Riot, this is fucking stupid. The ADC should not dictate the outcome of the game.

This ended in a loss. The game started, and our Draven hits us: 'btw this is my first time on draven. i wanted to play mf.' At this point, I knew there was a very strong chance we were going to lose. My team was up 13 kills prior to this screenshot, and I knew for a fact that it was going to be a loss.

As soon as the game starts, I snowball top and mid, and then spend the rest of the early game hovering at bottom to take pressure off of Draven. Who is retardedly bad. He's not trading, he's missing his axes, he was first blooded at level 2, and he has 19 CS while Miss Fortune is at 52 CS. He ended the game with half of Sona's damage.

No matter how much pressure I put on his lane, I cannot recover it, and we go on to lose the game as we can't push to end or contest objectives without a functional ADC.

The more I play Udyr, the more I realize just how fucked up this is. I can consistently get bottom lane fed, but it really doesn't matter, because half of the time my ADC is just extremely bad and can't do anything with the advantage.

This is fucking stupid, and so far nothing has been done to address this for the pre-season. When 4/5 players on your team outplay the enemy team and you still lose because of one player, there's a serious fucking problem.

Gotta say this hits the crux, as a Top player (Kayn,jayce,jax,vlad) I can smash my lane but for a while I couldn't figure out why I was loosing so much, then after a while I had the idea to look through my other teamates scores in my games and lo and behold when my adc lost (often only 2 kills different) or went even but ended up feeding the enemy more than me, we had a 80 something percent chance of a loss, so I started TP ganking and normal ganking bot (who cares about mid) and poof, my win rate went up and then stabilized. I am not amazingly good (highest rank was Silver promos in B1) but still it does at least feel like the only role the really matters post lane is adc, ardent didn't help this, but even before and after its the same, games are won or lost by the power and skill of the ADC.

Do you know what a self fulfilling prophecy is?
