What weapon should the next ADC use?

There are countless archers, a lot of gun users, a spear thrower, a crossbow rat, double noxian ax chuckarangs, rockets and missiles, and hadoukens. What weapon should the next marksman use?

I would like to see a ninja-like character who throws kunai. Or someone who throws sticky bombs that they choose when to detonate (though that probably wouldn't work too well on an ADC, got the idea from Bomb King in Paladins, basically smaller Overwatch made by the guys who did Smite)

This is why you are awesome.

That's more of a tanky assassin's weapon though.

You mean a medieval siege engine that could launch a 90 kilogram stone over 300 meters?

Good Idea.

And was used well into the 15th century, even after the introduction of gunpowder?

I like it.

Early cannons were very heavy, hard to move, and could blow up on their operators.

Trebuchet accuracy and range was actually one reason why they were so widely used, as they greatly surpassed catapults in both categories!

I concur.

PS. Pretty sure you meant "300 meters".

What would an ADC with a Trebuchet even look like??

it would probably be a set of goblin twins where both operate the trebuchet (lol, maybe a couple of yordles ^^ )

lol, it would be hilarious if they could fire one of themselves onto the enemy

A gun that shoots swords, to make building IE make more sense.

P.S. The swords also explode.

Icicle cannon Maybe a 550 range whip user Magic wand (more of an APC for bot lane) Hextech laser user Grenade thrower (low AS, but has AoE damage) Freljord Axe thrower

a whip user sounds pretty neat tbh

I vote for a piano. An ADC that throws pianos.

Thanks.

The next ADC should be a dark poet that uses his emotions as a weapon. He can shoot his feelings at people. Kappa.

Dice. The defining stat for ADCs is already RNGesus. Let's really double down on that concept!

It can have a kindred style ult that sends everyone back to base. "Table Flip".

OrangesilkDec 7, 20162 votes

Ooh, I'm seeing it: His neck obscured by his beard, his face obscured by his fedora, his fingers colored cheeto-orange, his legs invisible under his belly. Dylan throws dice, which may or may not do anything. He's a very hard ADC to pin down since he has an aura that repels champions, a friendly area if you will, a Friendzone.

Riven doesn't even dare unleash her full combo on him because, ew.

GoronMuncherVDec 7, 20163 votes

A real weapons master. He/she randomly alternates throwing swords, daggers, axes, pikes, spears, sickles, hammers, clubs, maces etc. Most of these weapons are awkwardly strapped everywhere over the character.

I had an idea for a laser ADC who had a "battery charge" which they had to work around, not unlike the ammunition of Graves and Jhin in its function. The idea is that they would be a tankbuster, and that based on their battery charge and target focus, their damage would increase. They'd also be a High Damage Low Mobility ADC ideally, with the whole idea being that the longer their beam hits a single target, the stronger the damage gets, however the nature of their AA type prevents things like Ruunaans, for example.

I'd probably go into more but #Lazyr

I was thinking that having an adc with two different weapons they had at the same time would be cool. For example, in one hand they could have a pistol and the other they could have a wip. They could have two separate AA ranges and I always thought it would be cool to have the adc have to use their wip to get into range to use the pistol.

in what universe does a whip outrange a pistol?
