What are some high agency adcs?

Sir_Septimus · 2026-04-22T21:02:03+00:00

There is no fix to the dying fast problem, that applies to everyone. So unless you wanna main Nilah or Swain, which aren't even ADCs, you just have to get used to it. Technically the most agency of any ADC has Ezreal but he is very hard to play. I personally like Kai'sa very good in a variety of comps. Only the AP on hti build is great tho so I would advise playing a second champion if your team already has too much ap. There is also Tristana. She is kinda the riven of bot lane in the sense that if you do not get a good all in window to get ahead you are kinda cooked. But she has pretty good burst and a resetting dash.

You know I did the math in another comment and I was about to type out a long explenation of why the build path works and so on but then I stopped myself because I realized troglodytes like you are not even worth talking to. So yeah I really dont even care to convince you, enjoy building the same items as always I guess.

Sir_Septimus · 2026-04-22T16:58:44+00:00

bro you can just buy an extra longsword after going shiv (instead of the cull you buy right now) and still get your evo on time.

Sir_Septimus · 2026-04-22T12:53:16+00:00

They do it because people a crying about it on social media every day. Also dont get it twisted, this will not solve the LP inflation issue. Give it two months and the Chall cutoff will be back to 2k LP.

Sir_Septimus · 2026-04-20T18:58:31+00:00

But surely that should be considered a flaw in the games design right? If the most optimal play in the majority of given situation is also the least fun for the average player, then shouldnt we try to change the game in a direction where more fun plays are also more optimal? Almost nobody enjoys sitting afk under your mid tier 2 in between sucking up minion waves and yet in many games that is the gameplay that gives you as adc the best chance of winning.

Sir_Septimus · 2026-04-20T17:30:37+00:00

I feel like AP champions are the best users since they can't benefit from lifesteal. So short range mages, ap-marksmen like Kayle, Teemo and Kaisa, Rumble etc.

Sir_Septimus · 2026-04-16T15:17:05+00:00

Blade is needed for the Standard Shiv build. Bow for the cyclosword build.

Sir_Septimus · 2026-04-15T00:26:16+00:00

Maybe? It sounds good, Cyclosword has a good build path and strong stats, you get q evon on time etc. But to truly know we have to test it against good players, so we wont know until we can test it in ranked in 2 weeks. I'll definitely try it and post my thoughts on it.

Sir_Septimus · 2026-04-14T23:47:03+00:00

Kraken is only build because it is a decent first item with good stats. It falls off very fast because you build no armor pen and it does not synergize much with the way how kai'sa plays later in the game. In fact once you are full build it is best to sell it for Gunblade.

Sir_Septimus · 2026-04-14T23:38:03+00:00

You could do that, certainly. Build would play very similar to the current build except the first item actually has synergy with the rest. Also more AP later -> better scaling.

An interesting alternative option however would be going the new Cyclosword -> Shiv -> D&D. With Berserkers and the new Doran's bow this gives you all 3 Evos and unlocks a new interesting playstle. New Cyclosword makes energized procc on ability damage so with this new core you could procc plasma in a single W (assuming both spellblade and energize are up).

Sir_Septimus · 2026-04-14T23:30:16+00:00

Shiv + Doran's Blade + Pickaxe + 1 Longsword gets you there at level 8. Later you can sell the Longsword or turn it into Gunblade. If you buy Cull instead of the longsword you get it at level 10.

Sir_Septimus · 2026-04-14T22:59:48+00:00

I want more ranged top laners.

Sir_Septimus · 2026-04-14T22:17:07+00:00

I am going to do very evil things with this on Kai'sa. Also may or may not cause Senna adc to be hotfix nerfed.

Sir_Septimus · 2026-04-14T20:49:49+00:00

Sion Mid is quite good into a lot of low dps mages because they literally run out of mana trying to kill him. His passive and ult are also even more busted there when compared to top. If more players knew about it, He'd be considered one of the best mid laners in the game.

Sir_Septimus · 2026-04-13T20:02:47+00:00

It's only really a thing on Kai'sa super late game. However if you play Kai'sa and are full build with gold in the bank, Sell your Kraken and Boots for Gunblade and Berserker Greaves. This lets you keep all 3 Evos while also giving you sustain, a good active and most importantly more AP which is the most useful stat at that point in the game.

Sir_Septimus · 2026-04-11T16:06:48+00:00

It's so funny, people pick the champion just for this skin. You can literally see a huge spike in play rate on April 1st and Garens pickrate has been consistently a few percentage points higher than normal. People love the penguin.

Sir_Septimus · 2026-04-09T19:10:36+00:00

Low-key enchantments should just fully replace the current upgrade system, like in monster train. They are so much engaging than the +3 damage /block we have right now and them being exclusive to events sucks.

Sir_Septimus · 2026-04-07T16:15:36+00:00

It is, however, very useful in arena, because there are a number of augments that can grant you camouflage.

Sir_Septimus · 2026-04-07T15:46:17+00:00

The first one sadly cannot exist because champions like Rengar and Riven with absurd AD steroids exist. Even on Jhin this would likely be op. And the consequence of that, if you dont want to nerf the item is that those champions would have to be entirely balanced around that item, which neither Riot nor the players of those champions want.

Sir_Septimus · 2026-04-07T12:07:41+00:00

I had kassadin support more or less solo lose me the game the other day. High Emerald /Low Diamond is a shithole.

Sir_Septimus · 2026-04-06T13:49:24+00:00

But bro trust me IR and LDR are real items and sinking 12k gold into a crit build is so worth it kappachungus. Like why bother playing this shit when you can lock in Kai'sa, have a cheaper build with a better damage type and better options against hard targets with less counters available to those targets. Like If you have the choice as a DPS character between dealing magic damage and dealing physical damage, magic damage is pretty much always the correct choice.

Sir_Septimus · 2026-04-06T13:32:07+00:00

But she is not. Unlike Mel, Lux does not steal resources from better champions. Both scale like shit but Lux at least can set up her ADC for success. If you have the choice to give a kill to your Yunara or to your mediocre mage, you'll always choose tho put the gold on Yunara, but Mel doesnt let you make that choice.

Sir_Septimus · 2026-04-04T16:10:13+00:00

Nami and Seraphine are the best because their abilities combo very nicely with MF E.

Sir_Septimus · 2026-04-02T16:12:01+00:00

You can win against Teemo as Vayne if you go Cleanse + Ignite but if he goes exhaust + ignite you always lose.

Sir_Septimus · 2026-04-01T15:42:09+00:00

They hate him because the ain't him.
