ADC in 2017 LUL

ignyte·Jan 2, 2017·3 votes·8,783 views

Meme's aside... does anyone else feel like playing ADC isnt fun anymore? Ok maybe not AS fun.

you can be playing your heart out, farming a storm, putting out the dmg. But if the enemy jungler is a tank, its all for nothing. Too many games have i seen a Rek'Sai just get out of control with literally Deadman's Plate and Cinderhulk. Same goes for Zac... Poppy...list goes on.

i cant be the only one that feels like ADC's are becoming more and more useless. If it wasnt for our Siege im pretty sure nobody would play a marksman.

Even greats like Doublelift and QTpie are contemplating their identities 's.

ADC can't do much if their team is losing coming out of laning. People are already ready to surrender before you get 3 items finished

adc is more fun rightnow if you are playing "Cait & Twitch"

I agree adc's are worthless to play, I fell like tanks (poppy, reksai, zac.....) is unkillable, but is still able to oneshot u. Riot should rework last whisper, and nerf Leblanc, ryze, shaco, poppy, rek sai, zac, rengar and nerf xp in jungle.

They are completely useless until they get 5-6 items in late game,but since they are useless until then the jungler can just stomp you and you won't even get there

Not to mention first turret gold being on your head and dragon being right next to your lane. That brings so much pressure there it's usually impossible to get to late game as an ADC. I feel like Riot should make ADC items cost a bit less or give bot turret it's armor back. This role has become pretty unfun to play. [zombie-nunu-bummed]

Honestly top and bot are the worst lanes to play right now since you get camped easily.Mid lane is pretty small so you can escape pretty often from ganks and jungle is the most fun to play role xd.

Honestly, i 100% completely agree with this. Though its fun attempting to "Anti-Adc in 2017" its not fun when youre a 37/10 twitch and lose to this 2/3 zed or 2/7 maokai. And this, is not an exageration. This legit happened in my past matches, normals, but it still counts.

totally agree..... as a adc main, I've been staying in plat in the past three years today I'm struggling in silver/gold no joke I even lost lots of game even i had a 7/0/0 good start a fed top laner/ jungler can easily one-shot you with their tanky build it's just so unfair!

Marksmen were fun to play before? Right click to win lol.

More seriously, they're late game champions; but riot has forcefully sped up the game to the point that there's no late game anymore, most every game is just an avalanche. Between all the bonus gold everywhere (except shutdowns), the 'hidden' power of the dragon buffs, the gutted towers; it's no surprise that entire teams run down bottom to crush it 5 minutes in.

Quite frankly, I enjoy playing a good adc match. I've carried more than a few games playing adc. Draven, Jinx, and Caitlyn are all viable hyper-carries imho and sometimes its nice to just roll into a Draven game and have the satisfaction of chucking axes at people. It IS a difficult role, but there are many things you can do to improve in the role AND carry games with it. I don't think its as obsolete as you think, even if it IS more difficult.

Assassins and tanks are the reasons ADCs are trash atm. Good thing they are helping Adcs with the GA change and price reductions on ie and bt

I feel like it's harder to play. With supports that don't know the role and assassins/tanks in every role, there's literally nothing you can do. When I'm under tower as Caitlyn, flash to avoid Vi Q, trap under me when she ults, use net to escape when trap procs, and yet she still kills me, you wonder what else you have to do to have ADC's not feel useless during the first 30 minutes of a game.
