Putting it out there: I hate ADCs

If it's not enough with year upon year with ADC-centered metas - there's always the occassional Vayne Vaynemain bitching about her team not protecting her so she can solo carry the game.

Then we have the famous ADC 2k17 meme which nearly made me unsub from Qtpie's channel. What's hilarious is that, even during this supposedly "weak period", ADCs were still mandatory in every possible team setup. So what really changed at that point? The answer to that is "nothing - nothing at all". They were simply slightly less overpowered than currently.

Then we of course have the Draven main who flames his team after getting killed while solo splitpushing with zero vision.

Come to think of it, I have observed more Kalista players say "I'm done" than any other champ in the entire game.

Let's not forget the ADC mains on these boards blaming item 3504 and Janna (thanks to which she is now getting gutted) for the current state of their class. The truth is: ADCs are fundamentally flawed. They have BPS (a large portion of them even have AoE BPS), waveclear, the highest damage to structures, sustain which they shouldn't have (thanks to items and masteries), hidden tankiness and the list goes on.

It wouldn't be too bad if building a comp around an ADC was just a tactic among others, but it is too bad when literally every viable comp is an ADC butt buddy comp made to kiss the ADC's ass so he or she can right click entire teams to death.

Well, it's what happens after these opinions have been supressed for years. Marksmen haven't been out of meta even once in the more recent years, and people are tired of it. There is no fun in having your items nerfed because an ADC is abusing them. Ya bet I'll make threads about it until the very day I can enter the rift FOR ONCE without a freaking marksman being present.

Marksman are a unique case, but just because they are present doesnt mean they are always OP. The adc 2k17 meme was made because back then you'd take zyra bot and solo the adc with ignite and a rotation. Or full tank hecarim bursting you with ult. Yea adc were present because of their unique objective taking abilities, but they were faaaar from power houses "OP" monsters.

The exaggeration and bending over people do to make adc as a whole sound OP is funny as hell, espacially everytime people call adc "drain tank" or "burst per second" News flash, if you build glass cannon, you gonna get bursted by a glass cannon like every other squishy (including those tanky adc lol)

Putting it out there: Not every adc is like that and maybe you should try to hate the player not the role
