An ADC fail is when the carry player in a team-based game catastrophically underperforms — dying repeatedly, missing last hits, mispositioned in teamfights, or pouring endless gold into a zero-impact performance. It's a specific flavor of gaming frustration because the ADC is supposed to be the win condition; when they fail, the entire team's strategy collapses. The term is also a genre of gaming content — compilations of attack damage carries walking directly into five enemies and dying immediately.
That was such an adc fail — walked into their entire team at level 6 with no flash.
