Botlane needs a nerf.

And the reason is because there are two people. When that lane loses, two people lose. And thats why i want to be those champs to count as 1.

To be clear, when i win my midlane 3/0, i dont want my garbage botlane to be 0/6 just because there are two players, but also 0/3. because there are two players that means that they they always lose twice as hard as everyone else can win.

So, you need to reduce the impact of a overly fed OR Trash botlane. however i have no clue what would be the best approach, but making them worth 150gold in the first 10 mins would be nice. that way other lanes have a chance of winning without being forced to roam always bot, or help that garbage botlane just because its too impactful when they lose.

But as a 3-0 midlaner, you can pretty much duel either the adc or the support solo because of your level advantage, let alone power of your pick.

So 1v1 you win against them in terms of "lane power", but if you're going in 2v1, some picks can STILL go head to head with a botlane duo.

The issue with bot is you dont have to solo lose or win your lane. The 0/3 zed and 0/1 kayn can still dive you and blow you up under your tower, especially with the support meta being what it is( Leona Rakan Pyke Blitzcrank Nautilus Thresh ). If riot buffed ADC's early resistances they would not be as vulnerable to these fiestas in the bot lane.

Then there's always the fact that a 5/0 adc can't do much on their own. They'll lose 99% of the time to a 1/2 assassin. And since none of the supports in the meta really focus on peel, just diving, they're kinda SOL in midgame fights.

What I'm hearing is: "I can't win 1v2 so therefore, the 2 should be as weak as one so I can actually 1v2!!!"

Which is a no, that's now how things should work. [sg-ahri-2]

Why? Mid is literally always with an advantage as long as you don't int through sheer level advantage.

If bot gets twice as many kills while should they not have twice as much gold from kills? It doesn't become easier just because there's two of them.

Yeah man! Why should 2/5ths of the team have 2/5ths of the agency? That's not fair!

I wouldn't say a direct nerf to bot as a role, I'd rather say a nerf to their impact so mid can viably roam top and not just roam camp bot(or open junglers to ganking mid lane and not just camping bot lane, top lane is an island so we don't talk about it). For supports if their early damage is taken away, they will truly feel like CC bots and nothing more, I don't think adc's should have high bsse ressistances either cause it removes the purpose ofc playing early game champions or more ressistant to Lethality items.
