you guys made kalista waaaay too strong. i only played a game as her and i know she's broken as hell. how did riot not see this? free ward on her w WITH a massive %health magic damage(in comparison gnar's w at max rank does 14, kalista's at rank 1 does 12%). and no. its not hard to get your supp to aa the enemy laner. sorry. she can dash on her AA's. this wouldn't be a problem if she didn't also get to dash on her Q(which has a really high ad scaling ratio), and can permastack her rends via q aa e q aa aa aa aa(all with dashes in them). her ult is a get out of jail free card for her support if he gets into a stupid fight and kalista is around. aside from that nothing really wrongn with the ult. her base attack speed is massive. i really think riots trying to enforce a new meta in the pros so that they don't have to nerf their exciting fun champs (lucian, trist, lee) any more than they already have.

Ah however you are forgetting a lot of things.

She is immobile while attacking.(she can't cancel animation) Gives HUGE counter play right here.(at least till max att spd.)
She requires a second person both for her ult and for her % damage.
She has very low base damage.
Her vision ability is avoidable with careful positioning. It's vision range is less then a champions so you know it is there and change pathing.
Her poke doesn't go through minions unless it kills the first.
Her only burst ability requires several aa to build it's damage. (think twich without the stealth to get close enough to land several aa's.)

Kalista while a strong champion is not even close to OP.

I am a baddie and I still see how she has massive counterplay put into her kit. If you snowball her yes she will wreck you and become almost untouchable. But then again so does vayne.

Lucian wasn't nerfed, he was changed into a Champion that didn't do everything (The funny thing is that he became more annoying after his "nerfs") Tristana's early game was too safe for the bullshit lategame she had, and Lee Sin is still Lee Sin. As long as you're mechanically good at him, he's pretty damn strong. Having to play against somebody who is is like pulling teeth

Strong, but I don't think too strong. She lacks any significant steroid in her kit which means there are many ADC that will out scale her. If anything, I expect she may see a small range nerf in the near future, make her more reliant on Q and mobility but making her more susceptible to higher ranged ADC'.
