MORE Rek'Sai nerfs?

She needs some changes to be honest. You've made her a W bot and she needs changes so she can be buffed.

I can't believe they are actually considering MORE nerfs. This is getting ridiculous. They WANT Rek'Sai to fail as a champion. And the only reason she is getting this many nerfs is because she sees LCS play.

Seriously Riot, rework her or delete her. I'm so tired of all of these nerfs that are largely unnecessary.

Needs a rework. The champion has had to be nerfed time and time again because of pro play yet they still can't get rid of her. And at the same time she isn't a good pick in solo queue.

That's bad champion design.

SolitairAug 30, 20161 votes

lol rework is pointless. The last few reworks Riot just looks for the most cancerous, broken, problematic aspect of a champion that made them a balance nightmare in the first place and says "well what we really like about this champion is this big fucking tumor right here, so we're keeping that, buffing its damage, lowering its cd, buffing its range, and changing everything else specifically to revolve around it". The entire reason she is getting picked and nerfed would guaranteed be kept , leading the cycle to begin again. They should just accept that they created a ganking ward you can pick in champion select--and then subsequently nerfed other sources of vision, and that this was a mistake.

too good for Esports. must nerf.

Thanks LCS. Another one of my mains dumpstered.

Hi everyone. For those who dont know, patch 6.18 will be the patch that Worlds is played on. Rek'Sai getting nerfed is directly because of her strength in competitve play. Dont expect these nerfs to stick around after patch 6.18. Thanks.

excpet they have ALWAYS stayed..

her unborrow radius was nerfed for lcs her fury for unborrow was removed for lcs the tremor sense was nerfed for lcs and now her ulti and her tunnel has been nerfed for lcs

what makes you think they will revert the nerfs after lcs when they NEVER have

BisaknospAug 30, 20163 votes

Reminds me of when they tried to nerf him out worlds too

Rek'sai right now is literally the Olaf of season 2, except just nerfs over a longer duration of time.

The Blue RajahAug 30, 20162 votes

Honestly, I think the armor nerfs are appropriate in the sense that she has one of the absolute safest clears in the game. However, it's pretty clear that her power is going to be wrecked due to this. What I would like to see though is damage scaling buffs to bring her back up rather than reversions to these nerfs, so that she can actually build more like a bruiser and be threatening in ways other than just being a knock-up bot.

Same!

Well unless you want to see reksai every game ..

ProfirixAug 29, 201615 votes

It's legitimately only in the LCS. I NEVER see Rek'Sai anymore in normals or ranked.

GULAG 4 UAug 29, 20161 votes

That's what I meant.

ProfirixAug 29, 20162 votes

But that's not a good enough reason to repeatedly nerf a champion. Just because <0.01% of the population has a high pick/win percentage under very specific circumstances doesn't mean the champion needs to be deleted.

GULAG 4 UAug 29, 20164 votes

You're right, but riots goal rite now is to stop the reksai va fatass every game so expect nonsense.

Closer to 0.001%, I think. But I agree.

Yes, but why not nerf Gragas too?

GULAG 4 UAug 30, 20161 votes

Because he gets picked nonstop too.

Troll for TrumpAug 30, 20162 votes

....what?

Riot wants to stop Gragas and Rek'sai from appearing; They nerf Rek'sai. Why not nerf Gragas?

If you're not Diamond, maybe Platinum, then you won't see her. She's basically THE jungler for high ELO this season.

I haven't seen her in at least 2 months lol I have seen Yorick and Urgot more like wtf

Out of the 5 games I've played today 3 of them have had RekSai

MunchCrunchLunchAug 29, 20161 votes

if shes getting nerfed for LCS. where are Elise Bard Cassiopeia Taric Braum nerfs

BârdAug 30, 20162 votes

Taric and Braum have already been nerfed into a pretty balanced state.

Elise is a good champion, but not exactly worthy of nerfs.

Bard isn't remotely broken.

Cass is strong, but considering that the Assassin rework is coming soon, the meta shift that is likely to come will be enough of a nerf to her.

Troll for TrumpAug 30, 20161 votes

She's not really weak against assassins, except when she's isolated lategame. In lane(most assassins are melee) she can bully them extremely hard. And they won't kill her unless they're Zed, Yasuo, Fizz, or Ekko.

SolitairAug 30, 20161 votes

Oh god, assassin meta...that's the most frightening thing I've heard in a while

Rek'sai crowds diversity and stomps the early game.

Those are just good. With cassio maybe being a bit too good.

Rank does not automatically validate or invalidate your argument. If you thought past your bias you would see this.
