Best ADC for an all AD team?

EndlessSorcerer·Jun 3, 2015·1 votes·1,845 views

I run into quite a few teams recently who don't realize that picking an all AD team against a team with 2+ tanks is generally a bad idea. I've been wondering which ADC would work best in this situation.

[I mean in general; obviously an ADC you play is better than one you don't.]

Percent health true damage, self-peel, mobility Percent health magic damage, poke, provides an AoE snare Deals a significant amount of magic damage, has armor reduction, escape Percent health magic damage, percent armor and MR reduction Durable, armor reduction, decent self-peel

Any thoughts?

If the 50% A.Pen. on her passive is brought to the main game, **Caitlyn **would be good. **Vayne **is always good. **Varus **isn't the best, but that doesn't mean he won't do well. **Corki **seems good for his passive and his E looks great for this situation, but it's not very useful if you're going to have trouble keeping enemies in the range of it (obviously). Kog'Maw... I don't think he has enough to offer for this. WIth Urgot, I don't see him being as useful as some of the others, but still pretty useful.

I'd say Caitlyn (soon), **Vayne **or Corki, but remember: all ADC's can build A.Pen. to still deal a substantial amount of damage.

They can all deal a substantial amount of damage; I'm mostly just looking for ADCs who can make up for the lack of CC, have a kit which can work around armor stacking, and/or who can survive with a lack of peel. All-AD teams (PUG, not coordinated) typically have a lack of CC for engage or peel, so ADCs who can survive without help seem like a good option.

My point is that no one will have "bad" damage. Sure, the enemy will build armour so you should have A.Pen., but that doesn't necessarily mean that an entire skill kit will be better than another just because it can ignore an enemy's armour. It may be more useful, but in the long run, it most likely won't win you the game.

The 50% armor pen on caits passive is only on pbe right now though

Your best two choices in that situation would be vayne and urgot. Vayne because she can do everything herself and urgot because of his mild tankiness and the fact that his armor shred allows all AD sources to deal extra AD damage.
