If you are not an ADC main why even bother playing ranked

80% of a game curently is in their hands or that is how it feels like

You know the meta is retarded when I feel obligated to main adc in order to climb

Maybe if Ezreal was in better state I would put adc as secondary

Despite Ezreal being broken in jungle he is garbage at adc role

Which fking says alot

If this is what you think, then we could reasonably conclude that all of the top challenger players are ADC mains?

rank 1 and 2 in euw and korea are all adc mains

Yeah, 3/10 of the top 10 on those servers.

But I am answering to the OP's statement "if you are not an adc main why even bother playing ranked?". Was the IMT sub not able to get to 1k lp KR challenger in less than a month playing jungle? And don't forget Stunt and POB.

Pro players ussualy abuse duo smurfing till certain elo and after that MMR boosts them even if they maintain 50% WL

there is a reason most of challs dont have over 300 games.. because they know they would plummet

And just because ADC as an entire class is overpowerd

Doesnt mean that Sejuani Orianna rammus trynda (yes you would be surprised about trynda) arent overtuned

Even UP adc is overtuned compared to other lane champs

Pros are a step past challenger simply because of the mechanics that are required in team play that arent required in solo Q. All the roles still have their spot and are quite strong. Any role is capable of carrying. Its just that this is a late game meta where late game = favor hyper carry adcs. You can still go for an early game stomp where the ADC will not be at all relevant. In addition most of the people in challenger have thousands of games in ranked, or are smurfs of those already in challenger.

Any role is capable of carrying by snowballing adc and you have to hope your ADC has hands

I am ex challenger to

Are you literaly defending the state of Marskmen

And no most dont have 1000

Check stats yourself. End of season barely anyone has even 800

I checked the ladder for NA(maybe not for your shitty region of EUNE). And at least 40% is challengers with more than 1000 games. OR their smurfs

Are you literally attacking the state of marksmen, ADC is not broken, youre just bad at this game LUL

PoskeOct 9, 20171 votes

There is 1 adc per team sometimes 2 so your assumption is not good

Lots of challs already hold their Elo due to history

If you play Xayah / twitch / kalista / Kog / tristana you are probably challenger

80% of my games lately are decided by ADC

My question is why play ranked when you can't play support? Been hearing so many complaints about people getting auto-filled into support.

Never heard of the problem with adc.

PoskeOct 9, 20171 votes

What makes you think i cant play adc?

I dont want to play ADC though because I hate counting on supports

RexxieeOct 9, 20171 votes

Have you ever played adc?

Adcs are important yes, but adcs by themselfes dont have that much control over the game.

Your lane is dictated by how good is your support and jungler, + mid and top in the roaming/tp cases.

You dont start the game with 1~2 items, so you can lose games before you can even do anything because you got a autofilled support + a bad jungler.

Have you ever played adc?

I play this game since season 1. I peeked diamond1 most of seasons while this season I peeked chall. NO I never played ADC .. I have overk 10k games I mean go figure what the fk

Adcs are important yes, but adcs by themselfes dont have that much control over the game.

Define "that much" they should have 20% control of a game NOT the current % which feels like 80%

Your lane is dictated by how good is your support and jungler, + mid and top in the roaming/tp cases.

Which says alot doesnt it? Most efficient strategy atm IS snowballing the fk out of botlane to the point everything else fails into the drain. you either directly gank botlane or you gank other lanes so they can win their lane and help you gank botlane. And I am getting tired of it
