She's been bad for a while too. Since at least the "tank update" that gutted her items hard, but even prior to that since they weakened her passive shield "because combined with Courage of the Colossus gave her too strong of a no-cost burst shield," before Courage was promptly nerfed into usability and eventually removed entirely with the new runes/mastery system.
Meanwhile
gets an actually free shield on a lower cooldown and usable literally whenever she wants instead of having to last hit or foreshadow it by tossing it to the ground.
's is even stronger and just as free throughout the game, and active shields with costs like
's were and still are the strongest in the game while having a duration effective as long as until it's broken through.
The only time she can do anything meritable is against an opponent that doesn't know how to stay on the road in the middle of the lane where she can get her wall stun off.
No clue what these nerfs are you're talking about, but she's been in need of help for well over a year now.
