Those who still deny that Riot is biased towards AD.

Can they tell me why are the AD champs (Yasuo Zed LeeSin Darius Lucian Ezreal Jhin Graves Talon Kayn Pyke etc) much more popular than the AP champs? (Even with the ADC nerfs)

Because:

  • Not every AD champion is an ADC
  • Most AP champions are plain assassins or mages
  • AP champions are primarily played in 1-2 roles while AD champions are played in 4

AP played in less roles because they are outclassed by their AD counterparts.

Actually nah now you got a point there. Obviously assassins and bruisers are rampaging through the meta. You can't even play someone like Lissandra who would otherwise be good in the top lane and how every assassin is above mages as a whole in regards to winrate and play rate.

AP is played less because there is less AP options because AP isn't a common damage type. Having AP damage is an inherit advantage.
