AD Carry Role Overview


The AD (Attack Damage) Carry  along with the AP (Ability Power) Carry distinguish themselves as the team’s highest damage dealers. However, the vast majority of carries trade damage over survivability. According to Chaox (2013), the ADC is dependent on gold through farming (p.1). As a result, shutting them down in lane will put a heavy burden on carries. Thus forth, it is necessary to place them in lanes that will benefit their growth. In fact, the AD Carry is paired along with the Support in the bot lane to provide coverage and protection. Additionally, Chaox (2013) states that certain pairings between the AD Carry and Support are more powerful than others (p.1). For example, Kog Maw and Nunu synergize due to the former’s percent damage on hit and the latter’s attack speed buff.
