Games have been ending faster. Adc's suck again because by the time they are really strong, the game is almost over. The S7 meme is back. I heard this from rossboomsocks video on how 2 people known as the sticky bandits who are probably master teir went from unranked to diamond in 30 games as Leona Taric bot. No adc. I decided to start playing assassins to test this out and I did extraordinary well. The first game, I lost because the game went on for too long. Everything after that went pretty smoothly. I then tried talking and I made the enemy team surrender all 3 times.im surprised I didn't get an s and my scores were amazing. Anyways are we back in the assassin meta

The adc role is actually pretty dominant right now. Vayne is blatantly overpowered with the relic shield/overheal setup, her burst damage is much too high, her laning phase too strong, and she scales too fast. Tristana is still a solid, safe pick that scales very well and does solid damage in the mid game and laning phase. Xayah and Twitch are also pretty strong atm. The only good assassins currently are Katarina, Kha'Zix, and kinda blue kayn if you're really good, although red kayn is absolutely the more reliable path to take. Lethality J4 also, if he can be considered an assassin.
