Can Ahri get a meaningful nerf?

Right now the only reason I can think of why she hasn't been nerfed yet is because Riot doesn't want the low elo Ahri fangirls on the boards to cry even more. The champion has exactly 0 weaknesses and 0 counterplay, Ahri mains average like 2 deaths per game on her which is absolutely ridiculous for how much dmg (yes she has damage, her bases and scalings may be average only but she has ALOT of sustained dmg) and utility she has.

When was the last time anyone had fun while playing vs this ugly freelo champion?

Ahri already got a big nerf to good Ahri players a few patches ago. Removing the charm's dash interrupt was huge.

Is she overbearing in lane: No

Is she really safe: Yes

If she plays safe, can she easily kill any enemy: No

:???????:

Well, I can't deny this...

But you can't prove this.

The champion has exactly 0 weaknesses and 0 counterplay,

She must dive enemies to get full damage output. And is usually built squishy.

No counterplay I have to run with (the only counterplay is 'dodge' and 'take good fights')-- but not every single champion has counterplay present.

Ahri mains average like 2 deaths per game on her

However, if she plays in this way, she is unable to get out her damage unless she plays nigh-perfectly.

which is absolutely ridiculous for how much dmg

However, to get that damage, she has to play unsafe.

(yes she has damage, her bases and scalings may be average only but she has ALOT of sustained dmg)

Yes. If you don't dodge. I've never found her skills too hard to dodge... but I play her a lot so I probably just have a good feel for it. :3

Ahri got a meaningful nerf when her dash interupt was removed. The fact that ahri mains know how to not die does not make her broken, she also dies on average 5.47 times per game, which is higher than leblanc, xerath, and orianna, all who also have high damage.

Take her to lategame. Much like most assassins, she relies heavily on picks to be relevant once everyone gets a few items, and is only really usable for her charm post-25mins.

I used to play malzahar and shit on her completely.

Used...
