"ADCs are weak"

Miraweave·Sep 8, 2015·6 votes·366 views

Kalista is nearly 100% pick/ban in competitive, Vayne is in like every soloq game, and ADCs as a whole are the only class of champion that is absolutely mandatory in every game and have been since season one.

Sometimes the meta changes and tanks vanish. Sometimes the entire mage class ceases to exist. Sometimes assassins are useless. Sometimes every real support gets overshadowed by a little girl with her bear.

AD Carries are literally the only class in the game that has never had a period where they weren't being picked. They are not weak. Shut up.

EDIT: Lol downvotes from idiots who think that their class should be able to solo everything all the time.

yeah, one or two champions picked in the entire class makes them not weak. Not like if you want to choose anything besides the top 2~3 ADC you are literally handicapping not only yourself but your team. Maybe the class itself is not "weak" but that doesn't mean that the champions in said class aren't

A few immobile adcs are weak, to be sure. A few champions in every class are weak.

The class overall still defines the game more than any other.

every single class defines the game, ADCs are not as strong as you think they are. They might not be as weak as a whole as people seem to think they are but they are far from being strong

They are strong though.

other than Vayne Kalista Tristana which other ADC are "strong" the rest are situational picks at best

Draven is a feast or famine champion, he can be either really good or just there.

There is no reason to pick Jinx over Tristana since they offer the same things but one is safer than the other

Sivir is dead, she WAS good but now? why would you pick her? waveclear?

Graves is ok at best and so is Ashe (unless the team is picked around her or the enemy teamcomp is bad)

Ashe, Jinx, Vayne, Sivir, Tristana, Draven, Corki, Varus apparently (dat win rate), Kalista, and Mordekaiser (kek) are strong picks in either solo Q or competitive, sometimes both.

No but yeah man it's only two ADCs that make the entire class not suck, lololol.

Though Varus is more of a midlaner. But yes, every ADC you just listed is very strong. The only ones who are actually weak are Lucian and MF.

Varus as an ADC alone has a win rate of 52.18%, which is the highest I've ever seen it, and is the only reason I've included him. Maybe the three people who are playing him are having good games, or maybe the meta just favors him, idk.

Varus' win rate has gone up because people have realized he's a strong Vayne counter-pick.

Huh. Interesting.

The class of Marksman is weak as a whole.... Just think about what adc's you see, and how many times they get shit on... Most likely, you will think of Vayne, Jinx, and Kalista... shitting on every one else cause they are the most op right now due to their insane DPS and ability to bitch slap tanks. Diversity is almost completely dead in league, I was amazed at how many people quit playing league for the season, due to Riot ruining what was once and could still be a great game.

It's not weak as a whole. The reason you mainly see those three is because all three of those champions are ludicrously overpowered.

SymbolicFearSep 8, 20151 votes

Those three are overpowered, so obviously they are better than the other marksmen, and they beat other marksman, meaning that over all, the role of marksman is limited to three champs unless you choose a weak marksman.
