Kha'zix and other "Oppotunistic" picks

Anyone else tired that champions like Khazix do not really have to do anything at all in order to get fed. They benefit off other people's work and I find that completely unacceptable. Especially when their playerbase are so arrogant and complain about AD Assassins being "weak". They aren't weak at all.

All assassins need to do is wait for a lane to be brought to under 50% health and then jump on them and take the credit and FREE KILLS. They don't have to do any real work for it and get full credit. I think this is the main reason I hate assassins and their playerbase so much because they get tools that mean that they do not really have to put any effort in at all.

Then Riot goes and makes it 10x easier for Stealth Champs to get into a lane and kill somebody because there is no real reliable counter to stealth based champions anymore. Can we please have Pink Wards back, Shaco and Rengar CERTAINLY did not suffer when they were implemented in the game.

As a support player, I find it frustrating that I need to put in all this effort to protect my ADC and to do my job but assassins don't have to put half as much thought into their role as they can profit off everyone else.

Kha'zix really struggles against non-isolated targets unless you fed your ass off to him and he's several items ahead. In his case, sitting under tower means you're basically fine.

You do realize that Control Wards can see Rengar in his ult right?

At full health, yes, but since he can leap pretty far and have stealth, he can easily gank targets below 50% health and jump out of lane again. So he profits off other people's work.

A Kha'zix player will usually never have to engage a full health target in early game since they profit off other people's work in lanes.

Except unless Kha'zix evolves E first, which makes him easier to duel because his sustained damage from having evolved Q isn't there, his Leap range isn't all that long and he can't leap out after securing the kill.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=brkgDtMKEPU Actually have you thought the other way around? Not to defend em but, Khazix mains are quite generally thought to be the most opportunistic players on this game, since their kit actually demands it. They strive for it and they will MAKE opportunities to win. They are known to pockmark the enemy jungle with wards to avoid counterganked or make a duel with isolations, or wait like an eternity to chop your block off. They tend to be quite patient.

On the other hand, if you dont give him the thing they want he will just hang around and fall off. But, if you just hand them a sliver of something sweet they will grab it and yank it fast as they can to their pockets.
