I looked at Kat's proposed new kit

And...how am I supposed to build her now?

Here's the thing: I have been playing LoL since 2009 and Katarina's been my favorite champion for all but like a month of that. I get it, she's bad for the game with her current kit. If she isn't absolutely terrible she is way, way too good. The AOE resets off of one targeted, near instant combo make her unhealthy.

But this? How am I supposed to build her? AD bruiser with Triforce? Her AP burst got cut to ribbons here, and if I want to make use of that autoattack and AD scaling I have to build double pen.

Maybe I'm missing something that Riot sees in it, but to me it looks like they've just produced a really unfocused kit, and I would really like to know what they're thinking with all this.
