why is azubu still not even as good as own3d was? I try to watch BlisS every day and shit takes like 5 min to get rolling with a direct link.

In my eyes, based upon prior experience and the ADC's individual skill level, the only ones I feel that are worthy of discussion for the #1 ADC in NA are Piglet (former world champion who competed in the toughest league for 2 years and was always top 5 there, if not top 3 or top 1) and Sneaky (consistently improving over his 2 years in LCS, strongest ADC at Worlds this year, carried pretty hard at IEM and shows no signs of plateauing). WildTurtle's been known to slump, Altec doesn't have a long enough record, and Doublelift is too boom/bust with no real level of consistency.

I feel a bit bad for Azubu. They used their inside track by being a Korean company(at least this iteration of it) to get the Kespa players streaming on there and dumped a lot of money into it, but due to the language barrier it isn't even fun to watch the streams whenever I tune in. I just find myself alt tabbing and looking at reddit instead.

He was really good, he already proved that. The only thing we'll see is if he still gives a fuck or if he's moving to NA because you don't have to maintain the same level of ability to continue making $$$.


I can't see someone with as much pride as Piglet just slacking off and not caring.

In my eyes, the all NA ADCs are pretty similar in terms of skill. Why? Because in this current meta, ADCs have very little time to shine and are so reliant on their team.

During the laning phase, they are either 2v1 or 2v0 in a lane with zero pressure and their sole purpose is to deny farm from the enemy top lane by freezing or pushing the tower + harassing. The other scenario is a standard 2v2, which most people would argue is dictated by the support landing that crucial skillshot. Rarely do we see a ADC dominate another ADC in a standard lane unless a support makes a big play, most of the time we see 10-20 cs discrepancies which have little impact as the game drags on.

The real moment an ADC can prove his worth in my opinion, is how well he plays during teamfights. Most of these fights start around contesting the dragon objective, which again, is entirely dependent on team coordination and positioning and how well laners use the slight advantages they gained in lane. Frequently we see ADCs either rack up kill after kill or simply fall short and die to all the threats the enemy team has, setting the pace for the rest of the game. The next time they have an opportunity is usually when the enemy team makes a mistake like going for a risky baron/tower dive or turtle long enough to hit 6 items and win a teamfight then push to win.

Sneaky is a prime example of the type of ADC who is quite lax in the lane phase(unless Lemonnation gets a nice bind/hook/bubble off) but excels in teamfighting. With C9's team coordination and skirmish prowess, he is able to get fed off these early dragon fights and snowball the rest of the game. This I feel is something that all Double, Piglet, Altec, etc. are capable of doing, if only their team played like C9 does when they are on top of their game.

TLDR: -All ADCs can last hit and harass, what matters most is teamfighting and positioning
-if there were 10 C9's then every ADC would be the best, equally.



+ Show Spoiler +
completely disagree with your point that all adc's would be the same if they were in c9.
I hate this stupid argument people are making that an adc wouldn't be as good as they were if they were on a different team.
its the same type of argument idiots use to claim jordan isn't that great because he had hall of famers on his team with a hall of fame coach or that kobe got carried because he had phil jackson and shaq.

its understandable if you think doublelift or whoever CAN be better with a better team, but don't devalue other players' achievements because they have a good team. they are a part of the product and its backwards logic to assume that they aren't.

by your logic, adc's can never be praised. if he does well positioning in teamfights and such, its all thanks to his team. if he doesn't position well and dies, he sucks. its a lose lose situation.

did someone just compare piglet hype to doublelift LOL


and here people were worrying that the quality of this forum will go down if liquid becomes new sponsor for curse.
I don't think we have much to lose.

In no way am I downplaying or undermining the player's achievements just because their teams are good. My main point was ADCs have a hard time being in the limelight and getting recognition because in a role that is team-dependent in the early, mid, and late game.

From what I know is that piglet is putting in hours and hours. I wouldnt worry about his skill level but rather his ability to speak english and communicate not just ingame but also in the house.

Its important that he can voice his concerns or talk if he is unhappy

Izuna will be a fighter/assassin hybrid, capable of laying down a lot of single target burst damage while also sticking to targets easily.
Shaco rework in January. They are keeping with the murder clown theme.
Urf will be the next featured game mode, they are adding a few things, mostly changing items up for the mode to make them more OP and fun.
Next post after new year.

Yikes for Shaco rework and URF hype?

it's truly impressive how much he manages to die to buffs while jungling and remains never his fault.

In a reddit thread talking about Poacher's sucking somebody put out an idea of having it turn smite into a skillshot to try and steal dragons and barons with. That's not entirely a bad idea.

I wanna be optimistic about Piglet but as Wonderful once pointed out, Piglet was at his best when he practiced 16+ hours a day and I wonder if he will be able to play the same ammount in NA soloq and whether it will be as productive. And after what happened to Ryu, I'm starting to think that Koreans are actually human and can be outperformed by westerners. So as long as piglet is top3 adc in NA I'm gonna be ok with it.
Americans don't like to use unblockables, it is considered not honest. You press a button at the wrong time and hit the other person, you are random, not a top player. You DP Sim's far fierce, it is random and not honest.

The thing is, piglet doesn't need to be the best in NA for Curse to succeed. Curse is an already solid team, and they just got a guaranteed upgrade with piglet over Cop. I don't think Piglet is going to go around stomping NA, he'll probably play fairly average for top 3~4 ADC in NA LCS, and that's okay, because that's all Curse needs from him.
