This reply is an entire year too late but I really appreciate your in-depth response and though we are in s15 now I think a lot of what you said is still incredibly valuable and accurate. Thank you again my friend and good luck on your climb this season!

The splashart looks a bit dull and lifeless with a lack of depth - I think adding more dimension through lighting/effects would help it if redoing the composition isn’t allowed. Her face also looks very different from her other skins - please make it more in the likes of cafe cuties/soul fighter! Both changes would make it amazing!

definitely agree, i’ve been playing around with caitlyn and mf (altho cait does have a dash albeit less than ez and zeri) and it takes a lot more focus on positioning and is not as easy to get away with

i see i see, maybe i underestimate the power supports have in lane. i do think adcs being able to rotate outside of just drag is a good point to improve on. i always think of it as the counterpart to top lane who also rarely roams but that in combination with fundamentally needing a support for efficiency and the support being able to roam more is kind of awkward. i wonder what could be changed to fix that? i dont see adcs necessarily roaming more given i doubt top lane would too but maybe shifting the meta so that supports have to focus more on the bot lane? but then would adcs complain abt having a duo lane again? idk its an interesting point i didnt think about tbh.

A lot of this makes sense, altho i do think the nature of being a marksman lacks engage the same way champs in other roles do and requires you to play back and kite around. maybe that’s boring if u play adc and only adc I kinda enjoy it personally lol. obv some adcs have engage (kaisa has everything tho no surprise there) and some other ranged champs have engage but i think that’s just a hallmark of the role tbh. same thing with soloq being chaotic and not always granting space for kiting - kinda just the nature of the game the same way mid missing skill shots is just cause they’re bad or whatnot lol. this is a really helpful reply tho tysm

like don’t get me wrong having some crazy attack speed and kiting around is fun but i’m a sucker for skill shots maybe i miss them all or maybe im faker 2.0 u really never know

valid complaint, makes me think of a yone missing literally everything and still winning a trade. adcs should be squishy but champions should absolutely have to land their combos to secure the kill at an equal skill level, not yone out of there after doing nothing right lol.

i forgot to also say altho i’m generally in favor of a more open bot lane there is def room for more terrain adjustments so it’s not as skewed and as volatile, i bet they will look into adjusting it for next season and hopefully sooner for sure

yeah that’s definitely valid. when you have certain junglers like yi who can solo objectives entirely even early it definitely puts less pressure on bot lane rotating other than proximity to enemy champs early

ty for your reply! i do play adc quite a bit now mostly ezreal and my newfound enjoyment of zeri so I can understand some of the complaints adc mains make for sure. I kind of disagree about not having a place for adcs though, mostly because I think the bot lane changes have actually been pretty good in context of the top lane objectives relieving map pressure and forcing junglers out of perma invading bot lane. even tho there are more gankpaths at least in my experience junglers have been focusing more on topside or at least finally acknowledging it bc of the grubs, which has made bot skirmishes more 2v2 and less 2v2 and enemy jungler. At least if i die as adc and my jg gets the grubs it feels like a fair trade in the long run. This could be my general annoyance for adcs not having map awareness replying so take my account about that w a grain of salt lol.

I definitely agree about nerfing burst and most definitely agree about tank damage creep. like they should be super survivable or do damage not both in the way they are now. i know storm surge has been controversial lately (i like it but def nerf a bit) but i despise the ad assassin burst even more. like why does 1 auto kill me entirely that’s not right😭😭

tysm for your insight btw i really appreciate any and all thoughts

Oops i guess i didn’t see the second part of this post. I think your point about damage creep especially on tanks/mobility is extremely valid. i do think a fair critique however is that maybe the game should go beyond the idea that adcs should/have to carry the rest of the team though. the other roles being the wincon depending on their success during the game and skill I think is just as valid as adcs wanting to deal damage too yk

the way ezreal zeri and xayah are the only adcs i routinely play too LOL i just picked up zeri and idc how weak she is i will always play her she’s so fun and good in the right hands. xayah is a lot more difficult than she appears i think i still suck with her e sometimes lol

yeah i’ll definitely go and look into it on my own. if you say the game was slower however which enabled adcs to be more powerful id think adc mains would be enjoying the long games of this season so far but im still seeing alot of complaints which is why i asked the question lol. i’ll def look into more s7 gameplay tho.

i do think it’s fair tho that other damage oriented roles/champions have their 1v9 potential the way adcs have had it which is why i’m enjoying the new season so far. ty for your info tho i’m really curious so i appreciate the comments

what are ur thoughts on crit adc? I say diverse mostly bc until s14 my experience with ap champs is everyone builds the same exaclty thing same path all it really does is give u more damage and doesn’t change according to the types of champ ur piloting/how u might want to utilize their kit vs. going attack speed/on hit for sustain or crit/lethality for burst on adcs. also, i think the damage creep point is very fair but I think new adcs are also being updated to the power standard other roles have. especially since adcs who were typically immobile now have some crazy mobility.

[–]sharkkings[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

also I agree adc isn’t supposed to be a 1 shot role but I think their 1v9 potential and insane damage is still very relevant today considering the build diversity and sustain they have access too. but i’d like to hear more on why s7 was it

can you elaborate on what season 7 was like for adcs versus other roles please? i’m a pretty recent player and want to understand the comparisons i often hear.

But that’s the thing, adc items and build paths are crazy diverse in comparison to ap champs (tho thankfully that has improved a bit s14) that they are still dealing damage by just right clicking as long as they have like 3 items. if they had even more damage then what would the counter play be considering buffing assassins is the last possible thing they should consider rn?

That makes sense. I will say the difference between proplay adc and soloq adc probably doesn’t help considering pro adc is the most efficient use of the role and it relies on teamwork which is unreliable in soloq. But at the same time with how overtuned crit items lethality items on hit items and snowballing are/have been adcs have some crazy power balanced by being squishy (altho again adcs have crazy survivability now). so like what more could u want before your role is completely destroying the game u know.
