@RiotRepertoir Question about Kha'Zix

Back in patch 4.7, Riot increased Void Assault's re-stealth time to 2 seconds from 1. Their reason for doing so was "As an assassin, Kha'Zix should be looking for windows of opportunity to engage...When assassins can start and end a fight without support, that typically points to an overall lack of tactical weaknesses".

I agreed with this balance change. Kha had three two second long, 50% damage reduction buffs that he could use with a one second interval between re-casts. 6 seconds of 50% damage reduction while stealthed was not healthy gameplay. The increase of re-stealth time to 2 seconds allowed the enemy team a much bigger window of opportunity to catch the bug if he decided to recklessly engage. This continued to be a problem, however, so in patch 4.9, Riot removed the damage reduction from evolved R completely. The re-stealth time remained the same.

Why is the re-stealth time on Void Assault (R) still 2 seconds? From my understanding, R's re-stealth time was increased solely to combat the 50% damage reduction-- a trait that currently does not exist on .

As a Kha main, I see only one reason to evolve R now--the enemy team has a very good prolonged teamfight and you need the extra 3 seconds of stealth to assassinate the carries. If the re-stealth time was reverted, it would make a dramatic difference in effectiveness and would help make R a worthwhile evolution.
