Ahri just feels very unrewarding to play atm

You can hit most of your skillshots and you'll get outdamaged by like every mid laner in the game, and if you miss charm/q you're basically a minion, a syndra can miss every spell but as long as she hits ult and 1 q she'll outdamage your whole kit with you HITTING EVERYTHING.

it gets even worse if you compare her to the actual top mid laners like azir or lucian/corki atm, all those champs can just use 1 spell and auto attack and outdamage her whole kit.

She doesnt have enough utility to be useful without doing damage (charm the only thing shes good for and even then, with one qss she has 0 cc left), her ratios need to go up.

ahri finally gets to a normal 50% winrate like most midlaners "pls buff now she's unplayable"

It's more that she needs a power shift Overall she's balanced but she trades so much damage for safety it makes her feel like a wet blanket at times Losing Q's MS boost in exchange for more damage would be nice considering that's how she originally was once upon a time

forgetting that Q movement speed is what made her the best mid laner in the game

That aside ahri doesnt feel great to play at all. even when im ahead i feel like ive had no impact and im only there to set up my team and Deal pesudo DPS.

its not a matter of winrate, its a matter of impact and feedback, which ahri is lack luster in. but buffering her for the sake of that alone is a bad idea.

ahri lacks a " high"

zed has his ult

yasuo has his Dashes

Tristana has her explosives and jump

Ahri doesnt have anything that makes me feel like its go time, her ult only serves as a 3 charge flash and if you're playing ahri correctly its mostly used defensively.

it's not that she's unplayable.

It's like I've said before, maxing E second is more valuable than maxing W second. Your damage and assassination capabilities are so underwhelming, especially in this meta, that you're basically a gimped CC bot in most cases. I can win all I want it's not enjoyable and my impact feels minimal, because the game can easily be won while I'm feeding but I can't pick up the slack for a shit jungler, top, or adc.

Welcome to the adc meta mate, it doesn't matter if you're feeding or not, it just matters that your adc is fed.

Again, I can't pick up the slack for a shit jungler or top either. If everyone is equal 110 cs at 15 except I'm 3/0 on the 0/3 mid and my top is 0/3 to their 3/0 top, I can't be as impactful because most of Ahri's power is specced into safety rather than anything vaguely useful outside of Silver. It's obnoxious.
