Full AD teams have a disadvantage?

Is it me or do many players in ranked do not see the disadvantages of going full ad teams or go with an AP support. (annie,sona,zyra,lux morg)?

Personally i think that having a combination of AP and AD has a huge advantage. I think its essential for top/mid/jungle 1/3 of the roles should be AP. occasionally you maybe able to get away with an ap support. but for the most part i find that games are a loss with no AP because the opposing team just has to stack armor instead of having to build BOTH armor and magic res cost.

Are there actually any benefit of going full ad teams?

Early game pushing power is pretty good, but otherwise not really.

Additionally, if you go an AD jungle and have an AP top + mid, the other laners won't be building to counter you (and vice versa for an AP jungle and AD top + mid) which makes your ganks better. Overall, going full AD means you better win the game before their tank/bruiser gets some armor and health.

Only top and jungle go tanky. maybe tanky support. The enemy adc and mid are still going down

So in otherwords, there is no advantage to a full ad team. As far as i can see Top or Mid should almost always be 1 of the 2 AP or have an ap jungle and ap support.
