Only point and click delete I see there would be AP trist.

Akali Annie Chogath Katarina Leblanc Malzahar Poppy Rengar Syndra Veigar <<< those are real point and click delete champs.

who needs a stun when you have a 1300 damage + 80% of target AP nuke that's point and click? If the enemy AP champ even get's remotely close to you, you can just press R and eliminate them from the game completely.

I'd like to disagree with the Ezreal . As an Ez main, it's point, click, and hope that the opponent doesn't dodge everything (I'm looking at you Fizz). Please Riot, give Ez some sort of CC so it can be just point and click.

Every champion has autoattack and therefore equal right to build more this OP point and click damage.

I think it's a little more complicated than you are making it out to be.

"Point and Click Delete" refers to like one or a few abilities that you use to blow up someone in less than seconds. The following you just listed are sustained damage dealers that give time to react. All of those are also incredibly squishy and targeted in the majority of team fights. Some even have incredibly low mobility.

his point is still valid. ranged ad are designed around the idea to delete someone with crits.

if you removed crits as a factor, then fine. but every ranged ad builds it to blow up squishies and deal massive damage to everyone else from range.

You should add Teemo, Kayle, Yi, and Trynd to that list

but anyway, when people talk about point-and-click delete being OP they mean it in reference to like, Old Veigar where he walks up to you, presses QR and you instantly die. As annoying as rADC autoattacks can be and while they are point and click, they simply aren't the same. People like to exaggerate how adcs kill you by hitting you twice for 1000 in less than one second, but thats completely untrue. In a typical lategame build, most carries are going to have a little over 300 AD, 50% crit, and ~1.8 AS. Meaning that they aren't hitting for 1000 twice a second, they are hitting for 300 or 750 a little less than twice a second. Add on to this armor, which is very easy for everyone but an rADC to include in their build, and the rADC isn't hitting for nearly as much damage, or nearly as fast, as an Annie or Old Veigar burst combo.

(The "little over 300 AD figure is a little misleading, since ADC builds typically divide into ones that prioritize raw AD like Ezreal and Graves and ones that really like AS and Crit like Ashe and Twitch. Generally the AD-focused ones will have a figure closer to 400 AD because they would choose BT over Bork and Tri over PD, but these champions also generally have much weaker steroids)

I'd say Corki needs to aim things to do well.

The funniest thing is listening to everyone complain about some champs being "point-and-click-delete" and others being "face-roll" and then try to tell me this game requires mechanical skill.

If one can even consider that those terms among others exist as accurate descriptors for some champs, you cannot convince me that this game is actually hard. You have bigger stats and you auto win. No skill about it will change that fact.
