I've started playing a lot of ADC and I like that role but I've been wanting to main a ADC.. but its been hard to choose which one..??? I was thinking twitch, cait,jhin, vayne , draven. These are my list I like good Ad scaling early mid game I Don't LIKE LATE game ADCs its just too much a risk to go late game considering how assassins have gotten buffs this season Any tips or adc champion preference ? I'm low Elo so maybe that will help ;p

when you pick your masteries you can choose to go heavy dps or heal. decide that by going off your support. if your support heals and is more passive than agressive go heal masteries and farm it up. Vice versa if your support is someone aggressive go the damage route.

at the same time however you also need to have experience vs the comp your against. Jhin for example is strong af only if he isnt countered in lane vs matchups like blitzcrank.

all in all its a ton of little things. the main goal is to farm and wait for ur support to make a play

You don't like late game ADCs yet chose some of the strongest late game powerhouses out there?

And most people don't consider the Assassin updates flat buffs, except Rengar and maybe Kha'zix.

Caitlyn is one of the stronger ADCs due to her lane bullying power. Jhin and Draven are similar in this regard, but honestly I believe you should master ADCs as a role before you try Draven as a champion, if you get what I'm trying to say.

If you want mid game, Ezreal is pretty good. He also offers magic dmg which is real nice when your team doesnt understand how to build comps and go full ad

Learn to kite, learn to farm, learn to sidestep, practice attack move. learn to position yourself behind your allies, learn to time your flash against certain assassins(Zed, remember that trading doesn't always have to end in a kill, so if you're winning and there's no way you're catching them let them go and just keep farming to maximize your lead, always try to shove as soon as your laners vanish or back, remember to avoid initiating by yourself, don't wander by yourself without a lit jungle, hate yourself for not making perfect plays, coordinate with your support, focus on farming and always take notice of the number of enemies present on the map, remember to help ward, buy control wards when you have extra gold, buy cull if you have extra gold early in the game. Did I get everything?

Lucian is a good ADC pick who is both reliable in the early and mid game while being able to survive most match ups. He is versatile and deals a lot of damage with some utility.

My main ADCs are Jhin / Ashe / MF. Jinx is making a comeback for me too, I like lategame scaling ADCs a lot because high pressure situations are fun.

If you want to be good early / mid, why not give Lucian a try? He's a good duelist as well so he has a better chance if he's stuck off to a side against an assassin. Twitch isn't bad either, decent at all points on the game really.

Best tips I can give are to pick 3 ADCs and really learn them. Learn your matchups and build variations on them. If you specialize at first it makes it very easy to pick up others later on.

Always be checking the map, cannot stress that enough and you can apply that to any role. You're very fragile and if you're not paying attention any mid mage or assassin will just pop you if you miss their roam. Help your support keep that river warded, I see way too many ADC players ignore their trinkets regardless of skill level.

In teamfights hit what you can hit from a safe position. NEVER try to walk through the enemy frontline, it's not going to be worth it. Sometimes that means you're hitting a tank, but it's better to do that than die because you made a huge positioning error. You do zero damage while dead ( minus Kog / Karthus ). Stick near your support or any defensive champion and kite as much as possible.
