what is the point of playing a burst mage/assassin anymore?

unless you are someone who literally oneshots squishies before they can even auto attack once (cough lb cough rengar cough), late game adcs out-burst you by simply autoattacking and lifestealing off your equally squishy assassin......late game adcs are basically doing assassin level burst and still have dps......

and the assassin rework is giving adcs longer window to react to assassins?

man Rito totally isn't biased toward adc

Agree. I really do not understand Riot'w s dession to extend assassin's burst considering the amount of ctits and lofesteal on adc's atm....A fully fed ADC can 3 shoot a fully fed Zed with ease.

with a burst mage you just cc the target so they can't attack then do your full combo and they're dead.

both those items have a 90 second cooldown while most cc skills have about a 12 second cooldown.

that one teamfight where the adc survive the burst and kills everyone is enough to build a huge lead.

Everyone dies if 5 man are on them.

Everyone knows RIOT is biased towards marksman. Been that way for ages now.
