I hope that Lulu does not get "Kha'Zix-ed"
Remember when
mid/top was a thing?
However he was a very strong jungler, and thus a contested pick at competitive battles. And due to this reason, Riot kept nerfing him around his jungle potential, and this affected his laning potential, to the point that he is not a strong laner anymore. I still use lane Kha'Zix but that's only because I like him and I hate jungle, also I am accustomed to what to do in a lane. However I recognize that Kha'Zix is no longer a strong pick for mid/top lane anymore, and is barely viable at the jungle.
I fear that the same thing will happen to
- She was designed to be a support, but thanks to her potential at mid/top lane, she received many nerfs in the past - but even with those nerfs, she is STILL a contested pick at the Worlds and is still a strong pick for top/mid lane. As long as she can do what she can currently do, she will always be strong.
My fear is that they invalidate her viability for top/mid lane to make her good as a support only - or the reverse. I honestly play her more as a solo laner because I hate support too, but I know that there are people who like to play her as a support more than as a solo laner, and I know that those people would not like to have Lulu forced to be balanced around her solo laning potential and thus, killing her support potential - just like myself, and many players, were upset to see Kha'Zix being balanced just around his jungle potential, without taking into consideration that he could also be a solo laner.
