Why haven't Wukong and Nocturne been nerfed yet?

Wukong literally has zero counterplay and just flies out at you and instabursts you, and then Ws out if he needs to. He was just deleting my fed AD last game and I couldn't do anything about it. It's just gross to watch and not fun to play against at all. Nocturne is pretty much the same, if you're in his range he can ult and burst you. I just played a game with an enemy Noct and Wu, we still won, but it wasn't fun at all, and I feel empty. How long is league going to remain an instaburst game? It's kinda annoying already.

Probably because their kits are binary, making balance difficult.

Nerf them too little and they will still be dominant, nerf them too much and they will be trash tier. Riot is probably looking into the underlying reasons why they are a problem. Or maybe they're looking into long-term fixes for the characters.

It could also be because the champs are only a problem now because of items that have been released recently. If those items are the problem then it's a much more involved process to ensure that nerfs don't unfairly impact other characters that also use the same items.

Im all for nerfing nocturne. That ult range gotta goooooo Its legit cancer if he wants to camp a lane and can ult u from so far away. doesnt help that he can easily kill u as well especially as a adc basically no counter play at all

Wukong is getting a nerf in 8.14 I think.

Somebody told me the damage on his E would be lowered.

Bro your just bad because you don't know how to play against Wukong. Its ur jg/top fault for not countering wukong. And the 8.6 duskblade nerf already hurt Wukong quite a bit.
