She needed nerfs, not buffs. It's riot doing the same thing again, they release a champ who people can't play properly on first patch then buff it because it has low winrate. Well, this is what happened.

She did get nerfed. I guess the small QoL fixes they did for her just turned out to help her massively.

They nerfed the scalings on the numbers of arguably the best scaling champion outside of numbers. If we put it like this, those nerfs were destined to have very very low impact, but the QoL changes did quite a lot on her laning, which was her only weakness. Result is as shown in the post.

She was only 48% winrate on release goddamit. We knew this was going to happen.

its the Rito Jaymes special. Release a reworked or new champ, get mad that they're not selling skins because the players didn't want the new champ to look/talk/play a certain way, stuff their forced meta down everyone's gullet so there's one in every game, thus raising skin sales since everyone plays the same champ every game and gets tired of the shitty looks/voice, and then act shocked that it happened and bandaid-fix it a few patches later (unless you're Vayne in which the 'a few patches' can be replaced with "maybe next year?")

"BLRHFHHFHHFH HUR DUR, HERE AT RITITTO JAYMS, WE VALUE THE PLAYERS OPINION OH YOU WANT A C T U A L BALANCE CHANGES & NERFS, AND NOT JUST BUFF AFTER BUFF AFTER BUFF FOR CHAMPS THAT MAKE US MONEY? hahahaha NO

They have NEVER learned yet to not buff and buff and buff hypercarry champs. Shit like Kayle, Vayne, Jax, Lucian will never reach a point where they're in an acceptable balanced state. Either they'll be dumpstered to save face before the horde of players who hate seeing them every game decide to quit (for the 6th consecutive patch of nothing being done), and left to rot, or they'll be overbuffed and left that way for way too long.

They only just now decided that allowing one single champion to abuse 2 tear of the goddess items was an overdue removal and ez has only really had one small dry spell during the hypertank meta (was it Season 6 i think?) where he wasn't going to do anything anyways because of the meta not favoring him.

They're not going to go back on their word for a few patches, strap in for the fun times and kayle bans every game for a few months. [zombie-brand-facepalm]

What does Kayle do so well now? I have not played in a couple weeks but wasn’t she awful when she was originally released? She couldn’t do anything until like level 11, right? What did they change?

QoL buffs. Her E scales with attack speed better and her W instantly grants its MS.

She abuses the hell out of klepto.. Just grabbing free health/mana (and biscuit) pot through her E and she get free lane sustain turning out to be a lane bully since she keep E on the enemy rather than farming safe. Also that skill point that lower her lv condition is unfair.
