We've seen ADCs in every single role competetively in Season 6

its not broken its just that crit is so ass and we need to buy other items to compete with the dmg and mobility of every other champ

you "need to" buy armor pen items just like mages "need" rylais. its optimal, because it grants a large powerspike much sooner than crit itemization does. hence its abused so much.

that doesnt mean crit isnt effective enough, nor does it mean adc cant carry on crit itemization. in fact, you can stack larger amounts of crit and deal more damage on crit items than in previous seasons.

you also have more options to itemize into crit than you ever did, and phantom dancer is straight broken.

and considering how easily accessable last whisper is now, and how powerful fervors midgame impact is on pretty much every adc. even when building for crit, youll powerspike much sooner than you ever used to.

crit builds not being good enough is a load of shit.

Technically correct but also an exaggeration. top/mid ADCs were for a very short period of time after the marksman update overtuned many of them. MF support was picked as a counter and for a team comp. ADC jungle was again, a result of overtuned champions after the update spare a few more resilient ones like

So you are right, but also an asshole because ATM there is only 1, maybe 2 ADCs being picked on a team in LCS.

I wouldn't say that ADCs were picked in roles because they were overtuned, but mainly because they fit whatever role they were being played into. Like Graves as a jungler, he can kite the jungle creeps easy, Graves top has mobility, is resilient, and provides good AD damage, Corki mid provided mixed damage, roam potential, and DPS.

Can you really consider AP MF an ADC though? It's not being played as an ADC but as a support after all. Kindred and Graves are jungler, not seen at the bot lane. Varus is probably the only one who can be seen in two lane as an ADC competitively. Other ADC in mid lanes are most likely going to be AP. Quinn isn't exactly competitive in bot lane last I checked.

Other ADCs only see competitive plays at bot lane. And I don't consider Twitch jungle as competitive.

I don't see anyone talking about Kayle being competitive in 3 different roles (Top, middle and jungle). She's top 5 win rate in both Top and Jungle.

The only reason this is about ADC is because the bot lane role can only be filled competitively by a marksman due to its nature.

i dont know why people keep pretending certain adc arent adc.

kindrd and graves deal sustained damage from a distance. how are they not adc just because theyre jungling?

graves entire concept is retarded being practically a ranged, mobile, bursty, marksmanbruiser.

but there shouldnt be any question that kindred is an adc.

but it wasn't an ap Mf though, sure spellthiefs was bought, but after that it was full ad itemization, used tospread grievous wounds from onto the enemy and so they couldn't heal
