The best pre-s5 ADC right now?

Up until now, I've mastered pretty much all lanes except ADC. Looking to get into it, what are some really good champs?

Corki is pretty much the king right now

If you played mid lane a lot, Ezreal would be a good pickup. While he does not have the damage of other ads, you CAN go blue build with him (item 3158 item 3025 item 3153 item 3035 as a core build, and either one or both of item 3043 item 3508 )

Blue Ez is nice, because he can be played as an AD caster, and you have a really low CD dash when you are in a dumb spot.

Hi, I'm a diamond 3 ADC main and I can tell you that there is no #1/Best adc right now because the current meta favors securing dragons among other objectives which requires teamwork. Corki, Lucian, Ezreal, and Graves are solid adcs right now because they have strong early-mid game burst dmg which is great for contesting dragons and tower sieging. If you're looking for adcs with good scaling, caitlyn, kog'maw, and jinx are solid picks. Draven is also a decent pick because he has very high snowball potential (from his passive) but you'd have to be good at managing spinning axes to pull him off well. Twitch requires good positioning and properly usage of your ult to pull off. I did not mention any other adc because they require more skill to play well and if you're looking for easier champions, i reccomend the adcs i mentioned above.

Graves = high burst/shite range Caitlyn = good poke and range/meh escape Corki = shite range/good escape

The top 5 in win rate at the moment from highest to lowest are: Jinx, Sivir, Graves, Miss Fortune, and Ashe. Corki is in 7th place after Draven.

Nobody likes Jinx ? She's strong!

ATM Corki , Lucian, Ezreal, Graves, Vayne , Caitlyn are all 'in the meta' Jinx isn't favored because 5/6 of the ADC's that I JUST listed 1) outscale her 2) make her useless due to no farm

I like Corki. Because a. He deals 3 types of dmg (true, magic, physical), mostly magic and physical like wtf what ADC deals (that much) magic damage LOL b. Pretty good escape c. Good siege because good poke d. Has two abilities that grant vision/lets you know enemy is in brush (Q, R) e. Double buff makes him seriously strong af: can spam abilities to proc sheen and also, red synergies with his passive

Lots of good champ selections given above this post. What I would recommend doing, especially if you don't own any of them would be to play a free week rotation of them; see who synergizes with your play style best. (You'll eventually want to get them all so you have counter play potential, but first, need to work on the role).

I know people that pick up ADC and carry from first time, and people that (like me) are so used to magi that they oom themselves for a long time poking with abilities instead of autos. For some, it does require a retraining of thought process to ADC.

I would also recommend duelling with a friend and 2 others, just to simulate the lane environment. It'll help you get more used to the differences in adc roles.

Also! I mod for a pair of Diamond's that do free coaching weekly; Might be worth stopping by and saying hi. They can sure help you.
