SO much mobility. SO much damage. SO much cc.

WHY DO THEY HAVE SO MUCH SHIT IN THEIR FUCKING KITS?

They're ULTRA safe, which is completely the antithesis of what assassins are SUPPOSED TO BE. They're SUPPOSED to be high risk, high reward. Right now they're literally zero risk, game ruining amounts of reward. Let's look at some examples.

Pyke - Pretty much no risk whatsoever. Can't poke him out. Can't all in him. He just gets to continually try to do his bullshit without any counterplay. Then when he lands 1/784 hooks, you die. Instantly. Talon Has awesome poke, awesome wave clear, awesome cc, 17 quintillion terrain dashes. Also has invisibility for even more safety. Gotta make sure there's ZERO risk or ZERO skill needed! Zed - No risk Leblanc - No risk Ekko - No risk, just press R if you mess up Evelynn - Again, just press R if you mess up, also camoflauge Fizz - Two dashes an invincibility and a slow/knock up Khazix - Three full stealths, a MASSIVE resetting jump, and just press Q for 1000 dmg early game (not even kidding) Rengar - Why does he have cleanse built into his kit?

I honestly can't think of one single healthy assassin.

This is where almost the whole game is going. Either completely overpowered, skilless stat-checks like the Garen/Yuumi trash in Pro Play or hyper-mobile burst. It is so boring that the only people that enjoy it are the ones that like pushing two buttons and doing flash things and pretending that makes them super skilled.

There are two somewhat healthy Assassins: Nocturne Shaco.

If they go in they're in and have to succed to get out! Both are (primary) JGLs, dont have infinite save waveclear, have mana to manage and have only one manageable survivng tool!

Although you come from a salty place, you aren't totally wrong, but you are. EVERYONE is an assassin now. assassins just have cool guy style point kits*[sg-ezreal]*

Nidalee is exactly what an assassin should be. If you misplay you will get melted. No "oops" buttons, no CC, and no escapes.

I think Leblanc is on the worse side of assassins, and she still is so toxic to play against.

tbh it isn't a class problem that the game is suffering it's too much dmg in runes
