What if they made Cassiopeia an ADC mage, in an ADC role? Like, literally go bot lane.

Might go terribly wrong (we learned from Mordekaiser), but I think it could work. I mean Cassiopeias mechanics are adc-like already so I guess it COULD work. Ill probably get downvoted since it may be a bad idea. But riot could try...

They risked their ass with Mordekaiser, who is nothing close to an ADC, but Cassiopeia is similar to an ADC so it could go well if you think about it. Since they are going all about the "archetypes" of roles (like for example: Graves is the "bruiser" adc or Caitlyn the "Sharpshooter" adc) Cassiopeia could be like a Mage with an AD carry-style gameplay :P .

P.S: She would still have AP scales, I mean ADC mechanics.

IDK JUST AN IDEA

The issue is not having ADC mechanics. The issue is solving the high gold, low level advantage ratio of power that ADCs must function by.

Because the Support is sitting right there leeching experience from the Bot Lane's primary carry, ability (and thus, level/experience) reliant champions either will become far weaker relative to everyone else in the game (which is why we don't see too many AP champs bot ever) or would have to be artificially powerful to compensate for the mechanical friction (Mordekaiser).

Because the interactions between a given mage's base stats and the power that AP you can buy is highly biased towards the Mage's base stats the vast majority of the time, simply shoving an AP champ like Cass into bot lane is either going to flop massively, or make Cass artificially broken for a patch or two before flopping massively.
