Celeste Celeste will never hit you so long as you get Travel boots before her overdrive.
3
Reim This geezer is a perfect example of why you are better than mortals. just poke and kite him 'till he dies of old age.
4
Ringo Ringo cant do too much to you in lane because of Adagio's huge basic attack range, but watch out for that Achilles Shot.
4
Phinn He is a sitting duck unless he hooks you. You're on your own when that happens.

Vox If Vox builds WP then you are going to have a fun lane, if he builds CP then be careful.

7
Skye She is very mobile and will give you a headache if your team doesn't help
7
Baron Scrub still doesn't have as much range as you when his ult is maxed. Those mortars will kick your ass though.
8
  No Threat
9
SAW You don't have too much more range than Saw so play carefully against him. He will do just as much damage per-shot as you do, if not more, and in the time it takes you to hit him once, he can get you at least 3 times.
9
Petal Petal is a problem in the exact same way as Saw.
9
Catherine She is fast, has amazing CC, and can reflect your ult back in your face should you decide to use it.

Fortress He enables those damn junglers.

Intro: Top

Hello everyone!
This is my very first guide for VG so in honor of that I am doing it on a total joke.

Wp lane Adagio is something my friends and I have done on multiple occasions. The general idea is that Adagio has the longest basic attack range in the game, you can use that to do massive damage in a teamfight while staying much more safe than your average ADC.

Sadly, this has a few drawbacks, as Adagio you have absolutely no movement abilities and can be bursted down in an instant.
On the other hand, anybody else who doesn't move much will get absolutely destroyed

In the beginning, the Storm Queen said, "Let your ass be camped": Top

At the start you want to grab a Weapon Blade and a Swift Shooter, but you can substitute that for an Energy Battery if you want to.
The enemy team will probably laugh at you for picking two supports, but they will still try to camp you because they know Adagio can do stupid damage and make his team immortal if he gets fed.

Play it safe. You can push REALLY HARD with your heals and superior range, but you don't want to. Since he has no escapes, pushing with Adagio means instant death. Instead, try to get only the last hits on minions. It will be tough at the start, which is why you take your buff first. When you get your heal at level two, be a bit aggressive with it Cast it on a big minion and then lay into the enemy's minions to get your energy back. Once you are back to full, back off. If the enemy pushes to your tower, cast Gift of Fire on a big minion so he can hold on for a moment longer as well as ignite the enemy wave. If your enemies are stupid (which they usually are), they are gonna start feeling high and mighty. Let your team know to capitalize on it.

Then the fun starts!: Top

Mid and late game are not that complicated.

You should have at least a Sorrowblade and Blazing Salvo by the time teamfights start escalating. After that you get attack speed and crits. You should try to get tier two boots as soon as your sorrowblade is done, and also some defense. Since health items increase your healing, the Aegis is the most appealing form of protection as always. However, if the enemy WP hero is showing you all the joys of a grey death screen then grab the jacket. If EVERYONE is curb stomping you then you may want to try the new Slumbering Husk.

The most important advice I can give you is as soon as you loose your second tower, do not go ANYWHERE without your team. Absolutely nothing will save you if you are 15 minutes into the game, farming the middle of the lane alone and the enemy team jumps out at you. STICK WITH YOUR TEAM!

In fights you are just like any other ADC except you can heal your teammates then buff yourself for extra damage. Play super safe as usual. It only takes one Pouncy Fun or Rocket Leap or any other jungler's ability to give you a one-way ticket back to your fountain. Don't bother with your ult unless you know you wont die instantly. Keep an eye out for your teammates' stuns and other CC. When they pin someone, burn their eyebrows off... and the rest of their face.
Rinse and repeat until you loos-I MEAN WIN!
