Revert Akali

I have thought about this a lot. I really enjoy the new Akali, maybe slightly more than the old Akali, but she is in such an unhealthy state and she is too unhealthy for this game. I think her visuals should, of course, stay, because those were needed, but she really was not in need of a kit update. If anything keep her current passive and Q, but revert the changes to shroud (besides the visuals), remove her new E and make it her old E and remove her current ult and revert it back w/ maybe a tad more damage. Her old passive and Q were both outdated, so the removal of those are justified.

the old akali was so good and our playerbase loved it, she already had an amazing kit and the only thing we wanted was a visual update. I'm not saying that I don't like the new akali, don't get me wrong, she's op and good and everything but its hard to play akali in low elo and alot harder to carry and she synergizes better in higher elo because everyone knows what they are doing, but she is banned almost 70% of the time. if she were to be reverted, it would do everyone a favor because it is a win win situation for everyone.

I really would love to see akali being reverted, the fact that she is banned every single game, while not even being that strong feels really bad.I used to main akali, but i dont even get to play her anymore.

Old Akali was much more unhealthy to the game , she was in need to be nerfed , but they didn't because she had a small player base , Old Akali was much stronger than the new one , of course she had times where she was useless , she was an unhealthy/out dated design and had much more burst on lower cool downs than the new one

The only ones who want to revert her are the players who don’t know how to play against her in the mid lane. I’m an Akali main, so of course I know her cooldowns and when it’s okay to go in, when it’s not okay to go in. Every time someone picks her mid, I pick my other champs and I DESTROY her. I’m a diamond player and she’s easy to play against. She does not need a revert. You need to know how to play against her.

I could see a partial revert working. New passive kept, new q moved to e, old q only has first part since second part is now her passive which also works with e. Old ult is back but does not apply her passive or proc it. Old shroud which does not hide her from turrets but still blocks pink wards. Honestly after the buffs after reckless nerfed her Akali was likely in her healthiest state ever having all abilities reliable, her kill time was slowed down a bit but she was also not banned more than 10% of the games either meaning people did not see her as a annoying or OP enough to ban most games.

I agree, i enjoy playing both unreworked Akali and reworked Akali. But i miss old akali cause i had more than 65% win rate as i remember #MAKEAKALIGREATAGAIN Akali
