@Meddler I heard a Rek'Sai rework to make her more dmg based is on the way, where is it?

Rek'Sai can only be played effectively if fully assisted by her team, she basically needs to bait the focus into her and stall for time with her tank items before her teammates come in to finish the job, her damage is laughable except around levels 6-12ish, even when you get a lot of kills and build dmg or tanky dmg you are gonna fall behind and will not carry your team except if you stand back and let them carry you (which is rare at low elos)

The verdict is Rek'Sai is not a carry champion unless her team is built around her to support her as she supports them. She's leagues below other melee fighters like Olaf, Jax, Xin Zhao,Irelia and even Lee Sin who all scale infinitely better than her in both tankiness, sustain and damage.

Rek'sai was even nerfed multiple times because certain numbers of her were comparable to rengar, khazix and wukong at release, while still lacking the tankiness of actual fighters. When these dmg numbers got nerfed she got nothing left. Her pickrate and winrate dropped dramatically in favor of the new assassins who all have strengths.

Rek'Sai's used to have many strengthes like Lee Sin, damage+mobility, now she's only left with nerfed mobility.

Her rework should make her Q bonus ad ratio scale up with furor for example, from .2 to her old .5, I just came up with this, it's simple and balanced.

Or her Q could deal the same damage to all targets around her. These are light reworks/fixes, but she could use a bigger one since her tunnels are so useful, increase their cd up to 30 and buff her tankiness or damage in whatever ways.

And let me talk a bit about her E, it should reward you for building up furor before or during a fight then using it for maximum damage right?

Well, since you follow the meta you should know that Rek'Sai is best played as a cinderhulk full tank with extreme reliance on her teammates ( a shark version of Alistar ).

Then bad news for you, your E's true damage only scales with AD, meaning it will slightly reward Warrior bruiser builders more (which like I said wouldn't work on Rek'Sai since she has assassin base stats, she would get destroyed in long fights)

So why not make her E scale with health or armor?

I hope I don't sound too whiny in this post. I'm a mastery 7 300k points Rek'Sai onetrick stuck in low elo because of many problems I mentionned. So I know what i'm talking about. Riot even released more broken junglers after Rek'Sai like Kindred and Ivern.

Let me know what you think, especially if you've played a lot of Rek'Sai throughout her lifetime on the rift.
