Rek'Sai nerfs

SwiftKitten88··1 votes·366 views

although the nerfs to rek' currently on the pbe (to her passive)

Tremor Sense (part of W): "cooldown for updates per target is up to 1.5 from .75 seconds" - src "an adjustment so that you'll need to travel a short distance for tremor distance to pick up your movement as well (more than 85 units from memory). Main effect of that will be that you don't get punished for adjusting facing as much." - src.

are not 100% guaranteed to go live. it seems pretty likely that they will.

now I'm not sure this mean it only UPDATES every 1.5 seconds, or it mean it tells you were they WERE 1.5 seconds ago. becuase i play rek'sai and i can say.. right now unless they move then then stop.. the location of the circle ping that shows thier movement isn't where they ARE it where they WERE.

without a PBE account im not sure exactly how this looks in game.

but i still think its an unneeded nerf...

reksai has pretty much been turned into a knock-up bot without much use out of competitive play.

she was OP at release but then she got nerfed and was balanced... but riot just kept on nerfing her and now she frankly just really cant do much compared to other jungler OTHER than her W's passive tremor sense.

It **updates **every 1.5 instead of 0.75 sec. And yes, that changes are needed. Not because reksai is a to strong pick in generall, but because she dominates proplay once again and will get nerfed over that for sure. Hitting her tremorsense will have minor impact on your average rekasi but more so in professional play, so berfing that instead of anything else is the right call. I even would prefer further nerfs to her subtile utillity to free room to compensation buffs on her combat power, especially later in the game.

Imo it just sucks and goes against her champion fantasy that she becomes little more than a moveing radarstation with knockup later in the game.

And for what she can do other than other junglers: strong early clear+sustain, incredible fleixble jungle+gank pathing, can donate the firstblue without major setback, can pickup sightstone without major setback, great earlygame damage + rather reliable cc, which combos very effective with her powerfull pathing for strong invades and ganks/counterganks, unmatched map mobillity.

Reksai just has alot going for her in the early jungle if used well and can transition it well into midgame if her map mobillity and tremorsense are used well, just her combat power falls of very quickly.
