The game is literally determined by how good your ADC player is.

Its literally not.

It's literally the primary DPS role. Without a decent one in this meta, your chances of winning are significantly lower.

So "significantly lower" = "game is literally determined" ?

Yep. A fed ADC is downright oppressive and can easily make up the difference between other lanes especially in this meta.

But... adc doesn't take skill, right? But it can't be both! Do we say ADC takes no skill so as to discredit those scumbag adc players, or do we say they literally decide the outcome of the game to justify every game we lose? Tough choice.

we're sorry the game is decided by how good your carry is.

The problem is riot thinks that only the bot lane adc is the carry of the team, and the rest of the team is either a support or a distraction.

I was using your response to imply that the OP has to rely on others to carry to win.

I do not.

That's interesting because every single one of my games has been determined by who has the better jungler

old news.... it has been since season 7... this is nothing new... if riot actaully got around to addressing the fucking issue... THAT would be something new.

I would say the same about almost every other position. If your jungler is bad and feeds, it is often game over. If your support is horrible then it is often game over. Mid can have a huge impact if they can get control of mid and roam. If your top is horrible.....well it matters who they are feeding and what champ they are vs, sometimes top doesn't really matter as long as they keep top busy and unable to roam and be a second ganker. In reality there is a reason that a whole champ ends up getting devoted to supporting one champ. That champ is important, but cannot do it alone where the other lanes can. Its been this way for a long time, and really its a strategic evolution of the game.

Depends on the game. This, as an example, I was able to recover and win this as the support with the mid. ** If what you said was true, Kalista would've rolled us over, but we ended up winning. **

While i do think the ADC role is a slight bit out of tune right now, it's nothing like your making it out to be.
