to oneshot or be oneshoted, that is a question.

Whenever I play adc I either one shot everyone cause I'm fed or my wukong top fed a fiora and she one shots me aha.

AstôlfoNov 21, 20165 votes

It's mostly the former, unless the one playing said ADC is a complete blithering idiot.

So you're telling me people can hit for 600 damage on one auto at level 1?

Am I high guys?

SchàdenfreudeNov 21, 20163 votes

That was a nice attempt at humor.

Too bad nobody laughed.

GULAG 4 UNov 21, 20164 votes

So, is my point false anyways? It isn't.

AstôlfoNov 21, 201611 votes

Congratulations exaggerating what OP said into a strawman.

GULAG 4 UNov 21, 20161 votes

I'm pretty sure OP meant one shot as of literally, and I am quite aware that not many ADCs can perform this other than Vayne and Caitlyn.

AstôlfoNov 21, 20161 votes

Who said anything about level 1 though?

And you're relying on your own assumption to attack another's point.

GULAG 4 UNov 21, 20161 votes

Even at lategame it's pretty physically impossible for an ADC to oneshot unless it's Cait/Jhin/Vayne.

AstôlfoNov 21, 20161 votes

To be fair, oneshot is a bit of an exaggeration, but you're still probably going to die in a second to any ADC lategame if they focus you.

GULAG 4 UNov 21, 20161 votes

Well, that isn't false...

Unless it's a tank master yi trying to hit you : ^)

That's the whole game. Champions have been designed around doing everything they have to in under five seconds.

Look, they pander to people who don't have the kind of attention or devotion to video games that MOBAs typically request. It's just a product of the playerbase.

Y'all wanted this. Y'all did it. Now you can sit there and watch.

Unless your a reworked assassin, then you just cheer on the 9k shield death tank riven, hecarim, while providing emotional support to the krug family.

Sir FuzziNov 21, 20163 votes

Okay, so they rolled out an entire wave of champions based on instant burst with staged damage passives that belong on bruisers or ADCs (IE: forced to commit to a fight wholly to get benefit).

What, are you telling me that's all ass-backwards?

Naaaaaaaaaaaw...

If you think people die fast in League, you should play some Dota.

There's no such thing as a "tank" late game in Dota 2.

SpoofghoulNov 21, 20161 votes

And there is in league?

Please

Please

There absolutely is.

Say whatever you want about late game tank survivability in League, but in League you can still be a big threat with your crowd control late game, setting up kills for your carries who have not fallen off. Even a Vayne or Yasuo late game can be immediately killed by a competent team if Amumu Q and ults them.

Against a late game carry in Dota 2 they use their black king bar and get a free Olaf ult. And that carry can easily kill you regardless of what tank items you have, by themselves.

In Dota 2, a team of five carries versus a well-balanced team comp that has less than five carries in the late game will result in the five carries stomping (it's just hard to get to that point since non-carries tend to have much better early games that can abuse carries).

No I fucking didn't :P I never asked for ADCs to two shot people, I never asked for turrets made of matchsticks and oily rags...

Neko CaitlynNov 21, 20162 votes

Since ADCs cant 1 shot anything except Shaco boxes, they only get 1 shotted.

DKM BismarckNov 21, 20164 votes

"Can't one shot anything" you have caitlyn in your name dont make me laugh with your 1.5k headshots on squishies before the squishy can even touch you.

AstôlfoNov 21, 20162 votes

Assassin: Lemme use my mobility and skills to outplay her autos by dodging her.... her.... never mind.

DKM BismarckNov 22, 20161 votes

For real though

You just summed up Overwatch

RebonackNov 21, 20161 votes

Rocket tag.

LovelleNov 21, 20161 votes

True, but they have range and crits to make up for it. Ranged crit wins games.

Its either one shot, or be one shot.

It is what it is. Either be the prey or get some cs and be the the hunter.

ObeifyNov 21, 20161 votes

Trueeeeee, honestly its more like Either get oneshot at the beginning of the fight or live long enough to see yourself get oneshot 2 seconds into the fight.

I love trying to position around a teanfight against a leblanc/katarina with a vi/nocturne and a olaf/renekton/malphite/poppy etc. Enemy team. It is times like that when you just stay bot and let them gang bang you while your team takes objectives.
