Lots of Ziggs ADCs?

I must have missed something because I'm seeing it more and more often >.>

Getting large leads early is extremely critical right now, and ADCs have always been about the late game sustained power. This means that ADCs themselves aren't in a strong spot right now (even when they get a few items they have trouble killing tanks, which is kind of their job ... and tower killing). Ziggs has a much better early / mid game during the time where the game is more often decided. He's amazingly good at taking down towers with his passive and Satchel (W i think).

So a combo of him being great at tower taking, wave pushing, and strong early game alongside ADCs being in a bad spot atm is why he's here.

true, Ziggs Bot actually falls to ~45% winrate past 35 minutes but usually his team will snowball way before that

i'd rather his W had a higher AP ratio vs champs than these super fast turret executes on it. it can be a bit obnoxious even though it's his niche.

It's because he can bomb towers [zombie-brand-mindblown]

there are ZERO Ziggs ADC

anyway, he takes turrets fast and ADCs are mostly dumb vs him. they take armor seals still, often don't have full MR glyphs, stand near minions, stand too close to support, don't build an early Hexdrinker, still take Fervor etc.

Ziggs bot is good but a big part of what makes him good is ADC players failing to adapt whatsoever.

Ziggs is never an ADC. He's an "APC": "Ability Power Carry".

Every single one I've been up against has cost his team the game. By all means play Ziggs ADC if you're against me - you're not a pro and without coordination from the rest of the team you make it extremely easy for the others to counter you.

Mid Ziggs on the other and with a proper ADC is a pain in my ass. Stalls games for forever then I have to deal with a ADC that made it to late game.
