What Champions did you try out in Botlane since the ADC Nerf?

Greetings everyone!

Even though ADCs got a **little **buff in the most recent patch, It's not a total revert of their initial nerf. It means that we still see some interesting Botlanes as of today. ( although it seems like people want to play regular ADC this days, or perhaps I just encountered some "regular ADC". )

I know a lot of people completly gave up on Marksmen. I personally think that the role is not dead, it's just that you have...unexpected matchups which can turn to be** difficult**.

( Looking at you, Yasuo ADC. )

Although I don't like the state of Marksmen, I think that it's cool to be able to pick something unusual without anyone calling it troll.

My premade and I have created what we call a "Cancer Botlane", since, really, it's disgusting.

They go Lux ADC and I go Zoe Support.

Do you already see how **painful **that is?

If some of you can't picture how hellish we make this Botlane, allow me to show you some clips.

Zoe : Sneaky, sneaky.... Kaisa : Haha, dodged that skillsh- WAIT WHAT Zoe : Calculated. Lux : Wait, here's more! Kaisa : LET ME MOVE THAT'S NOT F- Kaisa : dies Fiddlesticks : goes outside the bush Fiddlesticks : Wait, what happened?

Fiddlesticks : Let me suck that minion's HP... Zoe : SURPISE MOTHERF#CKER! Fiddlesticks : Wait wha- Lux : GET ROOTED NOW FOOL! Kaisa : BACK OFF MY SUPPORT! Fiddlesticks : dies to Lux E Zoe : Mission accomplished.

Kaisa : That's only a root, I think I'm ok. Zoe : MY E WAS ON COOLDOWN BUT NOW IT'S NOT, GET THE F#CK TO SLEEP Kaisa : OMG NOT THIS SH#T AGAIN Kaisa : summoner 4 Zoe : Thank you for the free flash! Kaisa : I'm not dying again, I'm not dying again, I'm not dying ag- Lux : uses Q Kaisa : dies

( I'd like to think that we made the Fiddle rage, that'd be hilarious. xD )


[ If you check my match history, you won't see any Zoe Lux game, and it's normal : we're playing on the PBE, since it's more** chill** there than on the main Server. It also seems like nobody questions your picks on the PBE, and we got some reactions when wanting to bring that duo on the Live Servers. ( even though it was only on Draft Pick, not Ranked. ) ]


Since we've encountered some really disgusting duo such as Morgana Lux, we've thought :_ "Hey, what not try something else? Have a little fun with the picks."_

And we do. Oh boy is this duo fun. The burst is ridiculous. I'll always play Jhin ADC, no matter how bad he is, but it's** refreshing** to play "off-meta" picks. ( though, isn't it meta, right now? xD )


Since this meta brings almost **any **Champion down in the Botlane, did you too, try something that wasn't ADC?

Did you try Vladimir ADC like a lot of LCS players did? ( Hi Doublelift :D ) Did you perhaps go Brand and turned Botlane into hellfire?

I'm curious about what you tried, since there's so many possibilities! [sg-kiko]

tbh i haven't played much.. but the most successful comp bot i've had was supporting a yas with raka. we actually ended the game in 14 minutes by just running it down bot.. their jg ended up leaving though so i guess it doesn't count.

Same thing as Zoe, Lux except it's Nidalee Morgana (i actually went nid AD first time we tried it)

spell shield and sustain as well as huge poke and morgs wave clear = a fucking OP ass kill lane..

I've been regularly doing a Heimer + Zyra (me) duo with a friend, and it usually dominates since the projectiles from both champions flying everywhere keeps bruiser ADCs far from their CS. Works pretty well in general anyway.

I absolutely love playing Urgot bot with a damage dealing cc support like a Brand or Zyra.

I've had great success with DrMundo

First item buy a Doran's Shield and pick up Second Wind along with Revitalize and the enemy ADC/obligatory poke support won't be able to do anything against you.

You can just poke them down with your Q.

Jhin, Jhin, Jhin, and... Jhin. Every "ADC" I've gone against I've kicked their ass. Yasuo? Check, saw that twice. Xerath? Check. Gnar? Check. I really don't understand.
