I'm hoping assassins get major buffs soon
I think the community forgot just how utterly cancer it is to play against point and click instant assassins that kill you in the blink of an eye.
only then will people appreciate Zed.

Assassin rework will give complete kit reworks and make them high skill cap champions like 
, I honestly can't wait.
i feel u man.
has so much point click, oh man. Her entire kit is point click.
Wait.
Hey, you have lung cancer. That's cool. Did you know if you get brain, stomach, prostate, colon, and skin cancer, lung cancer doesn't seem so bad. Maybe you should get all those cancers too to really appreciate that lung cancer.
i really think doesnt need a rework. even being the oldest of the class, its funny that shes one of the better designed assassins.
i think what a lot of assassins including are missing is, the requirement of high commitment to their assassination attempts. for example kat can jump on a low health target and try to assassinate him. but if anything happens, like she gets interrupted, her target gets a shield, or a heal or doesnt die for another reason, shunpo doesnt reset and her way out is blocked off. which leaves her in a potentially vulnerable spot.
this creates counterplay, while rewarding successful assassinations.
i think all assassins ability to jump in and back out of a fight should rely on them actually killing their intended targets.
if anyone needs a rework its 
and possibly 
. they violate this idea in every possible way. there is either no risk in leblancs case or little risk if they arent successful in their ranged point and click assassinations. leblanc just hits w, teleports far out of range and can try again later. kassadin builds tanky enough that he can survive the 3 seconds until his ult is back up and he can jump away over a wall.
breaks this too in a certain way. its true, that he is one of the better designed assassins overall. his main issues are not with his teamfighting and the way he assassinates enemies, but with his ranged lane bullying and his ability to waveclear which makes him a rather safe pick, when behind and incredibly strong when ahead.
but other than that, his assassination attempts dont take the same level of commitment as kat for example. he can go in on an enemy and try to kill him. if hes successful or not, he has the ability to jump back out of the wight fight his w shadow or reactivating his ult. its not quite as bad as leblanc, sicne he doesnt have ranged point and click abilities on top of it. but its still an issue imo.
