ADC mains: Can we get some more control over our lane without 100% relying on the performance of our supports? Riot: yeah, you can go f*%$ yourself. Here's Seasons 8 and 9. ADC mains: Oh, ok.

So wait, ADCs want to be hand held through the lane by another player while also wanting to be allowed to carry without having to worry about anyone.

Not entitled though.

ADCs should at least feel like they have control over 20% of their games. It's more like 10% because games end before they're relevant if the support doesn't do their job.

what tank is being tanky while doing damage?

That was their statement when they announced Season 8 and making changes.

Then play a solo lane?

Sorry but what? What tank is currently doing damage while being tanky? Or are you saying that when they said that increasing a tanks damage improves their soloq more than their pro play? Because that is a true statement, just like base stats matter more in soloq than in pro play.

Sejuani I guess? Maybe Mord, if you count shield-sustaining as tanking. I'm grasping at straws here.

I mean, I placed 3rd overall damage(30.4k, only about 1k behind 2nd place) one game while playing full tank Ornn. I feel like I shouldn't be able to do that under any circumstances.

I actually find myself carrying more when I build full tank on tank champions.

damage isnt always relevant damage. Keep that in mind.

Also, Ornn is naturally going to deal more damage simply due to his main form of damage, the Brittle procs, dealing %Max HP damage.
