I've been playing rek nearly since her release, and i gotta say those last nerfs were quite...tangible. I've seen the nerfs that are on the pbe right now and i have to ask you to please, not nerf her physical power anymore. She is in the high ban column because she doesn't take a huge amount(azir) of skill to play well, and people aren't used to her yet. The proposed top end nerfs for rek will neuter(spay?) her late game and turn her into a knock up machine and little else. People are afraid of her because she brings alot of innate utility in her kit.

Please give people time to adjust to her, she will start falling out of the ban column as her weaknesses are discovered(in a practical sense) don't just keep swinging the nerf bat till she's bloodied up enough that people aren't afraid of her anymore. She's new, she's scary, but she's also squishy and has VERY clear weaknesses burrowed, and un burrowed. If nothing else delay these extraneous nerfs a patch, take a minute to think about this, let people really get to know her; and if you do i think you'll see that she's not that op after all.

I'm Getting the Feeling that they are beginning to Balance things around the LCS again. She is being Picked/banned heavily in the LCS, mostly due to her utility and global map pressure.

And yet they want to balance around said map pressure, so they nerf her Clear speed, and dueling. I get the Feeling that her map pressure will become useless if she gets over nerfed.

Rito can swing the bat all then want... but they'll never hit their target LeeSin

I feel like she is too strong at the moment. She can 100-0 an ADC in the time it takes them to hit the ground after being knocked up by her. She basically has a malphite ultimate with her skill set that is on a much shorter cooldown. Her damage is too high and later in the game she doesn't take enough damage. Her high mobility helps her get into position to do what she needs to do for her team. But the APC and ADC shouldn't have to run in fear because rek,sai is about to 1v2 them. In my opinion her damage should be nerfed a bit, not a whole lot, but as she stands she does too much damage and is too tanky for the amount of damage she does.

Have you played her live yet?

Is she worthless?

Honest question.

What is her weakness while burrowed? The only time she unborrows is to CC and do damage, there is no drawback to just staying burrowed forever until you feel like fighting.
