Bruiser build on ADCs actually works perfectly

Okay,so i main adc,the main problem playing ADC in normal is that no one peels for you and you end up blown up by a 1/6 jarvan that does Q E R on you and you die.So i tried playing an ADC,Miss fortune to be exact with a more bruiser like build,i got a good early start,got IE as my first item rather quickly,followed by black cleaver,maw,and sterak's gage,didnt get to finish my last item but since i was going for that build i wanted to make frozen mallet just for the heck of it,to my surprise the build worked perfectly well,since my W gave me enough AS and my crits were around 700-800 cause i had around 300 dmg from this items,and the best part is i had around 2600 hp,no one would even focus me cause they knew they cant blow me up and didnt even bother,so my question is,why isnt this the standard recommended build atleast in normal queuee where going for the glass canon is so unrewarding since you die immediately if the enemy has a good assassin or you just make a slight positional mistake,i hope you'll try to answer this with an open mind instead of flaming just because the LCS pros dont use this build and you copy everything they do,thanks.

It's only good if your team is equal or ahead of the enemy. Bruiser adc has no comeback chance while regular adc build does.

There's all kinds of builds that work in certain situations that don't work otherwise.

If I'm playing Ashe and I'm doing poorly but my team is doing well, I'll go split pusher build. item 3085 item 1301 item 3087 first, skip over the IE completely, get item 3153 item 3072 instead, maybe get the IE last item instead. With the Runaan's and double lifesteal, you can't kill me if you're standing in your own minions. I just heal way too much back . My waveclear is so strong that I can push a lane as fast as I ran run. I keep feeding up until I finish BoRK, at which point someone will come to stop my split push and I'll kill them and heal back to full on the next wave. Then my team wins the 4v4 on the other side of the map and we kill two inhibitors.

That's a fairy tale scenario,the reality is this,you split push,and out of nowhere comes the lee sin Q,followed by his gap closer followed by E and R to insta kill you,and if you think this cant happen cause you're going to kite away or lifesteal back the instant kill combo,then we are playing a very different game

Bruiser items on ADC does work, but Black Cleaver on Miss Fortune has been a thing for as long as she's been around.
