Rek'sai is the worse scaling champion in the game and extremely clunky

Am I the only one who feels this way?

I find it idiotic how my EXECUTE ult is dodge able, my tunnels have a delay, my Q doesn't give attack speed bonus even though i'm a JUNGLER (wtf?!?),

My damage is essentially ignorable after a certain point even though I'm susceptible to being kited in a meta where everyone does damage, I walk into lane and have a chance of getting killed by the laner before I can even knock him up and my utility is lack luster since it only hits one person. My heal is a joke and doing raptors is essentially suicide. Yet these junglers i'm about to name (besides Shyvana early) destroy them after a certain point.

Why can't I play a champion who I enjoy? Why does my champion deserve to be extremely clunky when graves is the smoothest thing in the world. I can't duel Yi, Graves, Shyvana, Kha'zix without aftershock YET they outscale me. Tremor sense is actually a joke to use because someone could essentially be right next to me. All most fighters have to do is take conquerors and they already do more true damage than me AND out scale me.

Riot has decided they want Rek'sai to be some type of pseudo assassin but especially in this meta she doesn't have the tankyness OR damage to do that reliably. She is outclassed heavily.

Her W shouldn't even have ranks (allocate points to other abilities) and her Q should do more amplified damage after every q or give attack speed. Her E needs to be an AA reset and her tunnels need to be more fluid. Her base defensive stats are also awful. Another suggestion could be her damage scaling off HP.

Rek'sai is too weak past 13 minutes. Even when ahead.

Build Warrior Cleaver/Titanic (depending on how ahead you are). It is incredibly hard to 1v1/escape from a Rek'sai. Yes, your ult is dodgeable, but it also throws you right on top of them again. That is a HEAVILY advantageous position to be in when you've most likely burned a flash off of them

Rek is pretty decent, you play her like a bruiser, q is an auto reset, and you get the true damage e right away if you auto>3 q autos, and cancel that last auto with an e. Get Titanic and your burst is actually hilarious.

You make a lot of good points. She should never have been steered more towards an AD dependent build as if she were an assassin. She would fit more as a juggernaut tbh.
