Low range squishy AD carry.
People are bad enough with champs like cait with 650 auto range. Or ashe with 600. Imagine someone bad playing an AD that is even squishier with less range. Now add onto that a really bad build (say, zeal -> LW cause they can't farm and "enemy team is stacking armor!"). Now on top of it all give said champ a movement ability (tumble) that bad players use to move INTO the enemy team instead of using it to kite, as well as an ability to save any enemy with low health.


At least you see people getting LW cause "enemy team is stacking armor!" I have to keep nagging my AD carry allies to get LW when necessary instead of stuff like MBR. T.T


LW is worse damage than a 2nd PD on a lot of champs. And is always less than an IE (if you went BT first or TF>BT). The only plausible reason for pros buying it so often (besides silliness) is that it gives you a faster powerspike (cheaper).

IE>PD>LW is surprisingly non-ideal on a lot of AD Carries.


nope its exactly what you said, you build like that due to prices. You only go BT/PD/IE when your absurdly fed, otherwise you cant wait an extra 2k

For vayne, for example, no matter how much armor the enemies have, IE PD PD is more dps than IE PD LW. Literally, no matter how much armor they have, unless you're riding the AS cap, 2nd PD is more dps than an LW.

This used to be true for corki too, but I don't think so anymore now that his passive no longer does extra damage on a crit.

This is usually true on Kog as well for "Normal" ranges of MR (100-150), but weird amounts of MR can potentially change the math.

BT PD IE is kinda... eh. Don't like it - if you got the BT, you really need the LW and not the IE, plus it's nearly half the cost.

If you're looking at BT+IE+LW+PD as your final offensive lineup [and thus your name is not vayne or kog so LW makes sense], build the LW before the second "big sword"

This is saying nothing about when to build GA/QSS, of course.

Gold player says diamond player is wrong. Diamond player says gold player is wrong. Clearly the gold player is right and the diamond player got his account boosted or ebayed. Oh solo queue, what would I do without you.

You might think it's qq, but I think it's really funny. The disconnect between what some players think, and the ultimate decider that is elo is just massive.

By a lot you mean Vayne and Kog, and borderline Corki. For all the rest LW is in fact the ideal item to get, assuming the standard decision for the enemy to build armour.

On the other hand, what qualifiea you for "more" knowledge of this game to accuse Doublelift of often bein wrong about this game? He's not "just a diamond player" btw but one of te best in the scene

Also @fYrefly

Double pd is onl stronger if you assume to hit the third silver bolt proc everytime. Which is fairly hard against a heav. Cc team where you are bus kiting and 2 people like a skarner + Malph are diving you. i guess the additional MS from the second pd helps with that but there is a reason we have yet to see a proplayer ( DBL, cpt jack, rekkles e.g.) go double pd although I m fairly aure that they have all read the infamous Reign of Gaming article

TYped on phone

Edit: also never get a 2nd pd if you have nunu on your team which is a fairly standard lane for kog/vayne

To be honest I don't like these kinds of arguments. For example a diamond player, that exclusively plays adc might have a very poor understanding of how laning top works. Just because you're able to play with certain roles at a high level does not grant you universal knowledge of the game.
Also it's the nature of the internet that you can't take anything at face value. So while I understand where your frustration comes from, who is to say, that not both of you are playing at different accounts from your own. The diamond player might be gold and the gold diamond. No way to proove that to a complete strange in the 45 minutes or so of interaction that you will have.
In my opinion you should try to win with arguments not by citing authority. If the other person just ignores your arguments, stop wasting time.

Way to twist my words buddy, first you say Diamond players in general, which includes the countless solo q warriors i see on stream everyday and probably yourself, are often wrong and mention Doublelift in the same sentence. Call me fan boy but i know him for facechecking, farming and splitpushing but never heard him mention stupid knowledge bombs like claiming that amumu is a better early game jungler than lee singah or shit like that.

Personally I'd take a few grand monthly from streaming, being known for my superb raw mechanics and have my fans do the weekly highlight reel of "ma plays". Meanwhile theorycraft master double pd vayne is stuck in the 1500s while diving the enemy backline because his first hit was on the enemy soraka and he has to get that w proc to maximize his dmg output.

IE>PD>LW is surprisingly non-ideal on a lot of AD Carries.

Standing dps is not exactly indicative of what is 'ideal' on an ADC. after you hit a certain base aspeed where you can kite effectively with your attack animation, further investment into aspeed is not very valuable, since ADC's spend far more time kiting than they do just standing and attacking. Therefore, after that first PD, it's much more worth your while to itemize for per-hit dmg than it is for dps.

this also ignores the benefits that LW gives to physical damage abilities.

Your attack animation gets faster the faster your attack speed is so this isn't true. Vayne may not be able to use +%AS that much since she tumbles all the time.
I think in our modern age technology has evolved to become more addictive. The things that don't give us pleasure aren't used as much. Work was never meant to be fun, but doing it makes us happier in the long run.

There's something I've noticed in my games - I've not seen a successful vayne in almost 6 months now. Doesn't metter if on my team or the other team - the vaynes consistently fail in both ranked and normal. I've actually dodged once or twice when my last pick adc got vayne. It's not "the player sucks" thing usually either - I've repeatedly won bot lanes vs higher rated people who mainadc and picked vayne.

You aren't meant to lose vs a vayne in lane with most of the ADC picks these days at least. I guess in Solo Q it's all about laning though.

Well that and in competitive play teams often try to swap Vayne into a 2v1 or otherwise protect her development aggressively.

In solo queue you can't rely on your team to put that much weight on your development because they can't know how good you are.
