Alright, so I’ve been grinding League of Legends lately, and I wanted to share my experience with building an ADC tier list. You know, it’s something I’ve been tinkering with, and I finally feel like I’ve got something worth talking about.
Diving into Matches
First off, I jumped into a bunch of matches. I mean a ton of them. Solo queue, flex, even some normals just to get a feel for different matchups and how various ADCs performed. I played, like, all the time. Day in, day out, just grinding those games. I wanted to see firsthand which ADCs were crushing it and which ones were kinda falling behind.
Collecting Data
While I was playing, I started keeping track of stuff. I made notes of win rates, pick rates, and even ban rates for each ADC. It wasn’t super scientific, you know, just some rough data to help me get a better picture. I would always writing down things after the match, making comments. This part was boring, but I knew it had to be done. But it was worth it, because then I had some actual numbers to look at, not just my gut feeling.
Crunching the Numbers
After gathering all that data, I put it all into a spreadsheet. Yeah, I’m not a data scientist or anything, but it helped me organize my thoughts. I sorted the ADCs by different metrics, and patterns started to emerge. Some champs were clearly performing better than others. It was really interesting to see it all laid out like that.
Identifying the Top Performers
Based on my gameplay and the data, I started to see which ADCs were really shining. I noticed that some were consistently winning games and had high pick/ban rates. Those were the ones I slotted into the higher tiers. For example, Sivir – she’s like an AFK farm machine and can really carry late game if left unchecked. When I played her, it felt almost unfair to my opponents.
Considering Different Playstyles
But it wasn’t just about the numbers. I also thought about how different ADCs fit into various team comps and playstyles. Some are great for sieging, others for team fighting, and some are just lane bullies. I tried to account for that in my tier list, too. It’s not all about raw power, you know? It’s also about how well a champion fits into the current meta.
Finalizing the List
After a lot of tweaking and rethinking, I finally put together my ADC tier list for patch 14.21. It’s not perfect, and it’s definitely subjective, but I think it’s a pretty good representation of the current state of ADCs. It took a while to finalize, but I was pretty happy with the end result. It felt good to see all that work come together into something tangible.
Sharing with the Community
And that’s pretty much it. I figured I’d share my process and my tier list with you all. Maybe it’ll help some of you climb the ladder, or at least spark some interesting discussions. I just wanted to share my experience and see what others thought. After all, we’re all just trying to get better at the game, right?
- Keep in mind this is just my personal take, based on my own experience and data.
- Your mileage may vary, and that’s totally cool!
Hope you find it helpful!
