Why changing bot lane so drastically is the sign of adcs death

changing bot lane so drastically after 8 years of normality is a huge and wrong move, they are pushing away the couples that play support/adc. friends that only play duo adc/support bot... and adc (very much considered a solo carry role) pretty much removing that solo carry role puts people off the game...well if it puts me off im sure it puts other people off.

botlane is almost the only lane that has shown a constant meta and a sign of normality while all of the other roles have been mixed up quite a lot of times.

ever since i started botlane iv had mates were i instinctively know what they are doing as a support simply because iv played so many games with them, then i know numerous couples that only play adc and support bot and flat out refuse or dodge if they dont get it, then you have solo carry people, with adc being one of the only lanes were u can still solo carry 95% of the length of the game without falling off, if you play with skill and dont mess up...

league has been an ever changing game with changes that do kill off small amounts of players but ultimately bring a lot more new players in..

but why will league die if they keep following this concept of diversity in all lanes ? because you remember that grind to 30? were lanes were a mess 2 people top playing stupid champs like vi and soraka... well when you hit 30 you had to learn a whole new game because everything leading up to that was just people playing champs they had...

well right now all the new players are playing adc botlane and practising it because thats been the " norm" for 8 years and one of the only lanes you can say go adc and its pretty self explanatory and most around 60% of new players go to main adc 1st, i know i did with ashe being the 1st champ i ever mained.. but why is this a problem ? well go back to having to relearn the game when u hit 30... they have been practising adc for 2-3 months then are thrown into a completely different world of this crazy botlane meta... they realise league isnt what it was and just leave because they are getting cheesed.

ok combine the lack of new players learning adc correctly + having to learn a completely alien meta to new players (one of the most drastic meta changes btw) + an alien meta to most of adc mains.. these players will just flat out leave with a few maybe trying new roles. but after spending most of the blue essence on adcs (people normally pick a lane and stay with it for 30 levels and tend to stay and main that lane) and have hardly any other lane champs, they stick with it or flat out leave after realising their role is useless.

ok now lets talk why couples are a huge part of leagues player base and always has been.. ever since i started league in season 3. iv come across 100s if not thousands of couples that play only adc and support bot? why because thats the lane they synchronise best with? thats the lane they learnt together when starting league, thats the lane they can play with, while ignoring the rest of the team... adc + support is pretty much a couples calling.. and pretty much best mates calling aswell....

now combine those 5 massive points new players + Couples + Best mate duos + Solo Carry potential + highly skill based strip that away over night and you have a lot of people that dont know what they are doing, getting stomped by top and mid players that transgress down to a easy winnable lane, people feeling like all the time spent in a lane gone over night and lost with no other lane really to play and you have a lot of people pissed off and bored...

now you might say sure adc has been very dominate in the games outcome, but so has every other lane with their very long periods of dominate meta play.. but adc is one of the roles you can say ok if i play well, farm well and relay on my skill we will win this game, something no other role can do....

when i have bad games as adc i normally have shocking early and mid games but i can normally recover and win late game... but with the meta the way it is you cant do that right now.. skill is being stomped out by noobie champs that dont belong in a lane AKA the squishy killers that have no right to be in a lane with a squishy during laning.

why has this been a long time coming and not just an overnight thing and why i think this is riots whole aim... it all started about 3 seasons ago when brand moved down to botlane support and my god did people find that annoying and shake the meta quite a bit.. then small changes in the meta, duskblade etc etc have slowly been pushing adc into the ground not much but its noticeable.. this carried on for 3 seasons like they are milk feeding change into botlane. then came pyke an assassin botlane "support" very questionable as a support... anyway then came the nerfs to crit adc what i thought completely stupid.... because when adcs call out for duskblade nerfs, tank nerfs, support nerfs they are completely ignored, but when u have top lanes and mids complain about crit adcs riot flat out goes and re does all of the crit items with 1-2 patch of warning go and re do all of the adc base stats and bring all these "marksman " changes in... but still leaves champs like wu, zed, riven etc etc list is endless completely untouched.

