I started playing League a couple of weeks ago, and I've played about three hours a day, so I'm starting to feel comfortable in unranked PvP. I love ADC in bot lane. The champions I have currently are Varus, Sivir, Graves, and Teemo (for reasons). What are other good ADCs that would be fun/helpful to play? I'd also be willing to try different lanes (but I don't really like tanks or support that much). Thanks!

Jinx is fun and she is free this week so you can try her out.

I like running support for a good Kalista but I haven't tried playing her. Check her out and see what you think.

Try Ahri mid. I find she is played kinda like adc since she is ranged.

When you start LoL they run you as ADC to teach you the game so ADC is an easy role to fall into. The first role I tried after ADC was mid with Ahri it felt like a smooth transition. You need to have at least two roles just in case you primary is taken.

Have fun!

Don't think I really answered the question =) but those are my thoughts!

Kalista is not a good beginner ADC imo, she's kinda complicated and finicky. I don't main ADC, but I'd probably guess Caitlyn is a good beginner ADC? Someone with a bit better input should get involved.

I agree don't go with Kalista if you are still learning

Caitlyn is one of the easiest to learn CS with in my opinion, she is also a really good ADC to learn and practice how Attack Move/Stutter Stepping works, due to her long auto attack range.



For the mid lane try Annie, she is a fantastic first mid lane champion to learn the mid lane with, she has a Q that replenishes mana on last hitting, a stun mechanic that is easy to learn, and an ult that makes her good at roaming short distances, and so much more! She may not be top tier in the mid lane ATM, but she is good at teaching everything a mid laner needs to know.

I'm not an amazing ADC but for me my first I tried was Jinx, back before I was even level 30. She fit my play-style and was fun. However, the Marksmen(& Women) I played more to learn the basics were Tristana, Twitch, and Kalista.

Kalista is an adc who relies very much on her support doing damage, and with her Rend she can deals loads of damage. Tristana is more of an aggressive adc in that you have the ability to jump in and do damage (or die, in my case). Twitch is a perfect example of what an adc can do if unfocused; with ghostblade + ult you can basically melt teams.

Hope I could help.

I think Jinx is slightly bit more complex than Caitlyn due to most people not intuitively understanding how to use Jinx Q effectively.

Cait's skills are relatively more straightforward.

I honestly thought Jinx felt really wonky and awkward. I found her one of the more irritating ADCs to try to pick up. The only ADCs I don't suck total *** with are Quinn and Graves though, so ignore me.

She's a pretty staple pick though doesn't boast considerable power spikes as most other ADCs.
