Does the current super tank meta mean every ADC should be building Blade of the Ruined King now?
Just curious about this. In a lot of games now there is usually at least one person on a team that has built super tanky, usually the jungler. The combination of their super high HP pools as well as armor makes it really difficult to take them down with a standard ADC build.
It seems like the best option in this scenario would be to build BotRK on every ADC now, but im not sure if that's right nor am I sure when to go about building it. From what ive seen, the only ADCs that typically build BotRK are assassin types such as Vayne/Twitch because it compliments their bursty style of damage.
The problem with the item is that it doesn't provide as much AD as IE nor as much AS as Shiv/PD, so it cant realistically replace either of those items in a build. Im concerned that if I get a BotRK on say, a Caitlyn, its going to set my damage back so much that id be entirely irrelevant in the mid game, but if I wait and build it later it will be too late. This also raises the question of whether its a better purchase than LW as a fourth/fifth item.
will give you the dps you need
or
if the tanks are cc heavy (only useful against the tanks, because lifesteal. If you're slowed by a carry, then...)
is a good dueling late-game item against tanks and can serve as a sub for GA.
. It'll even give you a little tankiness and the passive will make kiting easier.
either. It helps your DPS skyrocket into a fight.
