Kha'Zix is really dumb

I don't mean to sound like a bitchy crybaby, but honestly this needs to be addressed. With the assassin update we saw most assassins getting a delay or some form of couterplay to their burst combo. Talon has to get three stacks then aa for a bleed. Now we see the new Evelynn has a 2.5 second delay before she can really one shot you. One other thing that helps a lot is the indicator for many of these champs. Rengar and Evelynn have large indicators above your head, so even though they are walking around the jg stealthed you'll at least have a small window to know when they are going to pop out and kill you.

Khazix has absolutely none of these problems that other assassins have. Kha'zix simply only has to hit level 6 and evolve his ulti and he is walking around INVISIBLE in your jg. Evelynn only has permanent camouflage, and Rengar only has temporary camouflage. Eve and rengar, also have a range where you can see them, Khazix on the other hand will simply walk melee range of you, use is aa and point and click q and one shot you. He has no delay to his burst and can even proc his high damage aa multiple times if he doesn't kill you the first time. And with the addition ofitem 3147 his singular aa will do at least 1/2 of your health. Not to mention that often you don't even have to be isolated for him to one shot you. And don't even get me started on Dark Harvest.

TLDR; Kha'zix has been an extremely unbalanced champion since the assassin rework. He has no glaring weaknesses or forms of counterplay like other assassins do.

looks at Kha'Zix's non-isolation damage numbers Kha'Zix is only good if he can get someone alone, he falls off hard when people start grouping up. In addition, because Kha'Zix evolves R first, he ends up losing out on even more damage that his Evolved Q would have gave him.

He's honestly not broken, you are just not playing around his weaknesses.

Kha'zix is one of those champions that rewards skilled players a little too much. His mains are sitting on a 58% win rate with him, which is a good 3-4% higher than most other mains. On average, though, he's fine.

I'm not sure what Riot could trim off of him to only hit his mains, but the nerf to Duskblade's damage is at least a start.

I have almost 90k mastery points on Kha’Zix and it’s enough to tell you, Kha’Zix is only good on 1v1’s. If there are 2 people together then Kha’Zix’s ability to win a fight is gone. Perhaps it is that you play low-health champs/builds or and Ashe that goes alone and then gets 1-shot by Kha’Zix. In fact, I would even boost him a tiny bit more. Half the Junglers you can’t fight as Kha’Zix, for example Warwick and Jax or Nasus (occasionally) and maybe even JarvanIV . Of course I may be totally incorrect but I think I gave my point. And yeah, off a good start Kha’Zix will do good, but off of a bad start, then you’re no use, also considering that in comparison to other jglers, Kha’Zix is a difficult one to play with.

Edit: (I just realized this was a thread from 2 years ago, but it still is like this)
