Petition: Save Kennen, Akali, and Lisandra

Not only is the price of Zhonyas going up by 200 gold but its armor is decreased by 5 and it now only gives 80 ap. Akali, Lissandra, Kennen, and Kassadin all have Zhonyas as a core item. They are all very underwhelming and/or underated in the top and mid lane for most of this season and they are the ones most affected by the nerfs. The meta mid champions like yasuo, lux, veigar, and arhi don't need it(except as a counter to some matchups). Moreover adcs are all getting big buffs and items, and Ad top lane fighters are dominating in lcs and soloquene. Nerfing Zonyas does't impact the meta picks as much as hurting the champs who aren't played and are often on the weaker side of the matchup in the first place. I love the game that you guys have made and think the marksmen rework is going to be great , I just just don't think this will have the intended results. I would love to see a reply just to explain your veiwpoint.:)

edit:If you agree please upvote so riot will see this:) edit2: I understand that some people find zhonyas annoying, however, the stasis effect remains unchanged. And regardless, the end goal of the game should be balance, not people playing things just because they are op and not being able to play some other champs because they are bad.

I love HG rush on Akali. I really hope the changes don't go through =/ I don't want to start rushing Rylais again.

Zhonyas has needed nerfs since forever.
