Read this Heroo, it is very helpful

CC heavy carry is a carry with alot of crowd control. Like slows/stuns/snares. A good example would be Ashe.

You also have an AP carry which is an ability power carry that goes mid or top lane.

That should be it I guess.

But u can distinguish them by ranged and melee
Another example for a melee ad carry is Master Yi, he has a burst attack damage output

People just got used to call AD carries the ranged ones since the "meta" we usually play they are nominated by that!

Ad carries are defined by steroids, be it attack speed, crit or ad. They all have some way to enhance their auto attack damage, which is why yi trynd and fiora ARE ad carries. Being melee has nothing to do with that. In fact their steroids are some of the best amongst carries, look at fioras 120% attack speed buff for example.

The problem with melee ad carries is indeed that they tend to get blown up, but that doesn't mean they're not carries. It just means they lack the item choices to be viable in their intended role.
Melee carries need a black king bar or something like it to work (basically an olaf ult on an item).

Burst damage is for assassins like Talon, Akali and Kassadin. (Talon also has AD, is he an 'AD Carry' now too?)

Keeping it simple, you could say that you're an AD carry when you're being supported in lane. Someone is giving his farm to you so you can 'carry'. Tryndamere, Jax and Master Yi all have terrible duo lanes. They all have shit sustained harass (cooldown/mana based) and no range, they'll be zoned by any decent ranged ad/support combo.

Also, AD carries have everything to do with range. How would you stay alive if you're an 'AD Carry' that's melee and is rocking IE/PD/LW for maximum dmg but gets one shot every time he goes in?
You need to be ranged if you want to be able to trade off survivability for damage effectively.
You can play Jax/Trynd/Master Yi with a support and think of yourself as the 'AD Carry' (remember, ad carry role = do the most damage) and be 1 shot over and over. Or you can just accept the fact that you need range in order to have maximum survivability and thus maximum damage output.

futuresight wrote:Well yes, QSS and cleanse are LoL's items for that role. But while these are enough for ranged carries, it's not enough for melees who have to get into all the aoe that flies around.
The item I mentioned is more like a banshees veil that instead of blocking one spell, can be activated to temporarily block all incoming spells (there are exceptions, but essentially this is what it does).
