At the moment AD carries with no 'easy' way to kite their enemies become less viable. Most popular high ELO picks appear to be Corki, Graves, Kog and Ashe. These champions have far more reliable ways of kiting their enemies than TF (which needs to select card, stop auto atacking chose the target and then use it) so their are better in team fights. TF has no escape, very short range and close to no mobility.

It's not just about the taste. The main difference between AP and AD Twisted Fate is the fact that AP brings specific features to the game that other AP carries don't, such as reliable ganking on top/bot lane and in jungle, when your allies need help. Solid pocking ability and decent AoE with utility. Ap Twisted Fate cannot be denied any farm in lane because Red Card + Wild Cards kill whole waves intantly. On the other hand the AD carry version is just inferior compared to other AD carries. It has technically no damage steroid, bad AD scaling (W requires you to stop AA so in fact you deal less damage when using this skills with AD carry TF) and poor team fighting capability. He may work, but there is a reason, why AD twisted fate is not to be seen above 2k ELO, while AP version is actually used in tournaments.
