I am confused why Akali is getting nerfed. I look at the data for season 9 pro play in LPL, LCK, LEC, LCS, and akali's winrate is 54% with 426 picks. Xayah has a 54% winrate with 515 picks... Sylas has a 53% winrate with 510 picks and you give him a buff????????? Lissandra, gragas, rakan have over 400 picks each with a 55-56% winrate. Skarner and qiyana were picked significantly less, but boast crazy winrates (56% and 60% respectively).

Is akali overtuned? sure.

Why tf do you have to make her ult targetable though? She will HAVE to run hourglass 3rd item now and that is so goddamn boring. What if I want to pick item 3089 because I am ahead item 3165 to deal with some some sustain monster item 3151 fck it item 3100 or I am tryna tap people with GB, lich passive, and ignite.

I do not have much to contribute for nerfs, everyone seems to hate the idea of damage nerfs but I dont think that would be the craziest thing ever. Q could do less damage vs minions? Sometimes it is to easy to press lead by shoving wave and roaming with ult.

Please, for the love of God, do not make her ult targetable though. That takes out A LOT of the fun and a lot of cool outplay from akali. I think its so cool I can ult to the side away from the tanks front line, hit e on the adc behind said tanks, and follow in with e then ult adc. Now I have to run up to the adc (impossible with tanks and cc fire hoses) and be forced into a predictable direction for ult......... and then wait to use 2nd part of ult. imma have to flash the adc, ult, hourglass so I dont get chain cc'd into next game, then e closer to adc, and finish ult.

It sets a terrible precedent coming out with all of these skins for akali, which i bought because I am a noob, and i put so much time into her and now youre going to completely force me to change my gameplay with her WHEN SHE ISNT EVEN BUSTED LIKE SET EKKO QIYANNA YOUR NEW BABIES.

btw, sett and ekko are the only 2 champions above a 60% "best" winrate right now. Wanna fix them first? They are shitting on solo Q at the moment. https://lolalytics.com/lol/tierlist/?lang=

P.S.S. in pro play season 10 in top 4 leagues... the most picks is 32 on miss fortune for reference. Braum has 27 picks and a 57% winrate...... and Morde has 19 picks at 58% winrate..... gragas 12 picks 75% winrate, renek 11 picks 73% winrate, rakan 9 picks 100% winrate. These guys are all OP. Obviously I would let season play out before nerfing them, but can we please think of a new nerf for akali though besides changing how she will be played.... Come on man.

Other champions deserving nerfs does not mean akali doesn't deserve hers.

I hope she eats more nerfs soon. Her trading pattern vs melees is absurd.

The post is too long but centered around me asking to not make her ult targetable. I’m fine with some sort of nerf. Making her ultimate targetable completely changes how she will be played. I don’t see why that’s fair when she’s not broke like other champions. Again, any other nerf besides an ult rework would be fcking great. I’d like her to have the same feel and I have to play better. Why tf should I have to learn how to play her again after her rework and they released a ton of skins. It’s BULLSHIT.

You don't have to relearn her.

In fact, there are fewer options for her ult, so now she's more straightforward, even if not by much.

I dont ever use R1 for targeting.. you use it to avoid front line/skill shot/gap close hit e on adc or squish and follow in. if you use r1 on adc or frontline you are going to be standing there for 2.5 seconds with ur hands in ur pocket.

1 v 1 will be fine with targeting, team fights its gonna be terrible......
