What do you think is the biggest nerf to a champion in a single patch?

(Reworks don't count)

I think it was 4.9 kha zix. Riot literally stabbed him, gunned him down, beheaded him, and then stabbed him again before burning him.

Riftcrawl Kassadin. 1s delay on Veigar stun combined with AP ratio nerfs Elise+Evelynn guttings Soraka and Lulu were nerfed reeeeally hard when they were good enough to actually dominate top lane. Alistar's 'tiny nerf' basically took him completely out of viability outside of support. AP Fizz being gutted followed by them now gutting AD Fizz like they just want to kill the fish completely.

Warwick going from "lol I can 1v5 at level 11" to "lol I am useless until level 16" was kinda crazy. Top/Mid Lane Warwick was my main season 4 so it was especially annoying that they nerfed him all over the place =[

The nerf to literally every single one of Azir's skills, which dumpstered him.

It's called exaggeration, and we all do it! But no, his nerfs were pretty severe:

Patch 5.3 Q - Conquering Sands BASE DAMAGE 75/105/135/165/195 magic damage ⇒ 65/85/105/125/145 magic damage W - Arise! SOLDIER STAB RANGE ~400 ⇒ ~325 (we're marking them as approximate values because they get very complicated) TOWER BOMB DAMAGE The tooltip values were incorrectly saying +0.6 ability power (it's actually 0.7). 90 + (15 x level) (0.7 ability power) ⇒ 50 + (10 x level) (0.4 ability power)

38% winrate after the patch
