Super biased opinion here: Ashe the best beginner ADC.

This is true. She'll teach you to never play ADC again, therefore easy elo.


Come on Ashe is not *THAT* bad.

She has a lot of challenges against her for sure, but it's not terribly hard to play her at an acceptable level.

I only play Genja Ashe. 3 dblade into muramana + BC, only acceptable build.

ashe is probably in my opinion the easiest ad. pretty much always a safe pick, with a pretty fast build up with her passive and has pretty good range. oh, and her ulti is something too...

What I mean is that I usually did better in lane with stuff like Ezreal, Graves, Sivir, etc. than Ashe, Kog, Cait (well I did 0K as Kog post-6 but that's because I spammed R >>).

Without transition, the current competitive meta got me thinking a bit.
I mean, I know it's heavily constricting on the off laner and support pool (mid less so but that's because only a tiny fraction is played regardless of meta ¬¬), however with the new dynamics created by the match-ups, timing of when the tower falls, lane swaps, etc. we start seeing different lane arrangements past the opening stages of the game, with the duo going mid to try and take that tower asap to open up the map, or the support roaming there when the AD can handle the offlaner alone, support+offlaner lanes against the AD+support one to let the offlaner get more farm if he needs that more than experience, etc.

I'm kind of liking it, it gives more variety to the situations, people have been criticising LoL for very long about the cemented positions of offlaner+AP mid+jungler+AD and support. If we could get to a state where offlaning isn't so much based around losing an early tower and freezing to avoid being zoned from farm and keep this variety around it'd be good.
Cant take LMS hipsters serious.

Lucian is way safer than ashe, easy to understand nukes, an "I fucked up" dash and an ult that lets you put out damage from a very safe distance.

Well I need to admit I have my own champ for soloqueue free elo ride if I'm given jungle.

Aatrox. So far only 2 loses out of 15 games, shit is goddamn solid. Decent ganks with knockups and slow + good damage, ganking 24/7 + stacking FF a bit, BOTRK, Randuins, Zephyr and there we go.

because in yolo queue its all about hard engage. people will fuck around, people will get caught. if you have good engage the other team will run scared and you get so many free kills you cant help but win the game. you can get to diamond soley on playing comps with tons of hard engage spells.

Because in yoloQ a 0/21 Ashe can still win the game with one single strong R.

She isn't but she is I think a good champion to learn ADC on. She has no complicated mechanics while also containing the core of "how to ADC" without leaving anything out. Her laning is also a lot stronger than people think, its much easier to do well on her in lane than it is as Caitlyn if you aren't familiar with the ADC role (or Cait's interactions in general)

I was smartcasting both but it seemed like latency was stopping me from Ward->W instantly, or maybe im just not fast enough yet idk


If you have crap latency then it will look bad on your screen and you have to kind of hope that it works. When I am in Chicago its much more consistent than in Florida.

I feel like Ashe is harder to learn ADC on because she's 100% reliant on positioning and is extremely unforgiving. Cait Ez Graves Lucian all far easier to position with and have escapes. I didn't feel like I knew how to ADC until I understood Caitlyn though, to be honest. Learning to farm perfectly while controlling a wave and slowly harassing and pushing down a tower in complete safety was a big deal for me.

It was just like "you mean... I can not die on adc just by choosing to?"

I would argue that "harder to be good on" and "better to learn on" are the same thing when the aspect that its harder to achieve is the core of the position.
