Stop treating ADC players like human beings post-whatever it is being done

I know it's too much to ask for but for the past few seasons the animals playing ADC were complaining about assassins and tanks and how awful the role felt to play. Well now that we've spent the entirety of pre-season and S8 catered to the ADC role, can we just agree the role should never be seen as anything but a supportive role and to completely ignore anything the animals playing this role say to prevent something like this happening again if Riot is really soon going to address the ADC problem

All people should be treated as people. Ignoring an entire group of people because they disagree with you is a serious problem, and one of the main reasons our world is so divided right now. We can't stand to listen to each other anymore, and can't stand the idea of the other side being right about anything.

Don't be part of the problem.

That doesn't mean they are not people. I'm not disagreeing about ADCs being a problem, they are a problem, but you're going about this in a way that is also a problem.

not really, the simple solution is if they bitch about how the role feels just ignore that shit the same way Darius mains lied through the skin of their teeth, got what they wanted, and HOIST BY THEIR OWN PETARD BECAUSE HE'S NOW FIFTH HIGHEST BANRATE AND CAN'T PLAY HIM

Don't post while angry. Isn't that a rule of the internet or something? Haven't read those rules in a while, but I'm pretty sure it's one of them.

The only way to get the whole picture is to take all sides into account. Dividing people further is a horrible idea, and would do more to ruin this game than it would do to fix it. Don't be part of the problem.

I'm an ADC main and we are people too, I should mention. But yeah some ADCs don't seem to wrap their heads around tank shred or how to position so you don't get blown up by assassins. We get hated on for being whiny and there are reasons that this is a stereotype. It's a shame being in low ELO and understanding my previously mentioned statement when you have ADCs in higher tiers who don't understand kiting it appears. Lack of mobility is inherent in many ADCs so you gotta understand that when you go into a game. If I'm playing an ADC against a bruiser like Olaf then I have to expect that I'm gonna need to kite to get a kill or even survive.

I agree that many ADCs need to understand how to deal with tanks (knowing it's our job to deal with them) and assassins. Positioning is key and you have to focus the closest, highest priority target you can WHILE BEING SAFE. Don't expect an ADC to target carries first, that's not their primary job. Top laners complain a lot about us and they need to understand how to deal with ADCs. We all have to understand our function in the game before we can legitimately point out the inherent issues of another position.

Ultimately, calling anyone who plays a role an animal won't be of any benefit to anyone and will only invalidate your arguments in regards to other players, and may possibly get you in trouble on these boards. If you don't like ADCs, just ult us with new Irelia and we can't auto for a few seconds.
