LCS Summer 2020: Week 8 Player Power Ranking
By Josh Tyler
Our LCS Summer 2020 Week 8 player power ranking ranks the ADCs.
ADC
1. Edward “Tactical” Ra (Team Liquid) – 89.2
2. Ian Victor “FBI” Huang (Golden Guardians) – 88.1
3. Bae “Bang” Jun-sik (Evil Geniuses) – 86.8
Bang’s stats are incredibly impressive (a 10.50 aKDA and 618.5 aDPM) but unfortunately I still think that he is playing a bit too conservatively. He has the lowest kill participation (59.2%) of all AD Carries in the LCS despite all that damage to champions.
4. Yiliang “Doublelift” Peng (TSM) – 86.2
5. Jason “WildTurtle” Tran (FlyQuest) – 81.6
Man alive did WildTurtle have one heck of a Week 8, despite playing supportive ADCs in both games. He went 2/0/10 on Ashe in the win over EG and 6/2/13 on Senna as the team took down 100 Thieves.
Despite his reputation for playing a bit too loose, this season Turtle has actually been one of the better bot laners when it comes to limiting needless deaths (1.3 deaths per game and only four unforced deaths all year). That has helped to give him the third-highest adjusted KDA of all ADCs (4.73).
6. Jesper “Zven” Svenningsen (Cloud9) – 81.4
7. Johnson “Johnsun” Nguyen (Dignitas) – 80.1
8. Trevor “Stixxay” Hayes (CLG) – 79.4
With CLG making a change in the mid lane, why not make a similar swap in the ADC role. Stixxay has proven that he is basically the Pobelter of the bot lane while Oh “Wind” Myeong-jin has done pretty well in Academy.
9. Brandon “Mash” Phan (FlyQuest) – 76.2
10. Cody “Cody Sun” Sun (100 Thieves) – 75.9
11. Apollo “Apollo” Price (Immortals) – 73.1
12. Johnny “Altec” Ru (Immortals) – 68.2
