  • Can't outplay point and click abilities -Can't kill her before she kills you

When Akali is not fed/feeding

  • Does not have enough damage to kill carries before she gets murdered
  • Can not front line, zone, or waveclear
  • No utility

And she didn't get many changes in the assassin update because Riot wants to do a full VGU on her, which I expect will likely be taken over by the team that's currently working on Urgot when they're done with him. (Just my guess though).

Swain is on higher priority. Then they'll have to rework Ryze a couple more times. It'll take a while.

Her rework is likely the one after the eve rework.

They made her feel fucking clunky by removing the ability to proc Q off the E. Why the fuck did they do that?

I imagine the same reason Poppy was kept in a garbage state before her rework.

They did that back in season 3 and they did that because her ability to survive till 6 and then 1-shot literally anyone in the game was even more absurd with E able to proc Q.

That is a horrible fix. You have an E that does not synergies with her kit at all now.

You can never famine though if you never feed.

She's not completely famine, but pretty famine.

If she's only slightly behind and you cannot engage on her properly, she will poke with q and sustain with passive.
