It's funny that mid lane AD picks are in such a poor state that only ADC champions are considered the only viability for high-level gameplay and esports.
- Tristana and Corki dominating mid lane as the dominant AD picks for pro play (tristana also has high pr in soloq)
I'm obviously not against the fact that ADC champions are viable on mid lane under specific circumstances (like Tristana used to be a good counter to Azir, but now she rules the entire meta which is a bit off for me) but it's deffinitely feels strange that mid lanes dedicated picks have no such presence by themselves.
- Champions like Akshan, Naafiri, Qiyana, Talon, Zed should not become meta either because they would be spammed in off roles (S11 Talon Qiyana jungle games) or because in general their value to teams are just too low
- On the other hand Irelia, Pantheon and Yasuo are viable mid laners and they should have better options when the meta supposed to favor AD midlaners.
- Champions like Yone and Jayce are played tho.
All I try to say is that I would love the idea to have better AD midlaners that are dedicacted mid laners. I was so hyped when they announced the works for an ADC midlaner....Too bad it ended up to be Akshan who is a pretty underwhelming champion to play.
Despite being a strong soloq pick since release he is just feels strange to play for me at least.
I was always on the opinion that pro palyers should have bigger pool and pro game sshould have bigger variety of chamions.
First and foremost view is generating the money and makes sure esport can exists which helps lol to remain one of the most played game sin the world.
Regardless of what some part of the community thinks bigger variety in pool is essential to keep this game alive and fresh.
C9 Hai thinks Fearless Draft could solve some of LoL's problems - "It makes the game still feel alive, it gets interesting for viewers. As far as competitive ‘integrity’ goes, I don’t care, I’m not a player anymore. I think making players have a bigger champion pool is important. "
