Best ADC to learn the role

I have kinda got a good strategy for each role except for adc. I just got around to learning it, but I wanted to know what you guys think about the best ADC for a new person to the role. I prefer a easy to pick up and hard to master champion, but I also love the really hard challenges. Can you guys make suggestions?

Ashe Caitlyn Varus

Ashe: Kiting, Power Spikes, Chasing Caitlyn: Trading, Ranges, Animations Varus: Combos, Harass, Positioning

i would learn caitlyn ashe graves and ezreal, they give you the feel for each of the "types" of ADCS caitlyn for the pokers ashe just because shes easy and basically always viable graves because hes unique because he autos a lot but still relies on spells and then ezreal for him and kog'maw. i would learn ashe first then caitlyn then graves then ezreal see who you like the most then try to find out who fits into the category of ADCs

Easiest to not die with: Ezreal

Easiest to poke with: Cait

Best all around to learn the role with: Ashe

Just kinda depends. They all do the same thing yet in a different way

Trading is extremely important. I also feel as though it would be best to learn the ADC position with a champion with no mobility. You will get much better at positioning this way, and once you learn the role and you choose which ADC you want to main you won't have to rely on their mobility to survive because you will be so used to living without mobility. This will make you a better player than those that overly rely on their mobility. You will notice that a lot of Ezreal mains aren't as good at positioning because they are used to playing a champion that can just flash away. You will also notice Ashe mains are damn good at positioning because they if they don't position correctly they die.

So, because Ashe is being reworked and she will be the only ADC that doesn't rely on RNG to crit, I would suggest learning with Varus. No mobility. Great poke. Great champion to learn on imo. You will learn quickly how important trading and positioning is as him.

I'd say Ashe, Sivir, Caitlyn, or Miss Fortune are some pretty simple ones to get started with.

Here's how to be good:

  1. Win trades, and if you can't win it, try to avoid it altogether.
  2. Position further forward in the lane the better you're doing. Also be just as far forward as your support in most cases.
  3. Last hit well and don't push the lane unless the enemy ADC isn't there and you can push to tower.
  4. Have map awareness.
  5. When you're helping in a fight, don't just die instantly. It's better to have some times of not doing damage at all than to do that little more damage and then just get wrecked. A good place to start is at the end of your attack range against the furthest forward enemy and keep attacking him/her.

I would suggest that you stay away from ADCs like Tristana and Corki, until you learn some of the basics first. Caitlyn would definitely be the easiest to start with. Miss Fortune is also pretty easy to learn with.
