@Riot: Is it acceptable that Akali functionally only has 3 skills?

I have a question regarding the akali overhaul that was said to be released in the near future We agree that akali is in a pretty bad spot. Her kit is not nearly as cool/deep as it could be and playing against akali when she is strong is quite frustrating when you feel like there is nothing that you could have done to save yourself against her. We're in the early stages of some (think fiora ish scope) work on her gameplay with a few goals in mind.

Overhaul and upgrade that W shroud - remove the hard counter issues with pink wards in favor of more generally accessible play, and explore cool new possibilitys for how this spell could benefit her team in a unique way Create a much more clear success path for akali that gives both an akali that is behind or an opponent vs a fed akali some way to turn the fight in their favor Amp up cool factor overall - there are some pretty bland spells in there that we can just redo for much more flexible and fun gameplay Preserve the akali core - You like dashes? You like big burst damage? You like coming in and out of a smoky shroud? Dual scalings? we want to hit on all of these things that we think akali players hold close to their hearts right now. Just wanted to expose some of our thinking on akali to have a discussion. Keep in mind that we are early on her design work so dont expect these changes to hit live in the near future, but we are getting started on what we think is a very needed update.

I was wondering when this will comeout? cause it is very annoying when akalis shoroud gets hard cced
