The thing about adc

#

Is that its a really harsh and honest lane

#

It doesn’t actually matter who your support is kinda, to an extent, some games are obviously unwinnable

#

If you have mechanical ability

#

You will climb

#

If you don’t

#

It will be hard

#

It’s kinda easy that way

#

The only advice there is for an adc player is to limit test and learn how to farm, that’s it unfortunately or fortunately.

#

It’s actually a really easy role conceptually, but if you have hands the rest comes naturally

#

Genuinely I off role adc despite being and midlaner and perform just fine at diamond, but that’s because I have the mechanics to play things like Lucian mid, and I’m aware of how to deal damage in teamfights with it

#

Like, adc is one of the highest skill roles there is, but only by one vector

#

Your mechanical ability

#

Your farming can be soso, your knowledge of draft and jungle pathing can also be soso

Here me out, when I play with a premade support I almost every time win lane and carry games. But I find it near impossible to play with these random supports I keep on getting. Should I invest my time into another role to climb? since I cant always find a premade to play with

#

for reference I have approx 200 games on samira (my main) 62%wr and 11% penta ratio.

Whatever you find fun

the only champ I really have fun with is ornn. but I can't carry games with it 😦
I always have 7-8 cs/min with him and a decent kda but still cant carry as I believe he is more utility than a carry

#

if you have problems with adapting to your new support every game (which is basically the biggest challenge for both sides in solo q botlane: gaining synergy/reading the other teammates playstyle) just try to find more duo supports that fit to your playstyle naturally

#

so either add good random supports after a game or search for some in disc / forums

#

but if adc is your best role and you enjoy it i wouldn't consider swapping lane just because of that

I hit masters earlier this season as a senna support queueing with a rammus jungle

I'm G2 peak (G4 currently) but I play with diamond + in clash sometimes as ADC and do well

#

I feel like ADC is the only role that depends on another one, making it the hardest

#

(for instance a support with a bad adc can roam) but adc can't really do sht other than scale for hours

#

ADC role is very dependent on your support, so my advice is to only play ADC when you have a support duo online or else you are just coin flipping supports every game

#

if you are below masters, take advantage of DuoQ abusing if you want to win

noted. I appreciate your help

#

Some games you'll get godlike supports and other games you will have autofilled supports who have no idea of how to play the game

#

You just gotta try your best and hope that rito gifts you with ok teammates that won't feed
