I played as tank Reksai, and here are the reasons I hate about the rework

Before the rework, she can be super good damage absorber, dive into the backline, knock up five men, deals damage, walks out with few hp, regen, go in the fight again. Moreover, she is a super good split pusher since she can use ult to rotate. Now, she is not tanky anymore. Ok, you tell me she scales more with ad and she is a burster now. But can she solo those meta burst jungler like when they encounter in the early game??? Nope. And for her reworked ult, what is the difference if I use 's E or 's ult as they share the same purpose??? Before the rework, she can reset super quickly with her ult and control the pace of the game very well when ahead. Now its just another weaker version of and . Riot please. What did you do to my dearest Reksai? :'(

I'll grant you on the ult as people have issues with it. But Tank Rek'sai was the reason she kept getting nerfed and it didn't help play up her fantasy as a predator (because she did in fact lack the damage when going full tank).

Because they want there to just be minor flavor differences between our Bug, Cat, Wolf and Landshark junglers.

Where mastering one means mastering all and allowing picking whichever fits your situation better.

At least, thats what it looks like.

Now her play style is totally different and I am thinking which champion can replace her past play style...

The point of the rework was to remove the tank Rek'sai build. So if you can't build her tank, I'd say that the rework was successful.

The ult will be cleaned up, don't take it for what it currently is. It is though an execute that scales largely with bonus AD. If you build properly you can do some substantial amount of damage.

Meh seems stupid to give in tbh I just take the jungle item, build normal without sunfire then after an armor+mr item is build, I grab death dance, Don't care much about more than 2 damage items(titanic+death dance)

Although sadly I play her top still :P the few times I get to if someone didn't ban her :/

So you are saying a rework made the champion different? More like how she was intended instead of how she ended up being played? We already knew this, Riot even had a whole blog about it.
