Sorry, if this is more of a low-elo/low-level player question, but my point is try to make more people aware of this concept.


Okay, so this has been on mind for a while now, Every time I play a game against healers, our ADC gets his 3rd item brawlers, then makes a build that absolutely makes no sense at all after that, and furthermore, he becomes practically useless against tanks, whether it Brawler's Beat Stick or Toxic Blade. I don't watch that many SPLs ; however, I don't recall or remember an ADC building an Anti-Heal item at all, even if the enemy has multiple healers. My personal opinion is that an ADC should NOT build anti-heal, an ADC should be able to carry late game and able to kill no matter what the target opposing him/her , though they should go for their ADC build that will let them do so, furthermore late game even if the enemy has healing an ADC with right build will be able to kill that god no matter what, for teamfights, I personally think that mages, and guardians should apply anti heal whether it is by bursting the enemy with Divine Ruin or being in the middle of the fight Pestilence. Assuming I am a typical physical ADC, I would go like this Transcendence, Ninja Tabi, Executioner, Deathbringer, Qin Sais, Titan's Bane, If I remove Transcendence, I basically have no damage source and therefore weak AAs. No Boots = No Escape, Slow rotations, Whether you remove Executioner or Titan's Bane, you won't be able to penetrate through tank's defenses, you remove Qin's Sais, you have no way to chop through them if they have a lot of health build, you remove Deathbringer, you will have to land every single AA without missing and could probably be shut down before taking down the enemy, logically, if an ADC would not build a defensive item to make him/her survive in order to have the maximum damage output to the enemy, should they even consider buying an Anti-heal when they can have a confirmed kill

Therefore, I am asking whether or not an ADC should have anti-heal in their build, or even consider having anti-heal.
