WHY REWORK AKALI

Why does league love making the community so made and angry. there is no point in reworking akali, only people happy about the rework are akali mains. This pisses me off so much the champ is already busted, but why do you need to rework her to be even more broken and more impossible to kill. Her gas shit are you fcking kidding me so no one is see her what kind of bs is that. God i swear this game is turn into shit

actually if you looked around there were some mains that didn't like the rework. as for why rework, because Riot wanted to rework her and get her model, story, and kit all up to speed with the current narrative.

You got it exactly.

Akali wasn't that bad before the rework. She was simpler (and easier to understand) than she will be after the rework. And, it'll be a case of yet another champ we knew that we have lost due to the "we need a champ which shows more skillz".

the only issue with her reworked kit i see right now (outside of the absurd damage, which can be easilyl fixed, i mean holy hell wtf is that passive damage)

is her E being able to latch to her W. i dont really think thats fair.

but i have dont some testing with her passive and true sight.. and true sight DOES reveal; her.. but she still cant be directly "clicked" on with auto attack or point and click spells

i have tested her with Caitlyn ulti and they wont drop when she does into shroud LeeSin Q will also work and even Nidalee can still pounce to her. (although she wont be able to use takedown) tower still will give u vision on her, they just cant target her.

overall, outside of the absurd damage which clearly needs to be addressed (but that's just numbers), and her E latching on her her shroud. she seems fine to me

thats my impression after testing her interactions with W.

i mean CLEARLY her damage is WAY too high to be released.. but the W interactions isnt anywhere close to as bad as it could have been.. riot actually impressed me with that part.

her W is still pretty clearly a massive buff, but its not as bad as it could have been.. true sight at least REVEAL her.. even if they dont make her targetable by point and click or autos

Ummmmm...

I'm an Akali main and i'm ABSOLUTELY DEPRESSED that they're deleting old Akali and replacing her with this new "rework".

She doesn't feel anywhere close to the same though i'll probably end up playing her no matter how tilted I am at the moment.

I wish they would just put her back how she was in season 3 / 4 and nerf her damage. Let pink wards expose her shroud. GG

I want to play Akali the way that she's always felt. Not AhriAkali.

She needed a rework. Even if you don't like the direction of the rework, like that weird fanny pack and the loss of sideboob, she needed one.

Why did they make a DOTA 2? Why is Blizzard constantly updating and reworking heroes in their games? Why isn't Zelda BotW more like OoT? Why doesn't Nintendo just make Smash exactly like Melee? Why isn't Nier Automata Drakenguard 5? Why? Why? Why?

Get over it.
