Is Akali Gonna Be Nerfed ???

Hey, I've been seeing lots of people saying that Akali is really broken. I just started playing League and play Akali, but besides the overpowerness of Shroud, is there anything that's too strong about it? I honestly think that Shroud might be too strong concerning that it can't be targeted at all when she's in, but you can damage her if your a mage with spells and once she attacks she get revealed. I only think that the duration of Shroud should be lowered after the "turrets can't see you update.&qu The range of Q is also limited and E can be interrupted by minions Tell me what you guys think. (Here's what I think) If Akali's Shroud's duration is shortened to like 3.5 sec, I feel like that's pretty fair but there's really nothing else too strong about her. Also since she was just recently remade, no one has a chance to find counters for Akali, wth no counters comes people thinking it's too OP. If anything is gonna be nerfed, it should be Shroud's duration time only really, all her other abilities are perfectly fine. People have also been stating that she can just spam abilities but she can inly use her Q twice before she has to wait for more "mana." Akali isn't actually that strong in some circumstances where she is stunned and takes tremendous damage from "supported" warriors. Maybe the healing part might also be too strong and can be reduced but that's the most they should nerf. Does she really need a nerf?

Unlikely. She's hard to play, but people also throw their brains out when playing against her and do stupid shit like walking into her shroud for no reason other than to lose 60% of their HP.

The problem with old Akali was that you were never supposed to fight her in her shroud. Riot decided to rework her by making her shroud fill the entire lane and grant true stealth.

That is pretty much why everyone bans her. Riot decides to rework a champion by making the most toxic part of their kit stronger. What?

The strongest part of her kit was the ultimate. Long range point and click low cooldown mobility that meant you could NEVER escape her, especially since she built Gunblade and Rylais too. They entirely removed that on demand mobility and locked it behind hitting her E and a 2+ minute cooldown on the ult. Shroud and E also have far higher cooldowns now. Even before the W stealth delay nerf this patch she could never dive towers without taking shots anyway, but now even slower players will get more auto attacks off on her.

You can't just nerf a champion that's complete trash in low elo, only high elo players can exploit her kit so unless you are in high elo you should not even complain. A nerf would make her trash in both tiers, her balance comes from her high skill gap.

High skill gap champions SHOULD be like Akali, complete trash until you play and learn that champion after hundreds of games (which is the amount high elo players invest) and climb the ladder until you find other players just as dedicated to their champions and stop you from climbing.

Just stop complaining about a champion that's clearly not OP at all. She is popular in all ranks so people will soon very well know how to counter and play against her, like every other popular ''OP'' champions like zed, yasuo, irelia, etc
