a 8/5/5 Jhin adc, while you have a fed kha'zix (Who counters adcs)

Sona 2/6/17 victory - enemy has a shit 2/8/2 Vayne adc, while your ezreal is 9/3/15 adc who carried.

Leona 1/8/17 loss - Enemy has a 16/8/11 MF adc.

Leona 2/7/11 loss - enemy has a 20/5/12 Draven adc.

Leona 0/6/2 loss - enemy has a 2/1/6 jhin adc, and a fed 14/1/4 jax.

Leona 1/3/12 victory - enemy has a 7/5/3 MF adc, while you have a 6/4/12 Jinx adc

Leona 5/10/24 loss - enemy has a 16/13/14 Jhin adc and a 20/15/14 Twitch adc While you have a 6/18/25 Quinn "adc".

Conclussion, in your last 10 games, 7 enemy adcs had score of carries, 2 had shit score and the last one was simply countered by a fed champion.

In those games where the enemy adc had shit scores, your adc, had a good carry score.

So what you said before, is a total bullshit statement.

Furthermore your laughable "data" comes from normal games, the worst place for balance ever. And as someone who plays in high platinum/low diamond as a support, i can tell you, adc's are far from useless or unable to carry. They have shitloads of impact, that is why they are always primary targets in all of the fights, because everyone knows that the adc's have to die first, as they are the most dangerous in the teams.

You know what, I missed a couple, my mistake. It's also clear we don't have the same definition of carrying a game.

But thank you for being pleasant and respectful over it.
