sure there is master yi can jungle, ranged adcs not so much anymore
Yi is obnoxious.
Well I wanna adc with people like Alistar and Zac, so riot needs to buff them too.
For most intents and purposes, melee adc is a pretty useless term.
It basically means "fighter/assassin that scales with crit". Scaling with crit isn't really that meaningful, as all crit does is increase your damage output, and damage output can be increased in several other ways. Which leaves little meaningful differences between crit-scaling fighters like Aatrox, Fiora, Tryndamere, Yi, Yasou, and Gangplank from not reliant on crit scaling fighters/assassins like Riven, Irelia, Jax, Poppy, Xin'Zhao, Trundle, etc.
Also - the main reason to run with a marksman is sieging towers and objectives when the other team is there. If you want sustained physical damage, there are tons of champions that can easily replace marksman.
And fighter/assassins fullfill a very different roll from marksman. Marksman are pretty solid in team-fight situations where they can safely position themselves and generally pretty awful in a 1v1 (especially if they get stuck in melee range), where alternatively fighters are amazing in 1v1 duels and pretty awful in team-fights.
Anyways - melee ADCs don't need buffs so they can replace marksman.
