Why do people hate Twitch as ADC?
I love playing Twitch as ADC.
Basically, if I need to play ADC, I 80% of the time pick
Twitch.
However, each time I pick him, people always say to me this:
Apple King: Bro, don't pick Twitch, he is superbad ADC
Meiyjhe the Epic: Not when I play him
Apple King: If you suck, I report you
Meiyjhe the Epic: Don't worry, I won't ;D
Then in-game, I got 17-3-8 or something, pretty much melt everyone down in their team.
I don't understand, why do people hate Twitch as ADC in the first place?
What is so bad about him?

-- Good Luck.
Not positive about the assists though, I felt he was snowbally as soon as I got Bork, but no penta so rip the dream.
He is 100% item dependent, possibly the most item dependent of all adcs. He has extremely weak matchups versus taric, Leona, Caitlyn, nunu, graves, just to name a few. He is extremely team dependent and if your positioning isn't perfect in teamfigths, you will explode. More popular adcs have some mobility to keep them safe all game while twitch has none. Also, if you get unlucky and don't crit any ultimate shots, you really don't pour on the damage. He gets wrecked by gapclosers and assassins, both of which dominate the meta at the moment.
