"ADCs are broken!" "They 2-shot!"

In WHAT elo? Wood division? I haven't seen that happen at any time other than during a bot game where I'd be like 4k gold and 3-5 levels on the enemy. Because I'll tell you, having an item 3031 item 3086 item finished doesn't kill a Sion with full lethality build, an Evelynn with only item 1402 , nor a Janna with all support items in remotely two auto attacks...

So kindly link me any of your pvp games where that happens, but I'll bet that's about as probable as finding a goddamn unicorn. I don't do that much dmg until MAYBE late game (~30-35 minutes) where everyone's near full build and I'm running 80% crit on somebody with absolutely no health/armor/shields/ Even then I'd suspect they'd have to sit still and let me auto them like 6-8 times before I kill them.

Update: As expected, lots of downvotes but no evidence-based rebuttal. Typical of the boards here :)

They 2-3 shot with a good crit with rfc,ie and statik. Dont lie to yourself man, its so common seeing a Tristana or Twitch be ahead and just insta killing someone.

No dude, I've seriously never seen that happen any time recently. I'm counting my autos; are you guys?

Attacking 2.5 times each seconds makes it seem like a lot less. Old Kog attacked you 5 times each sec but you didnt say ''KOG 30000 SHOT ME!'' And yes, I have witnessed crit adcs 2-3 shotting when ahead. Caitlyns headshot + statik + rfc + a good crit literally can take away 1/3 of a bruiser or tanks hp.

"Yesh ADCs 2-shot, just give em 800 AD, 100% crit chance and make em 4 levels over their defenseless target and you'll see!"

No but seriously, all bruisers have to do is rush item 3047 and sit on that for a while before they invest in any hard defensive items till their like 4th or 5th item maybe. Until then, they've ample opportunity to not only survive but demolish a carry if they put some thought process behind their attack.

The 10 armor nerf hurt a lot. Trust me, when crit adcs go out of favor then tabis will work a lot better. Besides, isn't it fucking tireing seeing Tristana Caitlyn Xayah all the time for the past 8 months?

Was it like a sona support or the enemy ADC who didn't trade back?

You're kinda salty man, someone provides you with some anecdotes and you just say that it wasn't the right kind of 2 shot.

I mean, dravens kinda designed to be a 1 item powerspike lane bully. He falls off a cliff mid-late game. And it was probably more 3-4, as you probably used E+R (and Q might make each auto count as 2 hits... It is an ability if we are gunna be fair to other ADCs)

"pretty much" =/= 1-2 autos

Angrychickén1 votes

auto, e, auto, q, auto.

That does a ton of damage and takes under a second to pull off.

I can just ult to finish the kill.
