No matter how one loves, there are always different aims. Love can take a great many forms, whatever the era.

I feel part of the problem is they overnerfed caitlyn to the point she is by far the weakest adc

They probably wouldn't have had to do this if, like, *gestures at her kit*

Vayne and Twitch are both in my bullshit tier of ADCS, both abuse stealth and both are some of the strongest right now.

It's a consequence of lane bullies being, well, bullied out of botlane by various changes over the years. Even before preseason, DShield made picking Zyra/Brand/Vel a losing proposition the majority of the time, and especially when the Ardent meta came around. Nowadays, Draven's about the only viable ADC bully remaining, and the dual Relic meta means that most support bullies straight lose in lane and get outscaled. Only Brand's got a remotely healthy average winrate, and that's only because he does a ludicrous amount of percentile HP damage now.

Bot lane's been riding a knife's edge of balance for a long time, and it feels like Riot's constantly unable to find a happy medium. It seems like it's either goofy MF + Jhin lanes where the other side gets repeatedly ratfucked by harass, or it's an absolute sleeper of a farmfest where neither side wants to engage on the other because lane harass is useless.

I think trying to support the lethality items on ADCs is what upset the bottom lane ecosystem. It's hard to get lane bullies into the right spot when they have access to snowball items with easy build paths while other champs don't have a choice and need to farm out bigger items.

when serrated dirk was the best possible first buy for lethality adcs and also 200 gold cheaper than a BF sword and also significantly better than the bf sword and everyone was going "i dont understand what the problem is??? probably lethality is too good" that was some extremely good poo poo

A wide smile and perfect hair
He had complete control of the rising tides
And a medicine bag hanging at his side

In the flowing blue world of the death-dealing physician
Regardless of meta, as someone whose main ADCs are jhin mf and ezreal i generally consider marksman items to be Bullshit

If anyone needs just a couple of the champs from that season 8 bundle it looks like at least some of them are half off individually, I know I picked up Ezreal last night and I need to smash out my first win tonight so I can grab Vayne

Yeah, there's a big ol' sale of champs on. Important to note that it's not just half off RP, but half off BE as well.

Yeah I should have mentioned that, it's really nice

I might see if there's any other champs I want, I've got most of the good ADC champs so maybe I'll branch out so I can have a second role if I need it

you do not need a sight stone if you can 100-0 the jungle if he dares to show his head, just keep building needlessly large rod items and stay above the curve. if you ever buy a support item you will fall off and be useless
