Malzahar has a 1% play rate mid

Then show me the clip, if that's true it's not Tahm's fault its a glitch, same can be said of any skillshot being thrown out '90 degrees the wrong way'.

Are you kidding? Ahri's Q has one of the most infuriating hitboxes in the game. If you're anywhere near the end of the hitbox it does both procs of damage instantly and there's nothing you can do about it. Its wide and goes through minions as well, which Tahm's doesn't.

If Tahm didn't have his passive damage he'd be one of the most useless champions in the game and would need massive buffs to his base AD and Q and W damage. The only reason he can even go top is because he can duel other champions in a melee fight.

Actually, not to be overly pedantic, but her rework was in 4.10, 4.11 was a set of buffs to her, like 50 more range on her w, 33.33% more width on her Q projectile, 10% more movement speed towards hunted targets, etc

The huge, huuuuuuuuge problem the update gave her was giving her double her previous movement speed steroid and giving another condition to trigger it, a better, lower cooldown, longer ranged resourcesless untargeted dash, with not one, but two different reset mechanic that then also became a 700 (750 post 4.11) range targetted gapcloser on a champion whose gapcloser you could previously juke or avoid. Oh, and that gapcloser, escape? It is now available at level 1 (most Nids in that time period, especially top started w first) so now Nid entirely lost one of the few weakness she had in that she now was slipery and hyper mobile, for free, for the entire game, instead of having an abusable early game which hyper mobile champions should have imo.

They massively boosted her mobility, greatly increased the range of her options, then added even more shit for her opponents to have to dodge and avoid, like making her traps into a 20%+ current hp shred (as well as re-classifying it as single target for purposes of rylai's and liandry's so AP Nid started actually dumstering bruisers and tanks with what used to be primarily a vision tool) oh, and it also now triggers a 700 range gapcloser on to your face, plus resets some of her other cooldowns.

This rework was the basis of the destruction of the character that was Nidalee. Notice how I never mentioned in that comment anything about the jungle? That's because I never made any claim about her jungling, and I know her patch history, apparently better than you, despite your assumptions to the contrary. With all the design problems introduced with this rework, Nid was a fundamentally busted laner that was not fun or really interactive in any way, while being far too safe, versatile and seemingly always having a response to everything her opponents could do. Felt great as a Nid player, but was absolute shit to play against-- I reffer to this as Lee Sin syndrome, see also Yasuo. They shoehorned her into the jungle because of her stupid, broken kit due to this rework, but it took them a while of trying and failing to balance it first. I would much rather have this Nid fight against monsters half the game than have some poor, unlucky soul have to lane against that monstrosity.
