0-2 "fed" akali btw.

How in the world did NOBODY in the design team (i know very well champs arent made/reworked by only 1 person) see this and think there MIGHT be a PROBLEM with the champ design? What in the world, how can this even go live.

We just skim over the fact that LB missed damn near everything and Akali didn't. We also skim over the fact that LB COULD HAVE JUST FLASHED AWAY but instead ports herself right in front of Akali to be hit some more.

And why are you sympathizing with the fact that it took like 15 seconds of play for LeBlanc to die to an assassin's tower dive when LB messed up literally everything? You wanna know how long it takes for LeBlanc to kill you when you mess up? Basically a 1/100th of that time.

Just your average CertaintlyT apologists on boards and/or akali mains that dont want the no counterplay broken champ to be fixed.

Never mind the design abomination, never mind the facta feeding akali is tower diving for 10 seconds without taking damage.

Nobody knows, but at least she is permabanned and I can dodge if she should get picked until she finally gets zoe'd.

Honestly, that champ was already shitty af because of her stupid invisibility. Riot: Let's make her also invisible under the enemy tower so she doesn't even have to give a single fuck about anything!

At this rate I would be glad if Riot would stop reworking and releasing new champs before this game gets completely CertainlyT'ed

40 second clip. Akali spent 12 of those seconds untargetable

i played a fiora game vs an akali top, 0-2-0 and she could kill me in 4 shots (without her ult) and if she use her shroud, i lose my ult since her stealt is longer than it

The LB is 1/2, with no defensive items and barely an AP at all. Her most damaging item there was the goddamned corrupting potion.

Can't see the Akali's items, because you so "accidentally" forgot to list them, but I'm assuming it's a item 3145 and part of item 3144. That's a lot more damage than a item 1052, item 3802, and a item 1082 with zero stacks.

Clip also won't even play for me (legit, get something better than Twitch clips for this shit please, so that we can actually analyze it), but I'm going to assume from what I can see that the LB didn't land shit except maybe her Q, and didn't dodge shit properly.

This isn't Akali being broken or anything, this is the LB playing like a drunken fish.

And, of course, Akali being too strong is a numerical issue, not a design issue. LB legit just has to land her fucking E and she'll know right where Akali is. It's easy to do, honestly: wait for her to pop up, then just fucking press E at her. Either Akali loses her all-in potential by using E to dodge it (which would require great reflexes anyways), or you've basically gotten a free fucking kill.

I can see the clip. here is the break down. It starts with akali coming out of Shroud to land a Q max range, and pop electrocute on LB. LB was already at lower hp and falls down to 414 hp. LB Loses passive, LB has 2 stacks of item 2033 and uses them. LB is currently on CD for E R and passive. E+R being on cd at start of clip. Lb backs off gets some hp back. Uses W for a minion, throws a lone Q at Akali with no follow up, gets some minion aggro and reactivates W.

Akali waits out CDs. Akali uses E backwards to get into range to R on LB. Then casts W soon as shes out of animation to drop tower aggro. LB has regenerated up to 752 HP. LB uses W to dodge the Akali and is now safely outside of shroud and near her tier 2 tower. LB casts E, LB appears to be confused as she casts it at her W image rather then the Akali player and completely wiffs it. LB current CD. ER and W is waiting to be recasts, LB move up to shroud and moves slightly into jungle pathing, walking towards the shroud and away from her tier 2 tower, positioning near jungle rather then her t2 tower that would actually protect her.

Next Akali lands a max range Q. 152 damage. After being hit by that LB pops her W to return To the dead center of the shroud AHAHAHAHAHAHA. Note LB passive, W, E, R are all on CD. Akali has 2nd cast of R, ignite, Passive triggered, and Q in a few seconds when it comes off CD. Tower hits Akali once, LB casts her Q. Akali uses empowered auto then 2nd cast of her R. 158 damage from the auto, 240 from the 2nd cast of R, 89 from Electrocute. Tower gets 1 more hit in. LB Flashes... At jungle rather then tier 2. The akali who was retreating sees this and rushes LB. her Passive + akali shroud is a straight line to her given the direction LB flashed. Lb trys to flee, gets close to WCD, but owing to the MS boost akali gets from shroud and passive she gets ignited. LB then trys to turn and burn the Akali with a QW, dies befor W lands.

Akali walks away with 378 hp. In the jungle because that's where the LB ran.

TLDR. Akali has near max hp almost the entire clip. Lb gets 3 casts of Q off, in the30 second clip, She gets 0 secondary triggers. NO R, no passive, misses all damage from W, Wiffs E, positions badly around shroud the entire time.

Basically the Tower almost solos Akali and LB played the entire clip poorly.

OP calls the Akali a feeder. 0-2-2 The enemy LB 1-2-1 same KDA. There is less then 5 cs gap between the two. Akalis team vs LB team? 14 vs 4

At no point did LB impress me, or did I feel a high # of other champions would have been unable to net a kill despite there being a tower up. Zed Fizz Lux Ziggs Xerath Ahri for example all would murder her if she misplayed around their key ability's the same way she misplayed this akali. Most of them would take less tower damage doing it too.

Folks are welcome to call me biased but I'm just not impressed by a LB who only lands half damage Qs and repositions INTO danger with their W.

Edit. The Akali build was item 3145 item 1082 (1 stack prior to kill) item 1054 item 1036 item 1001 item 2033
