Why is Rengar (and sorta Kha) still allowed to kill you in .5 seconds?

Why do assassins like fizz, leblanc, zed (even though i fucking hate him) and kat have to set up their damage, but rengar and kha gets to jump in, press one button and delete you in less than a second?

Sure, Rengar has "counterplay" now, but why does he still delete u in less than a second? Wasn't the whole point to increase kill time?

I don't even think they tried to give Kha a delay in his damage. They gave him more IMO and he still get's CD refunded with evolve Q.

Rengar is just a fucking mess and I'm honestly surprised that shit made it through PBE.

"Yeah we'll make his Q a 2-hit skill shot now, but then we'll buff it's damage through the fucking ceiling and give him a free AD deathcap by killing 5 unique champions. 5 UNIQUE CHAMPIONS. VERY DIFFICULT ONLY CHALLENGER LEVEL RENGAR OTPS CAN PULL THAT OFF."

Don't even get me started on that free crit he gets. Slap an IE on that with his massive passive steroid, he can essentially get off the same ult-hop burst that he could before. Just now it scales better. At least Talon has to strategically use his E to get into meelee range. And Talon still has less damage than Rengar.

Oh yeah, did I mention he can build tank/bruiser now? Didn't Riot learn from bruiser Fizz and tank Ekko already? I know it's pre-season, but comon this is honestly getting old and becoming common sense stuff.

Kha no longer gets any damage stats added to his Q on upgrade, his combo is more drawn out because it needs his passive auto to do a substantial amount.

Or you know, use CDR like most people do. The CD on Q is literally 4 seconds.

New or old k6, you should be auto-ing for that passive either way. Saying rework k6 needs to auto-passive is redundant because old k6 had to do that anyway. They arguably gave him more passive procs for free with evolve R. In any case I don't care as much about k6 as I do about Rengar. At least tank Kha Zix isn't a thing lol

Less than a second isn't an issue.

Less than 0.25 was.

You think he cant do that now? So why do other assassins have to wait 1.5-3sec delay to do damage? It's funny because all the AD assassins can instakill you while AP needs to wait. Riot loves AD

Apparently the counterplay is use all your stuns and aimlessly press them as usual. (Morg,Lux,Zyra)

Or maybe you can you know, waste gold on wards that won't last 30 seconds because the enemy will take it instead of using it for stuff that would keep you safe from the 4 other champions. (Unless you're playing one for all)
