Sorry, but this shit is getting fucking frustrating.

Akali My love, my life and my favorite characters in all of gaming. Although I like her old iteration, I still believe this iteration if fixed to akin to her AP assassin play style can be better, healthier and more balanced. But right now it is much more of a mess than her old iteration.

Nerfing Akali. I understand why, but where is the fixes, adjustments and small mechanical reworks? Her play style is an AP assassin, yet it is weaker than her AD bruiser, but her AD bruiser is OP. I'm not gonna list how to fix her, because they will probably never listen to me or anyone by now. But I'll list some champions that are OP for a short or long time and still not getting nerfed.

Vayne Buff to her tumble and these two god damn items item 3153 and item 3124. She is fucking broken, nerf her.

Riven Kit is already amazing, but what makes her OP isn't her kit alone. It is her synergy to Conqueror, item 3161, item 3812 and item 3071. Should've got nerfed, but no. Because other eastern regions don't seem to complain.

Kennen Synergies with Kleptomancy, because of his E attack speed buff after he deactivates his E. He procs it very well and very frequently and his core is incredibly cheap. If your going straight up damage you'd buy item 3152, item 3020, item 3165 and then you buy an expensive item like item 3089. So 2500 + 1100 + 3000 + 3600 = 10,200. This build is cheaper than most champions first items and he is probably by that time stronger by you by a huge margin. He got only adjustments, but no nerfs.

There are more, but this would be too lengthy. Akali community were waiting for a god damn adjustment to her kit and nerf her AD bruiser and buff her AP assassin, yet we got nerfs.

Here's how you fix it without having to give her a heal back (or if you want one, expect some passive damage to be lost for it unless you want a flat 10 hp heal per passive hit).** Start tuning her ratios to the AP side more than AD**. Just look at her passive ratio and her R ratio. Also probably buff her energy return on passive hit. The fact Q doesnt have that heal anymore just makes that cost a bit excessive. Nerf the base damage on R2 but up the ratio (i'd bump it to either 35% or 40%, 50% is out of the question).

nerf ratios nudge up bases increase base hp/armor/magic resists turn her healing thing that was removed into a taste of blood styled cooldown. it will make her into a ap brawler type instead of a one shotter that people complain about. oh yeah also tune down gunblade healing.

I completely agree with literally everything you say on all your posts and other's posts always. However I do SEVERELY lean towards a full revert to s7 version. Although I want that so bad, if that can't happen I do agree that riot must fix this version somehow. You and I share so many similar view points, I think we should communicate and make one huge discussion with tons of points to get a revert if your down. We can talk a bunch, do some studying on some current akali statistics, and I can find some website to make some kind of petition and make it go viral to show riot that the majority of the league community wants a revert. Let me know if your down to make something like that, I'd love to. Btw I think you've commented on one of my akali revert discussions before so we aren't complete strangers lmao.
