Kalista Balancing

So, Kalista Kalista has the 2nd lowest win-rate among all champions in the game. I was a huge Kalista player back in the day, and I still play her every now and then. 600k points mastery 7. Anyways, I've heard you've given up on her from another forum along with some other champs because of the balancing nightmare. I beg you to hear me out and implement some of what I have to talk about. So what do I have in mind? I suggest you put back her backward lunging bonus because that is part of the champion's entire identity/bread & butter. Why? Because at this point her dash could be emulated by simply kiting with another champion. Why play Kalsita when I can kite way better with Draven W. You KNOW this is a problem if the lunge distance can't out-kite Darius's cleaver grab & meanwhile another ADC can (ESPECIALLY WHEN KALISTA's PASSIVE ENTIRE PURPOSE IS TO KITE) she can't even kite properly. Another proposition is to up her base attack speed, her rend is a joke DESPITE even when you have what seems to be an abundance of spears in a champion. Also, it seems to me you guys are super keen on having her taken down a notch? Vayne Vayne has been in a good spot forever, would you "BALANCE" her? Honestly, if you buffed Kalista and she becomes slightly better than JUST "meta" I'd just leave it, there's nothing wrong with her be in a good spot. Not only that, DRAVEN Draven has been in a good spot for the longest time too, why isn't there a problem there? It all feels like someone at Riot Headquarters has a grudge against the champKalista or something. Espcially when Kalista's skillcap is high just like Vayne's, reward the players for doing well on a higher skillcap champion! That's all I have to say.

I completely agree from the same standpoint; both the fact that she is teammate reliant, and also ping can really screw positioning on hops even more than regular ADCs.

Kalista vs Draven all in level 2 comparison

Rend really is a joke, sadly not to mention its 50% less effective vs epic monsters now, so she literally like she only has 115% auto ratio including rend, so rip signiture rend vs smite.
