[25.13] Low Elo Tank Killer vs Mundo, Wukong, Tahm Kench, Pantheon etc

By Moosicel
What to do against a Tank Team Composition
Hello fellow ADCs. We all know how great a game of League can be in those perma Iron fight, fight, fight situations, if we are allowed to play Jinx, Miss Fortune, Jhin, Caitlyn. We build the Crit Items, play safe, farm well, get dragons, and, if our Support is not 0/10 or the enemy Sett, Katarina, Yasuo, Master Yi, Viego, Naafiri, Wukong, Trundle do not have 40 kills in 30 minutes, we can play a game and carry.

But what happens, when the enemy team picks a second Toplane champion in the Jungle and a crazy tank in the support role? For example Yorick/ Tryndamere Top Lane and a Jax, Wukong in Jungle and a Leona/ Rell as a Support? You can not do any damage until you get Lord Dominik's Regards. At that point, you will be behind in CS, in Dragons, in Turrets and the game feels unwinnable and unfair. Even if you are something like a 4/2 Tristana or Jinx, S Tier ADC champions, that won the Lane, you still have no impact on the end result of the game.

I guess, most beginner ADCs, just like me, have a champion pool based around Miss Fortune, Jinx, Jhin, Tristana, Caitlyn, right? (Even my secret picks like Zeri and Aphelios are useless in those situations ...) So, what do we do? Pick Smoldi and give our thoughts and prayers to the Godess Morgana that she may blesses us and lead us out of darkness and mysery? Well, this could be an option, if you want to play 45+min games on average. Not my cup of tea honestly. Am I the only one or is Smolder a tiny bit overhyped? I have a better answer than the ever scaling Smolder or Senna.

Let the Mad Dog out! Bring on the Kog'Maw!

Most people would argue, that you should play Varus and that you must play Varus. But there is a cute, silly problem: He works well in fast games, you know, pro play, where you do not have that 15 Kills Irelia, Katarina, Sett. Varus is good, but not good enough for the chaos in Solo Q.

Kog'Maw has 3 arguments on his side.

1.) Magic damage and armor reduction in his abilities.

2.) Range, omg, the range is crazy. Press R two or three times, than press W and spam from behind. This way, your Midlaner or Jungler can finish off the Mundo, Wukong or Tahm Kench, because the HP bar just disappears.

3.) Kog'Maw has the creepy tendency to be a hard counter to everything that other ADCs like to play in Low Elo. Goodbye Jinx, goodbye Miss Fortune, Kai'Sa, Ezreal, Jhin, Tristana. The list goes on and on. You must only be afraid of cheat codes like Nocturne Ultimate or a Twitch/ Evelynn being invisible. You know, how can you play against something, that you can not see with your eyes.

Last, but not least: You should continue playing Caitlyn/ Jhin + Mage Supporters or try and get the 1v5 Jinx, Tristana, Miss F in Low Elo games. In my own experience, this is the only way to win games as an ADC. You know, without changing the role and playing a Viego Jungle or Ahri Midlane. But in some games in Low Elo, Kog'Maw just destroys everything. Whenever you need Magic Damage in Bot Lane, and Ezreal is not viable because of all those Tanks, pick up Kog'Maw.
