i keep on hearing that there will be some changes to stealth in regards to the assassin rework ( for some reason i can no longer find these though, but that wont stop me), is that only for the major reworks or is it a general thing. I say this ecause if riot does something similar to stealth mechanics in general like they did a couple years back, and touch on some champions specifically(like twitch), and fcking nerf there stealth abilities. then they lost another few champions again.(i swear to god if they touch twitches invis again, then holy shit, fuck riot. where twitch's invis is at right now is fine. the reset is a little weird, since if you try to use it again in a teamfight to get another boost of attack speed, you have to stop helping ur team and back off abit. besides that, its fine.)

Slap yourself silly for thinking its that Twitch should not be touched at all, He's already some ridiculous marksmen who has basically no scaling at all yet he has enough utility to make him arse dunk ya thanks to how much potency his Q stealth lets him self setup easily shatting in anyone's face on what he can do.

ESPECIALLY with the fact of him being able to play jungle and he can easily just sneak up on you with Q and then proceed to blast you with barrel and attack speed bonus granted from Q to where unless you manage to react to him in less then half a second with a quick CC, then he will utterly destroy you especially if he grabbed red buff earlier for those powerful debuff effects.

Its one thing to get rushed at by a movement empowered jungler who then slam you with a CC of some sort to prop you for getting eaten, its another when a champion in a role made for rapid fire auto damage can walk right up to you with no way of you noticing at all and proceed to shoot you like crazy to where its either escape or die, no other alternative unless the twitch was retarded enough to not notice you are a tank who can easily massacre you thanks to how that tank's own kit works and you already screwed yourself over partially by wasting your Q to get up on top of them.

All stealth mechanics really need to have a measure of repercussion such as being detected like rengar's and Evelynn's ! mark to point out that 'stealth champion' is nearby and you should be on guard to get surprised attack. But if the champion was say hiding in a bush, then you would have no idea if they were there till they jump out of hiding. League of Legends ain't Metal Gear online or plenty of other FPS, if champions who get certain mechanics don't have measures to counter them beyond extremely bad ideas like hoarding a bunch of gold for pink wards, then they basically become just as scum tier as half of what Yasuo is because they have a gimmick that can have no real measure to counter it and can be uncontested for pretty much any kind of match up outside of highly aware team members to track where the stealth champion is currently about so you know what its target will likely be and they can most definitely be prepared to escape them or even catch them with a counter gank when they try to gank.

P.S. lets add to why Twitch is ridiculous because of the jungle mechanics, alongside many other jungle marksmen.

Red buff aka "Crest of Cinders" Allows you to deal additional true damage that is dealt 3 tics over time when it was first applied, but can constantly be refreshed with simply attacking. PLUS it can apply a slow, champions like Kog'ma and Twitch are able to gain a massive attack speed bonus as early as level 1 which can let them constantly re'apply that true damage bonus as on hit effects, letting them effectively super shred targets, combined with the slow. When a marksmen can stay in range of a target for a long period of time, its obvious they are gonna do a lot of damage by default, especially when they have on hit bonus effects to do so. Considering twitch gets 30% attack speed bonus for 5 seconds after exiting the Q stealth, he could easily pull off a gank as early within the first 5 minutes thanks to his Q, redbuff and a enemy laner not being very defensive at all in the lane trade fighting.
