Balancing Akali

I read Meddler's comments on Akali on Surrender at 20, and felt that the changes were going to be way too painful. Making shroud not make Akali untargetable under tower is absurd, considering she's got such a long kill time(compared to other assassins). Nerfing her sustain also means that she dies hella easy. Here's how I would do it if I were Meddler:

-Towers can target Akali even though she is obscured, but Champions cannot. Tower shots also don't trail like they do normally, because that gives enemies a easy way to know where she is. The thin line will still appear, so you know the tower's shooting, but the bullets don't follow her around. Instead they just hit the shroud in the same spot over and over again until she dies, the shroud is over, or Akali runs. -Towers deal reduced damage while she's in shroud. -Q no longer heals while at near max energy -Q will heal if you hit enemy targets with the tip.

I think these changes would do pretty well. Moderators, Rioters, please read and reply.

Um, you can see her outline under the tower, so it doesn't matter if the tower follows her or not, as as long as she's in tower range, you will see her, just can't click on her.

Other than that, yea, I agree the changes are very good.
