Can we talk about Corki?

Corki is the champion with the biggest fall from grace I've seen in the history of the game. He went from being the most contested champion at every single worlds to the least banned, lowest winrate and 4th lowest play rate in the game. And he's not even one of those extremely hard champions that require alot of skill. He is an absolute joke of a champion at the moment. Riot, it's time to undo the nerf on his ult where CD doesn't apply to his ult. It's a useless stat because of it and destroys build diversity ( R.I.P. AP Corki, I still miss you). I know you are planning a rework for him but that's going to be in 2-3 years. Please give him his CDR back for the meantime at the very least.

My only personal experience with Corki EVER is in Aram, so I know it doesn't matter that much but

I enjoy getting him because whenever I do, he's pretty dominant.

Corki just doesn't compare to meta mid laners right now. Everyone blows everyone up so fast... Corki needs a few rotations or IE procs to kill someone. That being said he at least showed up at worlds, so there is hope!

Corki is pretty bad in midlane against one-skillshot-and-you-die CC mages, also pretty shit against assassins if they know what they are doing ..

But on the other hand he has very good snowball potential with Triforce plus crit items, and gamechanging teamfight CC with the package. I really enjoy playing him as ADC when I can work with an aggressive support (hes kind of like Lucian in that regard) or midlane by roaming with package.

I would say the biggest potential buffs I could envision would be:

remove displacement on the package. If I use it on top of enemies I want them to get that 90% slow and DOT. Knocking them aside is counterproductive (but is that the point?)
increase rocket base damage and make scaling more linear. Currently he gets 25% more AD scaling for each level in ult which is where most of the damage comes from. But prior to level 11 those rockets barely tickle, they deal like 60 damage. Its a bad feeling when I land like 6 skillshots then the enemy lands one and it deals the same amount of damage. I get that theyre supposed to be triforce procs, but at least make the standalone damage slighly less laughable

I dont like champion desing itself. His Q is absolutely useless skill. It should be reworked like ezreals W. There shouldnt be champions with useless skills, thats bad for the game design not even balance issue.
