Akali has no counterplay

Tenoz·Nov 13, 2016·4 votes·2,136 views

First off sorry if this is the wrong board but it seemed to fit. With the changes made to assassins it was clear riot was trying to prevent such hard snowballing and also to prevent champions that can snowball from falling too behind when shutdown. With the stealth changes there currently is no counter play for invisibility. So far Akali seems the worst in this regard, if someone picks Akali you basically need to go Annie because her E stun covers the entire stealth field, or Lee for his E (I think it makes invisibility visible). Other than that there are no items. I don't mean this to sound like a rant because its not I just ban her 100% now but its clear the rework needs a rework.

Just wait for Akali to step out of it or wait for it to go away and then proceed to smash her shit in because he is significantly weaker now

About 1/3rd at least. To be clear, I'm not saying they all COUNTER her. I'm saying they all have abilities that will be able to do something against her ult (think team fight). Which means that there IS counter play.

She has no counterplay post rework. She is either gonna suck or she's gonna be useless...

Here's the conterplay to Akali at current. Ignore her and kill her team, she actually does nothing in fights, no damage, no durability, no utility and no CC. She's a pathetic champion.
