Akali Nerfs Idea

I still believe Akali is an OP champion after her nerfs, and I had a thought on how to balance her without gutting her. Take off one of her three ult charges, but make the cooldown on the charges shorter. This way she can no longer burn Ezreals E, Flash, and Heal and still kill him. She'd still reset and be able to go from one target to the next the same way but wouldn't be an absolutely unstoppable force for squishies. Just the same with two dashes being more than most people, she would still be able to stick to a target without a ridiculous number of escapes (ex what I mentioned above)

Learn to play against her before you scream "Nerf!"

I really think she doesn't need another nerf :(

:D :D :D :D 44% winrate. WE NEED MORE NERFS, so that EVERY player wins against the team which has AKALI in it :D

Lemme just give some examples; I'm a terrible akali player, you can look at my ranked stats to prove so, but even I can easily destroy in games with her given a slight edge; with 400 ap or so she can 100 to 0 any squishy without any counterplay other than hard cc, which is comparable to OTHER assassins, but the difference is she has THREE DASHES. You CANNOT escape her without extensive team peel, or death. You may argue that she can be bullied in lane, as with any melee mid focused on mid-late game...but she spikes so much harder than other champions. Her level 6 all in potential essentially wins her the lane unless she makes a big mistake, which isn't hard as she has zero skillshots and is as stated multiple times one of the most mobile champions in the game. I understand there are other ways to play vs her (such as the much overstated pink ward) but I dont see it. Taking away invisibility is frustrating but compare her to pre nerf talon. His invisibility didn't matter when ahead, he was too busy killing people without any counter play. How is akali any different?
