LoL 14.13 ADC Champions Tier List: Best Ranked Picks

In the last ADC tier list, we mentioned Kalista is not in a good place and it turns out things can get even worse for her! She received a serious nerf from Riot to her base stats, W and Ult.

PROS: 

• Great mobility
• Amazing kiting

CONS: 

• Hard to learn
• Ult is dependent on the team

There were some attempts at making Smolder viable but he's just not a good choice for ADC or Mid. This champion's overall state is a PASS!

PROS:

• AoE Damage

CONS:

• Squishy
• Dependent on gold and stacks
• Quite weak

Corki is amongst the ADCs with the lowest win rates so far in LoL Patch 14.13. He's just not doing well and you should definitely not waste your time with him in Ranked.

PROS:

• Okay range
• Good in team fights
• Easy CS

CONS:

• Squishy
• Mana hungry
• No CC

The 2024 Season in League of Legends started off poorly for Aphelios but Riot has been trying their best to make him a viable choice. He's still in an unstable place and very dependent on how good your skills are.

PROS:

• AoE damage
• Great duelist

CONS:

• Difficult to play
• No mobility

Draven is a fan favorite who's been hard-stuck in the low tiers. He was in a stable place in LoL patch 14.11 but he's been doing worse since then.

PROS:

• Snowball potential
• Aggressive and fun

CONS:

• Difficult to have a comeback if you're behind

Varus got a lot of adjustments in the recent League of Legends update, in order to push players into using on-hit builds for him. With great poke and good objective-taking, he can add a lot to the team. Unfortunately, so far it seems like he's not performing that well and his win rate is going down. 

PROS: 

• Adequate damage and tower pushing
• Good tank killer

CONS: 

• Very squishy
• Can struggle against heavy engage comps

As usual, Sivir is 'just okay' as an ADC. There's a lot of room for improvement with her, Riot. Keep in mind that she's possibly one of the best pushers in the game.

PROS:

• Shield
• Good wave clear

CONS:

• Squishy
• Short range

Samira peaked a few patches ago and since then she's only been performing worse and worse. Add her difficult mechanics to that and you have a pretty bad combination.

PROS:

• Great in team fights
• Huge snowball potential
• Mobile

CONS:

• Difficult to pick up and master
• Weaker late game
• You need to hit combos
• Highest ADC ban rate

Guess who's finally out of the D-tier? That's right, Xayah received a buff to her E in LoL patch 14.13. This is a significant boost for her although she's still not as strong as many other champion options.

PROS:

• AoE CC
• Good in team fights
• Decent scaling

CONS:

• Full potential only with Rakan
• Not that easy to pick up

Lucian is one of the LoL champions who's been in a weird state in Season 14. He might not feel good to play in Ranked unless you main him. 

PROS:

• Amazing duelist
• Very mobile

CONS:

• Short range

Tristana has always been a decent choice that can turn into an absolute monster in the right player's hands. She's very fun to play and an always decent LoL champion pick. Can you stomp the enemy team? Hell yeah! Will it take skill? Absolutely!

PROS:

• Strong mid-late game
• Easy to pick up

CONS:

• Squishy
• Short range early on

Yasuo seems to be in a decent place both in the bot lane and the mid lane - not amazing but not bad either. Definitely a choice for the seasoned Yasuo players only. 

PROS:

• Huge carry potential in low elo
• Annoying lane bully
• Dominates team fights

CONS:

• High ban and pick rate
• Low elo players don't play him well (huge feed potential)

Riot had good intentions with Zeri but she's always lacking something to preform well. We're always seeing her going up and down this tier list...

PROS: 

• Easily dodges abilities
• AoE damage

CONS:

• Very hard to pick up and master
• Squishy
• Weak early game

Brand was so used to dominating all lanes in the last few patches. However, in the recent League of Legends update his Passive and E got nerfed. This shouldn't bother you though, as he's still an OP pick. 

PROS:

• Amazing AoE damage
• Easy to pick up and master

CONS:

• Bad utility
• Easily out-sustained 

Nilah is an underrated ADC who's been performing extremely well in the current League of Legends season, especially after the buff in patch 14.12. She'll shine the brightest in team fights.

PROS:

• Hypercarry
• Strong in team fights
• A lot of players in Low Elo don't know how to counter her

CONS:

• Squishy
• Vulnerable to CC
• Hard to master

Surprisingly, Kog'Maw is turning into a stable and decent choice for ADC in Ranked.

PROS:

• Mixed damage
• Hypercarry potential
• Strong late game
• Good range

CONS:

• Weak early game
• No mobility
• Relies on the team

Guess who's still in the ADC A-tier and going strong? Seraphine has been a surprisingly good ADC for a while now and her win rate is getting better and better. She has everything you need - charm, stun, shield, and heal!

PROS:

• Versatile kit
• Strong Utility
• Heal and shield
• Low pick and ban rate

CONS:

• Squishy

The item changes in patch 14.12 returned Vayne to the top ADC tiers and this amazing duelist is here to stay.

PROS:

• Great carry potential
• Spykes after just one item
• Scales very well

CONS:

• Bad wave clear
• Very dependent on the support early on

With high poke and AoE damage, Ziggs can be very fun to play in Ranked. The best thing is that he can be strong even from behind.

PROS:

• Great late game
• Amazing zoning

CONS:

• Squishy
• Mana hungry

Ezreal got a much-deserved buff in the last patch. He's a good choice for the Summoner's Rift and we'll keep an eye on Riot's future plans for his state.

PROS: 

• Long range
• Hybrid damage

CONS: 

• Weak AAs
• Takes too much time to scale

LoL patch 14.13 brought a serious overall buff to MF (base attack damage and her W, Strut), making her quite OP. But, honestly, when hasn't she been a really good champion for Ranked?

PROS:

• Great poke
• Lane bully
• Strong burst

CONS:

• Squishy

Kai'Sa is doing amazing in LoL Patch 14.13. As a hybrid between a marksman and an assassin, she's absolutely insane in lane, if played properly. Just make sure you ban ADC champs who out-range her, such as Caitlyn.

PROS:

• High burst and DPS
• Great scaling

CONS:

• Reliant on items
• Not as easy to play as other ADCs

Jinx continues to be the dominating force in the bot lane. She's definitely a champion you should've picked up by now if you still haven't done so. Late game Jinx is absolutely insane and she's also really good with taking objectives.

PROS:

• Easy to play and master
• Huge range
• Global ULT

CONS:

• Squishy
• Reliant on items
• High pick and ban rate

Similar to Jinx, Jhin has been killing it in the past few patches, due to his great itemization. He's a classic LoL champion who is always performing well. Absolutely a champ pick you shouldn't sleep on!

PROS:

• Great scaling
• Versatile kit
• Amazing range and AD

CONS:

• Difficult to master
• Low attack speed

Caitlyn has turned into a monster in the bot lane her huge range and useful traps. She's been a force for quite a few patches now.

PROS: 

• Huge range
• Great poke

CONS:

• Difficult early game

Twitch is one of those ADCs who are really annoying to play against. He's overall a menace and you can use this to your advantage in Ranked.

PROS:

• Long range
• Stealthy
• Insane late game

CONS:

• Low utility 
• Weak early game

Ashe's passive might have gotten nerfed in patch 14.12 but she's still absolutely unstoppable. 

PROS:

• Strong crowd control and vision
• Global Ult

CONS:

• Low Burst
