i saw that shes probably getting nerfed and remembered back to her release when everybody thought it was a bug that they could see her Tremor Sense. Would this be too harsh of a nerf if they actually went and did it?
GaleWinUnleashed3 votesI think the goal with Rek'Sai right now is to help reduce the disparity between her solo performance and her play in organized teams. Removing the ability for allies to see Tremor Sense seems to me like it would hurt organized teams much less than solo players, as the Rek'Sai could simultaneously ping the target and use voice comms to tell their team.
That might not be how it would turn out, but it's something to consider.
RiotMeddler4 votesYup, that's it in a nutshell.
During Rek'Sai's development we did play for quite a while with Rek'Sai only seeing the Tremor Sense pings. Ended up seeing a dramatic difference in effectiveness between organized and non organized tests.
World Ender1 votesI'm going to play the devil's advocate here, but what if you completely removed Tremor Sense? Ignoring everything about Rek'Sai's identity, how would it pan out if while burrowed she just had normal vision? Too much of her power budget is embedded in Tremor Sense and so in pro play she essentially turns into a glorified vision bot. But, by removing this vision crutch, Rek'Sai could possibly become a real champion again outside of pro play.
I'm not saying this is the solution, as Tremor Sense is a thematic that fits extremely well with Rek'Sai's theme; but at the same time it feels useless to play a statistically weak (as in weak stats and skills) champion when many other champions fit the role of a tank/bruiser and have better damage, CC, and mobility because their power budget is not gated by pro play.
BloodyTompon1 votesThat's one of the core parts of her kits. Sonar and tunnels are pretty much the two distinctive things about her. I imagine they'll nerf the range and/or sonar update rate.

I assume there's also an issue with information that only one player gets access to in a game like this.
CerealBoxOfDoom2 votesit wouldn't be but it would also kindof ruin rek'sai. I'd want my IP back
undesirable team1 votesYes, nerf the ult cool down tbh
King of Mongoose1 votesCertainly would make sense but would just lead to a bunch of spam pinging
Br4ndon1 votesShe would need huge buffs else where. Her passive and ult is what makes her insanely good in pro play. They use most of her power budget. Which is why shes been devolved into a knock up bot.
