Kayle needs some much needed attention! She feels awful to play right now. Some suggested changes.
Dear Riot, A heartfelt/discontent message from a Kayle Fan. A champion so simple in design with ability for players at every rank to play. You've pretty much taken everything that was fun out of her kit out of it. You've pretty much gutted every single aspect of her kit. She's barely viable in the jungle and support roles because there's always someone better at what she does. The only significant tool kayle has is her ult and even then her whole kit is still extremely cool-down and attack speed reliant that she can't do anything right. Her build path is super visible and the counterplay she has against her is extremely overwhelming. You know what that counterplay is? It's binary numbers. Can't do enough damage. Can't poke/siege. Can't wave clear without it being hellishly item dependent. Can't even get enough damage amp off to be relevant Can't live long enough in a fight to be relevant. Unless the whole team focuses your ult target during that small duration. Not really good at any stage in the game.
I honestly hate playing this champion now. The worst part is I own almost all of her skins. A champion that really had me fall in love with the game is no longer viable because you're ignoring her. Seems to me like you simply don't want her in the meta. You don't want her to be good again. I've heard your representatives time and again about how she used to be good at everything. Well you know what? She pretty much sucks at everything and its frustrating as hell when you try to play her.
Make Q into a skillshot/AOE cast.
Make W better give it more flat healing. Another idea give it a secondary effect. One for hitting enemies. Another skillshot perhaps? Another way to apply her passive?
Honestly an Idea you guys have barely touched is tinkering with heal mechanics! Making a heal into a skillshot/ AOE cast would add a lot of depth and take away some of that binary nature of the concept. The closest you've really gotten is
's Ultimate. Frankly its one of the god damm coolest abilities in the game and there are way's to play around/against it.
Right now the only way to apply heals is through point and click or doing damage through spellvamp and lifesteal.
It'd be nice to feel like kayle could actually duel people reliably again. Pump numbers slowly back into E so it doesn't become overwhelming. This and her ultimate are the identity of her kit, so really they just need to feel like they can have an impact. Give her ult an enemy cast ability as well. It just isn't enough to use it on yoloq players who are often undeserving and scrutinize you for every mistake and can't wait till the end of the game to let you know what you did wrong. Even if you don't take any of these ideas listed above into consideration, giving her back some of that Atk Speed per level would significantly help her quality of life. That was pretty much what Olafed her.
Honestly there's so much you can do with this champ. Please don't continue to ignore her. She's needed love for a very long time! Please upvote! I want these ideas to be noticed =D
