Why AD mid laners suffer in queue

Laura ß··3 votes·622 views

Im a midlaner that plays mostly AD assasins because they are my favorite and more fun to play, every queue its a nightmare because AD mid laners require a good team comp to be at their most effective unlike AP champions that work in every comp because you are guaranteed an AD source of damage (ADC)

Like any AD mid laner you need a source of AP damage coming from another player be it top,jungle or support (wich is the worst option). Well thats the trick, alot of people other than mid lane are not willing to play AP champions and its almost as you are obligated to play an AP champion because you play mid.

AP mid laners do not suffer this at all, in fact they can pick any of the many AP champions not taking any consideration to team comp because it realy doesnt matter much. If you are willing to play an AD midlaner you have to pray your top laner or jungle play an AP champion and it almost never happens, and who can blame them because for top and jungle most AP champions ment for that role suck ass or boring farm champions like swain and vladimir, there is no AP riven like champion that can make top laners play more AP

Hopefully riots plan to open up bot lane in mid season helps.

What are you trying to say ? Assassins and Team comp can't be together , assassins are assassins , you don't go in fights and start fights as you wish Assassins are the type who were meant to assassinate someone without letting him even notice you , like hiding in Bush and go with w e q aa Zed combo and 100-0 any squishy before the support even realize , Duskblade already lets you know if the bush is warded or not , if you are trying to start fights with assassins , well then sorry , you should play other role , you aren't playing assassins , while mages suck 1 vs 1 anyone , and they need many items to be useful and they are just a secondary supports in early , if you have a bad adc , a mage can't do much So at the end what I'm trying to say , don't play assassins if you care about team comp

He's talking about other lanes not being willing to play AP champs since Fizz, Kassadin and Leblanc who are assassins wouldn't fit into what he's talking about. Really do the adc being the only real major amount of ad damage needed on a team.
