User blog:Tankteam/ADC Tierlist

As yet another season of League of Legends begins, yet another set of champions become strong according to the new environment of the game. Hopefully in this tierlist, we get to see who's fotm right now and who's generally bad when it comes to the ADCs of the game. My initial tierlist will be based on my personal opinions, but hopefully I could get back to this post with some people adding ot the discussion for a more comprehensive analysis. That said here's how I see the game, as of patch 5.1, from the ADC's PoV:

Tier 1: Corki, Graves, Ezreal

Tier 2: Caitlyn, Lucian, Vayne, Jinx, *possibly Tristana post-rework*

Tier 3: Kog'maw, Kalista, Tristana (pre-rework), Twitch

Tier 4: Ashe, Draven, Miss Fortune, Quinn, Varus, Urgot

The reasoning behind my personal opinion is what's currently needed in the ADC position, which are namely movement and raw damage output, sadly putting the more utility-based ADCs at a lower tier than the others. Aside from this, I also looked towards the most recent patch notes to see how each ADC has been progressing throughout the latter S4 and early S5.

Other (minor) sources of influence in my decisions are the most frequently banned/picked champs in competitive and challenger, and the most popular overall champions.