the reason this is so important is because, a good player can kill a good adc quite fcking easy really easy but when you have a good team they can stomp and adc in seconds.. this is how it should be they are a carry with a threat and should be treated and prioritised as such.. just like how all other carries are.. im sorry riot you dont go flat out nerf and completely change and say " uhmm we want diversity in the way adc's play, ie on hit builds, crit builds, sustain builds" well riot that depends on the champ you play... ie things like kalista and varus are on hit builds and varus was very dominate without any crit. then you have ez who doesnt even use crit, draven that uses substain/ crit builds, lucian that uses substain/onhit/crit builds, mf that uses leathlity, kai sai that uses ap, corgi that uses triforce, kog maw on hit, quinn an assassin bird build, graves that uses substain/onhit/ crit, twitch onhit/crit/ substain, ashe hugly on hit.

now yes you have champs like trist, vayne, jhin, cait that use pruly crit only.. you should be asking why, why do adcs play these 4 main champs ? why ? well because every other lane have one hit champs. riven wu, panth,xin gp, zed, syndra list is endless of one hit champs in other lanes.. the reason adcs play these "op crit champs" is to deal with the op one hit champs... now that is adcs counter to those champs, just like tank champs are to those champs... now why do adc only go those champs ? because all adcs are pretty much the same, unless its built into the kit of the champ its very hard to counter those kinda champs, crit allowed you to do that... removing crit fucks all of that up and makes all adcs useless even onhit and substain....

Now what could you have done ?its sad you listen to zed one tricks that cant kill adcs then they call for the nerf of crit items, when in reality you should be bringing in shit loads of new adc items to bring diversity to the play of adc.. not nerfing the current ones and destroying the lane.. its very questionable what you are doing in botlane... because we can be destoryed by good teams, good players, op champs... its easy to kill an adc unless ur a super good adc, even then if ur a super good adc you can still get fcked on...

crit adc had loads of weakness and loads of counter champs, but because some people cry and beg on the forums you do a complete adc stat rework, re do most of the items pretty much over night.... but still leave in all those champs that shit on adcs ??? it doesnt really make sense does it riot... unless thats what you have planned on doing for quite a few seasons, with the slow implications like brand and pyke bot...

now i dont play adc because its "op " iv never seen it being op because its so easy to shut and adc down if ur uhmmm i dont know a good player or a good team... adc shine at stomping on shit teams for a reasooon.. now again i dont play adc because its op i play it because its one of the only consitant lanes in the game a lane you can truly control if you know how... and you use that to ur advantage.... sooooo many people play adc because its been the same for 8 years nothing has changed... jungle changing 24/7... assassins and mages being reworked... but none of that happens in bot lane till now... and when it does you fuck up pretty hard.. to the point adc killers are laning vs fcking adcs... thats not good and destorys the balance of the game..

now im going to get told... but adc has been op for those 8 years aswell... well thats normally because as an adc when you come across a good one they will shit on you and make you slap ur own ass... but by christ when you come across a bad adc hell do you know about it.. not really the case with other roles is it ? if you really think about it the skill difference in adc is hella noticeable and for a reason... but when that is removed all overnight because of some unneeded and questionable calls for doing it.. then ur killing off a lot of players that play adc and for the reason they play it.

im sorry you cant say that adcs are op, there are plenty of tools in lol to destory even the most fed adcs... that dont work ??? i dont know try working as a team ? instead of coming to the forums and beggging beging riot to fuck our lane up... well congratz youv done it you convinced riot to fuck our lane up and convinced them to make ur life easier.

next time riot.. think about how ur changes will effect our lane instead of just doing what you think is best and that you think adc will turn out just fine.... well let me point this out... adc is never going to be the same... and if it is all the people that play adc will have gone and left the game.......

now i dont play fornite but ur doing what fornite are doing to their building system... nerfing the building while adding anti building items aswell.. your doing this with adc
