ADC life is rough

I'm prepared for the downvotes, but hear me out.

Just last game my support Naut was "roaming" for 8+ minutes, leaving me to try to farm as Draven against Blitz and Lucian (that's a hell of a lot of zoning). All it took was me to say "Hey naut, I need you here. Idk if roaming is the best idea when you leave me to Blitz and Lucian like this for so long, I can't farm".

Team: /all "fcking toxic Draven, raging at support"

Fam please, I need that peel/meatshield from you Naut ;n;

Tl;dr: Stop thinking that ADC's are always jerks and Supports are always saints. Anyone can be an arse and screw over teammates no matter the role

the truest of truths. what ends up happening though is with how the roles are set up there are going to be a lot more toxic adc players. I am not saying that supports are saints at all I know the feeling of a toxic support, but I also will say that the way that the role of ADC is set up makes it so that they are more likely to be an arse

I can agree with this. I find that there's a lot more pressure on the adc than on any role, and yet it's a spotlight, hard carry role. It's a high-risk, high-reward playstyle that requires overconfidence to play because underconfidence makes you too passive, which makes it hard to achieve their goal. This playstyle is, honestly, more fit for the douchebag personalities. The people that love the spotlight.

As to the op, just try to climb elo, and if your support leaves, play passive. As a plat friend told me, "In solo queue, never trust your teammates". With that in mind, don't play draven in solo queue. Instead, play cait, jinx, ez, lucian, corki, etc.

Thanks man lol, at least it wasn't a ranked game :3

I would never adc in ranked (it's my worst role) so I think I'll stick to jungle/mid. Draven is a lot of fun in norms though :3

lol yeah draven is a blast. he also somehow magically makes everyone who plays him sound like an asshole which might be why your team raged at you. CAUSE LOGIC SAYS ANYTHING SAID BY A DRAVEN PLAYER IS STRAIGHT FROM THE MOUTH OF TYLER1. I swear some players and their logic
