ADC sucks major ballz atm cos u have 0 impact on the game pre-30mins unless you are playing Lucian or Draven or get hard carried by ur team.

Crit ADC's are still in a rly bad spot and these small tweaks in patch notes do nothing except make those champs OP once the real core issue which is CRIT ADC ITEMS ARE HOT STEAMING GARBAGE.

Stormrazor rush is only viable build on crit ADCs (arguments can be made for BotRK vs tank heavy team) Stormrazor as an item is kinda ok-ish now. Only major gripe is it's whole gimmick is BURST DMG which we have already seen is a massive issue in-game right now wherre the game has just turned into a arms-race to build as much dmg as possible as fast as possible to 1-shot anyone on the opposing team.

Then we hit the real issue -> ZEAL and ZEAL UPGRADES are COMPLETE TRASH right now.]

They simply don't provide enough BANG for your BUCK. Zeal items provide 2 things. DPS and MOVEMENT. 5% movespeed is completely useless when getting caught = dead and everyone and his uncle has a gap closer from 2 screens away.

Zeal items need to be buffed by either: a) REDUCING COST (hell reduce the crit to 25% if you really want so we dont overcap crit chance with 2x zeal items) or b) INCREASING MOVE SPEED or c) INCREASING DPS (atk spd?)

paying nearly 3k gold for 30% atk spd 30% crit atm is top kek. everyone else on the map is getting STRONGER off their 2nd item pickup, but crit ADCs are getting relatively WEAKER bcos their recipe items are SOOO BAD.

Next up: Infinity Edge. Again - NOT WORTH THE MONEY. Needs more BANG or reduced cost. As we love our late game power, moar bang seems the best option here. Hell a simple +5 or +10 AD would go a long way to reducing ADC woes in the short term without making them BROKEN OP (like everything else in the game that isn't a crit ADC).

Rest of the items - couldn't care less what you do with them.

I really don't understand why it is taking SO DAMN LONG to fix crit ADC's when they have been the weakest role in the game for at least a solid 6 months if not more.

:S :S :S

Rito plz

I stopped at "Stormrazor is the only viable build path" because it's true, that just kinda one of the main gripes at the moment.

IE needs to grant a minimum of Critical Chance (even if it's only 5%) and it will be fine.

IE's problem is that its passive effects are inactive until another item is bought, although there are a few champions that can critically strike without those items.

Great idea... let's buff one of the strongest most braindead roles in the game. If you don't get 1-shot mid/late, you end up more or less solo killing 4 of the 5 enemy in a teamfight while your team just cc and peel/chase to keep enemies locked down for you. But if a bruiser can do the same thing... they're broken bullshit? An adc can kill a midlane squishy in 4-5 aa's, but if an adc get's 1-shot combo'd by a burst mage or assassin because the adc positioned poorly, it's bs? Next to tank itemization, adc's have the cheapest itemization in the game, but their items are too expensive and weak? Their itemization scales harder than almost anyone else in the game. Adc mains on the boards are mostly very delusional from what I've seen and the complaints about adc's being weak right now only proves that. A sane adc? They'd be saying luc and ezreal are simply overpowered and need to be brought down to the power of mid-tier adc's right now. That's about where adc's SHOULD be at in terms of power... but ever since ardent meta Riot think's they're supposed to be the sole source of dps and carry potential in every match that doesn't end within 15 min.
