PETITION TO REMOVE AKALI'S TRUE STEALTH

I MUST WIN·7/16/2018, 10:36:23 PM·17 votes·2,431 views

Please riot, this will not go so well. Listen to the community on this one please.

The point of turrets is to PROTECT champs from getting dove or all in from champs that have lots of damage..or wanting to play a passive strategy to eventually outplay the opponent.

With the new akali...This will be almost impossible, turrets can no longer target akali's true stealth and with some ap akali can just easily one shot a champ without getting hit by any turret safely.

Stealth in a whole is a hard to balance mechanic and make the whole game experience for people without stealth detection or stealth themself frustrating. They removed oracles and removed oracles from red lens. We have nothing to counter true stealth, and Akali doesn't require stealth from tower, her only true counter is tower and now it's gone.

she still gets hit by the turret if she attacks and it only lasts 5 seconds. I think we need to wait until this goes live and play test it before we start complaining

I would rerework her kit to not make such a half assassin half bruiser mess... The idea with the passive was awesome and the Q was a good idea to give her some waveclear, but her e and ult do not really fit together with those 2 abilities.

About her w, I am still not sure for mulitple reasons:

I have not yet encountered an Akali that made her w seem like any problem at all (and looking at her winwrate, that might be the case for most players)
Unlike her ult and e the w fits to her passive and basicly disabling it by countering it with 75 gold would just be stupid
Zed, LeBlanc and Fizz (to name some examples) an also dive you, kill you and get out before taking significant turret damage or sometimes even without taking a shot at all, so Akali being able to do it (instead of healing more than the turret dealt, like the old one did) does not feel out of place.

But I do have some kit complains myself:

Does she need the backflip on her e?

with her w she has a solid tool to avoide ganks, so she does not need the backflip there
in most cases she would proc her passive by dashing to the enemy anyway as well as she would have enough time to leave the circle and then dash to begin with, so I see no need for the backflip to proc her passive either.

Her w should reduce Akali's vision range while she is in it. The main purpose of the ability is so she can move in and out to use her passive, so her vision should be reduced to like 300(her attack range with passive) around the cloud and maybe get increased while she has her passive flinging.

Just revert this Fakali to her original form and balance her.

Akali mains are pissed and the playerbase ABSOLUTELY hates the this new Fakali.

I'm pretty sure it isn't true stealth, plus she can still be hit, just not targeted. Say you're Karthus. If she dives you just throw up your e and start thowing out Q's, and if you get low use your stopwatch/hourglass to by yourself time.

I'd be cool with them removing the "obscurity" mechanic if it meant I could buffer jump with Akali again

Make it normal stealth so u can at least farm under turret

The recloak time in every video I have seen seems to eb set to take long enough that she will attract tower aggro and get hit when she breaks stealth. Aqquring aggro inside the shroud seems to result in a turret shot.

I would wait a bit longer to see if that's the case before folks freak out
