Yet again Akali is nerfed again

metroman450··11 votes·2,296 views

Just watched a video including patch updates where akali is getting nerfed. If riot doesn't know how to balance her then they should just revert her at this point. Akali didn't need a nerf. It's just some people complaining how they cant lane against akali. Can't wait to get down voted.

Imma up vote because I don't want to see her nerfed. She is even worse than Ryze :(

BTW, she is nerfed because of the LCS and proplayers

The akali rework was a failure. Akali didn't need a rework. There were other champs who needed a rework before her like volibear and fiddlesticks. At this point riot doesn't even know what they are doing.

Nah, fuck the old Akali. New Akali is where the shit's at. Old Akali sucks bro!

I know but they just keep on nerfing this akali when she is not even at a 50% winrate.

She did need a rework, she was in a similar place as Irelia. Pre-rework she was extremely stat check and didn't have much counter play in low elo.

Buckeye20021 votes

so what, that's what she was for....it was a champ that would allow you to win off fundamentals...every champ doesnt need to be super complex, there are 130 champs......

and counter play, when are they going to increase fizz e Cd or ekko ult cd for counter play

And it's funny to see people claim they could do better, but most all of us don't even have the knowledge that goes into designing and balancing these things properly.

They do what they do cause they've been at it for years. Sure some of it's not perfect but I'm sure it's far better than what someone could do if they just walking in off the street.

True but are nerfing akali when she is in a bad start sounds good? Sounds like riot hired some intern to work on it.

Riot doesn't even know what they are doing with akali. She is not really good ath the moment and they decided to nerf her. Think before you write pls.

Lol. Says the one that might want to do that first, especially when you've responded with two different responses at a massive amount of time apart. She can actually be very good in the right hands.

She isn’t fixable. It doesn’t matter how low her numbers are when her re stealth cooldown is shorter than an auto attack animation.

Auto attacks can still hit when shes stealthed, restealth doesn't cancel them anymore.

You watched a video where a streamer went over changes that are still a work in progress. The changes aren't tuned yet. Hold your horses.

Maybe but they did confirm it. I was just angry when akali was getting nerfed again.

They didn't confirm it, because RiotRepertoire just posted another set of updated changes to his Twitter today.

These changes are a huge buff to Akali, you just jumped on the bandwagon and blindly followed the words of a streamer.

They just need to give a goddamn cooldown on his Q, because as it stands now, it's endless manaless poke, which also procs her passive. This gives her a lot of dps. It can be a low cooldown, they may also reduce its energy cost but hell, just 1.5 seconds is too low. It's a skill that is impossible to dodge for melee champs, it means that everytime you go for a minion, you eat that Q and probably her passive too

It was fair because akali's energy goes down rather quick so that 1.5 sec CD is good for her.

I don't know why you think Certainly T should still be designing champions.

Certainly T created one of the most annoying champs. Riot designs champs which is fun but is versing a darius or yasuo fun?

revert is highly needed

You bumped a 5-day old post with bad information because it fits your narrative.

For shame.
