Will Twitch be getting any buffs or any significant changes over the next few patches? As much as I love the sneaky assassin, he's absolutely terrible, and it feels bad to play him. Because Twitch is a champion that has very few advantages until it comes to the teamfighting stage of late game, he absolutely lacks in this fast snowbally meta that we're currently in., and that feels bad. Twitch's passive is what helps to put out the most damage, with his E. Because Twitch has to auto someone for quite some time to get all his stacks, even with his W, it makes it very difficult for him to trade with efficiency. Is there any way to fix this by maybe making his Q apply stacks in some way, or even making the poison do a bit more damage to make it feel more useful?

He's got a 52% winrate. He's fine.

Twitch is still the Darius of bot lane, in that the more you let him AA you, the more and more you're already losing the trade

Learn to play him. He's actually one of the better ADCs right now.

I've played him, I've done well, I've been unable to carry. Even experimenting with a new build didn't work, even thought it was theoretically going to buff the mid game where team fights occur

I agree with the other guy, hes just a good as Jinx or vayne right now. The thing is the top tier adc's Caitlyn Corki Jhin Lucian are crowding out the adc's that actually have to kite Jinx Ashe MissFortune . Master your orb walking and positioning, and you will do good on him. I don't even main adc and Ive done decent with him a few times this season.

Like I said. You get good with him. Maybe its you. Explain how you think the current 4th best adc needs a buff?

Hardstuck G4Apr 21, 20161 votes

Fourth best? You're kidding right? He loses against Lucian KogMaw Caitlyn Jhin Kalista Corki . He's 7th best at the very most. Probably lower than that considering Sivir is a popular pick currently, and a good Ezreal would easily beat him

Go do some research. Champion.gg and lolking and leagueofgraphs. He is 4th or 5th best ADC. If you lose that often you suck with him sorry.

You're basing your argument on win rate? Oh my god, you're actually insane. Win rates aren't the only thing that matter. Prove to me that the stats are the best, okay? If you go 0/10/0 and win, it still counts as a win. If you go 12/3/1 and lose, it still counts as a loss. Win rate isn't a good enough stat to decide whether or not a champion is the best. Do you consider Malzahar the best mid laner because he has the highest win rate in Bronze?

Those aren't bronze winrates though. Those are plat+. Thus they actually mean something. What are you basing your argument on? your personal experience? Why should we take your word over data that has been collected? YOU are actually insane.

Twitch is fine right now. I've been playing him again and it's not so bad. The win rates (plus play rates) show he doing alright in plat+. From my own personal experience in plat, so long as I farm up and join team fights late game then I do well.

He's like the katarina of adcs. You have to pick the right time to go in.
