Lee sucks from a 800k Lee Sin main

I know downvotes are incoming; but hear me out. lee sin's power has gone and past, for a while now. he hasn't even been close to a meta pick for months. i'm not saying he's_ terrible_, but he's way under par. if riot wants to keep his identity as it is now, i feel like they need to give him more utility late game to make up for his literally non exsistent one as of now.

even as an early game jungler, he isn't even top tier anymore. there's many, many junglers that do his job better in the early game and vastly outscale him later; eg all tank junglers and even kha, xin, etc.

what i propose, like i said before, is to buff his utility so he transitions from an assassin-esque fighter/skirmisher into a utility/offtank in the late game if you build him correctly.

my propositions:

1.) let his shield scale slightly_ with bonus AD. this would give him stacking power throughout the game and his shield would actually be useful later in the game.

2.) give him flat AD scalings so he can scale more properly as a bruiser into the late game. it's contradictory for him to have bonus AD when he's supposed to transition into a tank.

3.) give true sight back to his e. why was this even removed? it wasn't even remotely overpowered in any sense and followed his lore, and you guys outright remove it for no reason.

thanks, a dedicated lee main that misses his favorite champion

Good fucking riddance. He's been meta for years.

And... he has a 25% playrate and ~49% winrate in plat+. How is he bad exactly? If anything he's quite good atm lol

Lee isn't bad by any means.

If you can't make him work, however, something else may be bad... ^^

Lee will be fine. Riot always finds a way to get him back into the game at some point or another.

Sounds like you're upset he's not God Tier anymore. You have at least a 50% win rate with him so whats the problem?

Just wait till worlds, they will buff him again like they do every year so he can make an appearance for the #BigWorldsPlays

So? We had champions who weren't meta for like years.

He could use some slight buffs.

I agree

The true sight was removed due to the Stealth rework into it’s current two iterations. Everyone, especially Akali mains were crying about Lee Sin being able negate their abilities when Control wards and the like no longer could.

Oh no, lee requires a higher skillcap to win? however will he shape this years meta?

No, do not buff him. Hes good enough and I don't care how many games you've played. A bot can get 800k mastery if you program it well enough.

Good fucking riddance, I was there when he got released and since then at least 50% of time he was the top jungle pick and other 50% he was at least viable. He is viable today as well. What I really want for Lee mains is for him to be unplayable, to be the season 1 Eve with 30% win rate where you literally got reported for inting just for picking her. I want that for all you fucking freelo abusers that gave me PTSD over the years. Including one of my best friends who is a Lee 1 trick - fuck you too !!!
