Winners: Talon He got cool new parkour and a lot of QoL changes, for example his R auto targets anyone he aa's or q's Katarina She got hopping everywhere like a fucking madman. She also did not lose her burst window as hard. Dual passive is cool.

Losers: {{Every single other assassin here}}

AP Rengo also won. Not only is his damage combo available 100% of the time essentially, but with Stormraiders Surge and damage reduction from his W you can get out safely in most situations. Losing CC immunity will definitely hurt, but I'd bet it's still very manageable.

Leblanc got a delay but she hasn't changed because her kit design is something that's naturally strong.

Rengar's rework is what an assassin rework should've been. Making the assassins stronger while giving them their handicaps. Though with him they could've worked on him abit better.

Katarina got more diverse mechanics that finally get her passed her shitty laning and make her strong both in and out of lane.

Kha and Ekko weren't changed in an impactful way so they scrapped by.

Talon is a mix between talon mains thinking riot did good by him, and non talon mains being shit.

The rest got kit changes combined with damage nerfs and handicaps.

With every other champion class standing on their own 2 feet and becoming strong they decided to handicap the assassins with no compensation in power which now puts them far below the other classes when they were already in a tough spot. There's not even a reason to play someone like Zed over something like a fighter or a mage anymore.
