Akali isn't fixed.

Yes she got really hard nerfs, but they weren't the problem and it's still pretty annoying dealing with her. She has 3 dashes, and yet can burst squishies instantly with just one, and sustain fight against bruisers and tanks with all 3. On top of this she has resets. Why does she have 3 dashes AND resets. Why not just a dash, and a reset on that dash on kill or assist. Now, this sounds a lot like Katarina without ultimate, which is what we really don't want though. So an alternative would just be to nerf her numbers and restore the Q being proc'd by her E instead.

You've obviously never played Akali...

The only way this ever happens is if you let her free farm and get fed. As for the squishies, yeah, so can any burst assassin. Keep them away from her.

Except, every burst assassin can kill their target, without having to have 3 dashes and resets and at least other assassins take time to do their combo and leave room for counterplay (Like zhonyas).

Reminder, Akali's base combo is 640(+1.7AP)(+1.6AD) (+ her passive, but that's a heavy variable based on your AD amount and AP amount and still not much damage). Her ultimate does the 'heavy' damage of ... 250 +50% AP. If you nerf her numbers, congrats, the already W and time reliant champion is even weaker.
