Riot, You Said Akali Will Recieve Changes Not Nerfs

You said you have changes planned for Akali in 10.3. I looked at these changes and all I saw was straight nerfs. If she is going to be revealed in her shroud so easily AND have a decaying movement speed for only 2 secs, then what's the point of shroud?

Her R1 got changed to target champions but R1 does absolutely nothing. Her R2 is even worst since the travel speed is severly reduced. So you are saying that now I have to dash to a champion only to get stunned and die, then wait 3 mins to do it again?

I never stopped playing Akali even when she got nerfed to the ground in 9.3 and I was hoping for more thoughtful Akali changes after worlds. But this is going to drop her to %30 or less winrate. Akali is officially dead in 10.3. I suggest these changes stay on PBE for a very long testing period until you can get it right with feedback.

If she is going to be revealed in her shroud so easily

Because hitting a CC on a champion that is invisible, has 4 dashes and a lot of ms boosts is "so easy"

have a decaying movement speed for only 2 secs

And 4 dashes, and 2 ms boosts on any spell she hits. Why should she even get a ms boost on her W?

Her R1 got changed to target champions but R1 does absolutely nothing

Except that its a dash, and it procs her passive

Her R2 is even worst since the travel speed is severly reduced.

So its actually possible to dodge?

sorry to tell you but the rework is a giant failure and riot just refuses to revert it and rework her again. the current akali will never be in a state that is enjoyable. so yeah. you just gotta accept that

I think it's just generally shitty to play a game with point and click champions.

I think point and clicking is generally not fun, boring, offers no opportunity for skill nor counterplay.

But eh. I guess a predictable R on Akali's ult will make things fun.
