It's mostly for that same reason that ranged ADs build ASpd: They don't have to stand still for a second to get an attack off. As soon as you have an enemy chasing you, you typically won't get to attack at your maximum attack speed. | ||

Look at Ashe, who would be considered mediocre-bad except for Enchanted Crystal Arrow wins game singlehandedly. | ||

My problem? I want to eventually play ranked. Right now I can play 5 ranged AD carrys, 2-3 AP carrys, 2 supports, and I can do jungle Warwick. I hate playing tanks, I think it's the most frustrating and least rewarding role in the game. I don't mind playing Warwick, Irelia, or Mordekaiser as they aren't full tanks and they're really fun to play. I just hate initiating fights only to have my teammates sit back and watch as I die because I don't do any damage since I played a full tank and built fully tank. So, three main questions, should I do a lot more solo que before I try ranked out? I usually play with friends over vent, making communication easier and stuff but I've solo que'd plenty and we still get matched up with random people. Do I really need to be able to play a full tank or can I get away with Irelia, Morde, Warwick, and other tanky DPS champs? Finally, how many junglers should I learn? I can do Warwick fine, I don't really like Nunu, and I think Udyr is the dumbest champ ever created. So excluding those three how many should I really be able to play and which ones are pretty fun? | ||

You're doing something wrong. Tanks are defined by having good initiation skills, CC and last, but not least, having great base damages with so-so scaling on their skills. Amumu/Malphite/anything else but Shen and hell, even Shen deal amazing damage without any AP items. If you're not doing damage at all, you're doing something wrong with the champ. Besides, I wouldn't really flame your teammates for not following your initiations, more often than not, I don't follow bad initiations and follow good ones. Most bad tanks in soloQ just use their initiation skill on the enemy team as soon as they see an opening, completely disregarding the position of their own team and overall worthiness of the fight. Remember, when your team doesn't follow you, it's your fault. Communicate, ping and always look if the initiation is available for the rest of your team, not just you. | ||

Nothing beats tanks who are like OMFG FUCKING FOLLOW ME when you're the AD carry and watch that irelia/akali/fiddle WHATEVER setting up the perfect flank to buttrape your ass. Tank storms into them, diver storms into you, you die. OMFG NEWB ASHE.  | ||

This is true for some and to a certain extent, but some champions do have good startup times for their attacks even without aspd, and for most others you only need about 1.0 aspd for the animation to be such that you can easily animation cancel with it properly.

Tanks imo are useless in ranked, I don't get the "OMG NEED TANK" thing since below 2000 elo or so, no one has a clue on how to play a tank in the slightest and they end up just being a waste. Irelia and stuff are more than good enough, but if you at the start of the game say "I can botlane with ad carry or solo mid with AP" you normally will get that role. | ||

Dual queuing is fun (no experienced with ranked). 1 plays some Carry/Assassin. 2 plays Kayle or another Supporter. Farm a bit.. Then run around an slaughter everyone :D. Also the only way i seem to do decent with a Supporter when being Solo... Pick Kayle, wait until it's clear witch of your matse is worth your attention... Follow him and rape face :D. | ||
