How is Rek'Sai these days?

How is Rek'Sai in solo queue these days? I've had enough of the flamers whenever I try to do a sated jungler, and I know I enjoyed her when she was first released. See her a lot in competitive play. She good for climbing and carrying if needed?

I have a 62% winrate on her in ranked. I think she is a great champion to carry games in ranked currently as long as you build her bruiser. Her 100 fury bite is a great answer to all the tanks nowadays and is what I feel helps her compete as a viable jungler currently.

what is your average full build? may I ask what your runes and masteries are for her?

so I played a game with her and definitely enjoyed myself and kinda surprised how much damage she does with just cinderhulk and cleaver. Went 4/1/24

http://na.op.gg/summoner/userName=PuffyP My runes and masteries are in there. I go warrior with stalkers almost always, and will go lucidity boots for my boots. I go titanic and steraks for damage, and will get a deadmans and spirit visage for tankiness. I swap out the warrior for black cleaver in late game and swap my boots for tabis or mercs. This is my general build and will get different situational items as well, like randuins and zz'rot.

mine that I made up was fairly similar other then I chose AS quints x2 and 1 AD instead of a movement and CD (dont work CD quints yet) I generally run MR glyphs if there is AP on their team, if not then all CD glyphs (or that's what I have been doing)

But I do like your mastery set up with the 6/6/18

She is kinda weak right now...she received some nerfs in the previous patches. Also, devourer got nerfed so I wont recommend to play her with devourer. She is a jungler with good presence. I feel like she can carry hard just if she is very ahead. Otherwise, she feels weak. When Rek'sai was released she has insane damage and damage scalling, especially on her E. Now you got a lot of champions that can do way better than her. To carry with her is kinda hard. Her only cc is a knock up, she isnt very good in teamfights. Back in season 5, she was a trully beast, now she feels more like a secondary support, since the recommended build is a tanky build that contains items like item 3190 . That's just my opinion, feel free to search for some Rek'Sai mains, maybe it will prove that I am wrong.

yeah I know she got nerfed heavily since release and I don't want to build her pure tank as I feel my chance of carrying a game by myself with no damage is slim (though I could be wrong)

she still has a good early game pressure. Nice gap closer, nice cc, decent damage. If your good early game and can exploit it, then yea rek is good. If not then no probably not

ganks were fairly easy to pull off but I also don't remember when I used to play her, it showing the pop up area. Did they just add it or make it more visable?

My worry is if I get behind is she going to be a champ that I can turn around a game with

i always use quick cast, except for first time i play a champ i dont really look at the length of abilities so i dont remember, and no not really. Rek isnt really a late game champ. She has huge early game pressure, late game you basically just tank
