Everybody Knows Lee Sin is Strong and Hasn't Been Nerfed

So please stop spamming 50% of the Boards with posts about him.

If Riot really thinks that he his extremely overbearing, they'll nerf him. But do you really want to keep on circle-jerking him until he gets Elise'd or Evelyn'd? Or Kha zix'd? Olaf'd? This is what happened to those champions because a small section couldn't handle the fact that the champions were good in even a small sense. Now everybody is crying because the champions are trash tier. THIS IS WHAT YOU ASKED FOR. ARE WE REALLY GOING DOWN THIS SAME ROAD AGAIN. Please control yourselves!

Riot has already shown that they are ready to nerf Lee, and they already have with HUGE hits in the past.

Most recent change to Lee Sin in Patch 4.20:

V4.20: Stats Base armor reduced to 24.216 from 26.216. Heath regeneration reduced to 7.45 per 5 seconds from 9.45.

Oh look, a nerf.

Second most recent change.

V4.13:

Stats Base health regen increased to 8.95 per 5 seconds from 6.95. Safeguard Shield duration reduced to 2 seconds from 4. Cripple No longer reduces enemy attack speed (reduced to 0% from 20/30/40/50/60%).

A HUGE hit to his W and to his E. Removing the AS reduction E really hurt his power as a duelist and allowed some other champions to be able to compete with his early game. Wow, Riot really loves this champion and would never consider nerfing him. It's not like these changes followed other previous nerfs either.

Yes, he's currently strong, but it isn't like his is completely overbearing in the jungle right now. A LOT of other champions are better in soloQ right now and two other champions RekSai and JarvanIV are higher priority in competitive play right now. STOP POSTING ABOUT PLEASE. MY EYES NEED A REST.

Elise and Kha'Zix are still viable lol.

Lee sin is still strong, easily one of the safest and most reliable champs in the game due to his status as jack of all trades preventing Riot from nerfing him as hard as people want. If Lee is to remain viable, then he has to remain strong.
