Lux

Lux, League of Legends

Price: 790 RP – 3150 IP

Lux deals high magic damage and is very squishy. It is very easy to pick up a lot of kills with her once you know how she works. The basic gist is stun > slow > ultimate. She has very high burst damage and low cool downs. She is good against Ryze, Heimerdinger, Karthus, and Brand. She is bad against Talon, Gragas, Zed, and Orianna.

Passive – Damaging spells stack on enemies and auto attacks or her ultimate will consume those stacks to do more damage.

Q – A skill shot root. The difference between a root and stun is with a root you can still use abilities.

W – Self and ally shield. Throw it into the team fights.

E – Target area AOE and slow. Delayed detonation unless used twice.

R – Long range, high damage skill shot. You will pick up a lot of kills with this.

ADC

Attack damage carry is a part of the double team in bot lane. The idea is that the ADC will stack a lot of attack damage and wreck the enemies in the late game by last hitting the creep (though this should be done in all lanes, at lower levels the ADC gets scolded for low creep score in League of Legends).

Caitlyn

Caitlyn, League of Legends

Price: 880 RP – 4800 IP

Caitlyn is one of the easier ADC’s to use in League of Legends as she has a wicked long auto attack range, making it easier to stay at a distance and not over extend. She is good against Vayne, Corki, Twitch, and Graves. She is bad against Sivir, Varus, Jinx, and Tristana.

Passive – Auto attacks grant a stack of ‘Headshot’ and at enough stacks her next auto attack will do bonus damage.

Q – Long ranged skill shot that will pass through enemies, dealing progressively less damage.

W – She places a trap which will root enemies who stand on it.

E – She fires a net which shoots her backwards and slows any enemy the net hits.

Sivir

Sivir, League of Legends

Price: 260 RP – 450 IP

Sivir is also a very easy ADC to play in League of Legends because one of the biggest parts of this role, last hitting, is made easier with her Ricochet ability. She is good against Caitlyn, Jinx, Blitzcrank, and Graves. She is bad against Vayne, Twitch, Kog’Maw, and Tristana.

Passive – Hitting enemies with auto attacks grants bonus movement speed for a short duration.

Q – A moderate damage skill shot that will pass through enemies twice, once going forward and then again returning.

W – Her auto attacks will bounce among enemies causing increased damage

E – She will shield her self from the next ability based attack and gain mana for it.

Support

Support is the other half of the bot lane double team. It is the support’s job to protect the ADC and try and set up kills on the enemy bot lane.

Leona

Leona, League of Legends

Price: 880 RP – 4800 IP

Leona is one of the most versatile supports out when it comes to engaging the enemy. She has the utility to lock down the enemy team, not just a single target. She is good against Blitzcrank, Sona, Braum, and Draven. She is bad against Morgana, Alistar, Lulu, and Janna.
