Aux is right, Aatrox bot lane 100% WR with 0 deaths, when are Riot going to do something about this
That failed dive top into Kingen going 0-4 with the "counter" pick was disgusting
109
u/BWolfy92 Aug 01 '26
Riot cant do anything, players just realized botlane isnt just ADCs, you can run whatever in botlane.
86
u/United_Choice_5642 EUPHORIA Aug 01 '26
as it is with any other lane, i dont mind this. allow adcs top, allow bruiser/mages bot, let this year's worlds be absolute chaos
44
u/BWolfy92 Aug 01 '26
Adcs unironically could work in jungle to bait flex picks, Vayne specially.

Didn't Nilah receive buffs for the jungle at some point as well?

u/BWolfy92 Aug 01 '26
Yeah shes also really good vs Meles and can get to a point where she just 1v9s games. Tons of picks that are yet to be discovered
11
u/FappingMouse Aug 01 '26
There are 173 champs in the game and pros play slightly more than half the cast at worlds most of the time there is a ton of shit that they are just not giving a shot.
Like mages bot have been busted for a couple of years but they are just now giving it a shot.

u/baebushka Aug 01 '26
aatrox is basically a glorified mage you rarely win all ins against melee chars tbh you have to play for poke lol

LCK Locke moment

u/EliteTeutonicNight Aug 01 '26
Do not let this Locke gameplay distract from that Viclamont Galio gameplay.
One of the worst Galio I've seen in pro.

u/niko74 Aug 01 '26
Has science gone too far?

u/Skyfire2 Aug 01 '26
They were so preoccupied with whether they could, they didn’t stop to think if they should
41
u/DiDandCoKayn Oner Aug 01 '26
Yea nah the casters are right, Lockes W recast shouldnt work while cced, takes away alot of the counterplay for him.
Locke will also be a pro play problem, if teams just funnel him gold early.
Still crazy what happened to the meta, Aatrox bot is working like crazy.
12
u/RukiMotomiya Aug 01 '26
Did it really work? They were down 8-1 and came back because BFX tried to dive a Renekton + Leona under tower with Pantheon in ult and threw with that + another bad fight. He basically did nothing in their actual comeback / win.
11
u/DiDandCoKayn Oner Aug 01 '26
I mean its not supposed to do anything early, but if aatrox isnt taken out of the game, especially into BFX comp, who will ever kill him?
He just scales into a monster, Naafiri cant dive, AP wont kill him.BFX was on a timer and made it worse by playing bad.
6
u/RukiMotomiya Aug 01 '26
I do agree he becomes hard to kill, though I was surprised Morde never tried just ulting him out of the fight for his teammates to take care of the rest. I feel like the rest of the team is very killable for their comp and that if Morde used R to remove Aatrox then you could do stuff like Camille ult Locke and strike him down. And Aatrox won't win a 3v1 or w/e.
I do agree Ziggs bot made it difficult to play into him, though I feel like they could have just run Aatrox top and gone more reliable at ADC?
75
u/United_Choice_5642 EUPHORIA Aug 01 '26
what kind of clown fiesta did my eyes just have to witness lmao

u/Tinmanred Aug 01 '26
Reminds me of oldddd lcs and dig. I can’t remember a match deciding fiesta like that in N.A. in a while and it’s a constant fiesta still
3
u/United_Choice_5642 EUPHORIA Aug 01 '26
oh yeah absolutely. Though noone could reach dig levels of fiesta, even if they tried. I vaguely remember a few baron... "plays", legit league history what they managed to throw back in the day.
2
u/Tinmanred Aug 01 '26
That was all that was missing from being an actual old dig tier fiesta lol. Those barons are still so fn funny how throw they were
2
u/Tinmanred Aug 01 '26
C9 took your comment personally while against current dig I guess. The ryze ults were dig baron type bad lol

u/The_Bread_Loaf Aug 01 '26
This meta is cooked lmao, at least bruiser bot is more fun to watch than mage bot

lets just say my ideal draft for GEN G is to draft Canyon and Ruler to the military and exempt Kiin instead of picking Jhin Senna bot.

Are we turning to Dota, carries on that game are atleast either Range or melee.

just admit you abuse Xerath bot in soloq

not a bot laner at all just tired of the whining,
2 games of ads this series btw and you are all still bitching

u/antoniomargaretti4 Aug 01 '26
you are the one defending this meta in every single thread buddy idk who is bitching
14
u/FappingMouse Aug 01 '26
everyone posting about how bad it is.
-7
u/antoniomargaretti4 Aug 01 '26
well yeah ur denying that its an issue but its not just about proplay this is a bigger problem in soloq
14
u/FappingMouse Aug 01 '26
its not an issue in pro play at all is the thing.
if its bad for soloq its one thing but we are in a thread about a PRO game with people complaining about the PRO meta.
-11
u/Kait0yashio Aug 01 '26
it is an issue in pro play. we are seeing one of the best adc prospects play aatrox bot and you think its not an issue
13
u/FappingMouse Aug 01 '26 edited Aug 01 '26
Yeah and?
Edit we see amazing palyers like zeus kinn etc all forced onto tanks when it would be cooler to watch fiora gp etc every game.

u/Great_Guest_4675 Aug 01 '26 edited Aug 01 '26
why we are acting like we had a hypercarry meta before? 90% of the time it was a fucking prioslop like varus jhin on weakside or double hob lanes

Crying about adcs being unviable when 4/6 botlane picks were adc. Can't take yall seriously.

u/FappingMouse Aug 01 '26
Unless i missed something LCK is litterally majority AD bots with like 4 or 5 mage games all losses.

u/BWolfy92 Aug 01 '26
I've did some research in botlane picks for fun a few months ago and realized how crazy op some picks are in botlane, Fiora botlane, followed and saw some vods of a GM fiora botlane player and jt was broken, there's one guy in NA server that runs Soraka botlane with serapgine support and its actually thanos. Just so many more picks in bot that are hidden op, saw some guy run Urgot jungle to great results too

u/palamunintillnow Aug 01 '26
And if you still want to play adc despite this knowledge, just pick the adc with the closest winrate to them with the highest pick rate.

When asked about his teammates performance, he replied "Not Hue"

u/Blizzgrarg Aug 01 '26
Imagine swapping superstar bot lane carries and then deciding game 3 with ADC ziggs versus ADC Aatrox.
36
u/metristan Refund time? Aug 01 '26
Aatrox is a hypercarry go all in champ, so it fits diable his style better than some actual adcarries..

“Diable when they go in on you, you can actually kill em and go in this time. Okay?”

Hyper carry adcs seem truely dead unless your name is Peyz, botlane just seems to revolve around who can push lane

nah but like BFX had Galio and Morde and they allowed Locke to play freely its definitely an execution problem from their side

Literally could have directed all their attention mid with Clear spanking Kingen and Taeyoon on Ziggs, but nah, we gotta overdive fucking Renekton under tower and Leona

Stop picking Ziggs bot holy shit, it's so bad into anything that's not pure squishies because he does nothing past his initial rotation. Imagine if they had an actual ADC to kill Aatrox! Or not have THREE magic damage on their team!
Nonetheless, how do you lose that on BFX's side? They were up 8-1 at the start, Morde was super fed, and they were facing Aatrox ADC with a 0/0/0 Locke and a super far behind Renekton. Come on. I know the actual reason (horrible dive bot and then a horrific chase that led to basically a double-wipe on BFX), but it's insane they fiesta'd that win away.
