Talk:Sivir/@comment-10636733-20130629143330

Sivir was the very first champion I actually liked playing when I first started playing League of Legends. I was trying bruiser and tank champions, but didn't like them. Then I found Sivir. She was quite fun. I played her mid and always did quite well for a noob. I had a lot of fun just pushing lanes (I couldn't kill effectively yet, so it felt good to do something useful). Then I bought Annie, which mad me love AP mids, and later pseudo-supports. Anyways, I picked Sivir up again recently and tried playing her as an ADC, the way she's meant to be played. I didn't do bad, but I din't do good either. There are ADCs I've done (slightly) better with. I know she's kind of based around movement speed and being able to get to or away from the opponent quickly, but I don't quite understand what she brings to the table in an actual game besides fast wave clear. That's the only thing that I can do with her, clear waves of minions fast (only when the lane has no enemy champions there; when they are, it's way hard), and that takes so much mana in early to mid game. She has a q skillshot that diminishes in power as it hits more enemies, a multi-target bouncing blade ability, a self-casting shield that requires good reflexes (in which I have none), and a mediocre ultimate that's kind of like a buffed-up Shurelya's (hope I spelled that right). I want to learn how to use her more effectively, because: 1. she was my first favorite champion, 2. I've seen people play her ADC (and even one Sivir mid) and carry harder than any other ADC besides most Draven players and the occassional Vayne, and 3. I need to learn how to do at least somewhat well in each role (top, mid, ADC, support, jungle) to be able to play the game better just in case I get stuck with last pick (I always try to be the first to say "mid," but if someone beats me, I wait until last). Does anyone have any explanation on how to play? I've tried several playstyles, but they don't work. Neither does anything I try Ashe (stupid hard-to-hit arrow), TF (even though I always get the right card),  or any other ADCs I've tried. I just want to learn how to play more effectively. This is a thing that has to do with personal playstyle, but I don't mind if you put your own mindset or item build or anything like that. I can always tweak it and fit my own personal preference.

If only there was an AP mid-like ADC...
