Lee Sin is Murdered in this patch

They murdered Lee Sin by giving him no way to ward hop and no sightstone. I understand the reason trackers knife was taken out, but at the same time there is no alternative. There really can't be any consistent high level play for a lee sin player with no way to have wards outside of the trinkets. Hopefully there will be some compensation in the next patch.

You cant take it when your champ doesnt have a free out of jail card when you fail? Oh that's sad my boi.

The amount of times I've watched a Lee sin steal dragon by ulting the enemy jungler off of it and ward hopping away I would actually commend riot on their bravery. Their are plenty of champions with insane mobility unaffected by slows. I see fairer counter play because of the change. It won't lower his ability to win, but all lee sins will play on a even field based on moderate ping. Rather than low ping allowing a dash that which couldn't be dodged otherwise.

I like this and hate it at the same. I late Lee sin, because he is rewarded too much with his W. Failed a gank again oh well let me just jump to my ally running away. Oh they flashed over the wall and I missed my Q well here is my ward let me go over. Lee Sin to me is the Yasuo of the JG. Everyone wants to play him, but majority of time you will just have someone fail hard, but not be punished, because he has so many ways to escape.

He still functions fine, all he lost was his gimmick. His ganks are now a little more avoidable, but he can just do what any good Xin Zhao player knows to do and walk in without wasting Q. Just save the targeted dash for when the enemy dashes or flashes away and then follow with Q.

People are so up in arms about how "Lee is dead" when the only difference is that now his gimmick is harder to pull off. We didn't have that in-sec shit back in season 1 and 2, it was only discovered much later after he had been played for a while. The champion was viable before, and still is now. Buffs might be warranted, but he's far from dead.

The game balance team doesn't give a shit. They just break things.
