Her winrate is in the low 40s in all elos so it clearly isn't a skill issue. Its been about 4 months since her rework, shes always had a sub-50% winrate yet is still getting battered with nerfs

She isn't is a proplay issue like Azir, Ryze or Kalista as her winrate and impact there is subpar too. All these people saying winrate doesn't matter do have some merit in their argument but when it's this bad, it kind of becomes void. Is there any valid argument on why Akali is even getting more nerfs when she is already a trash champ. Edit: For those saying she is good when mastered, the winrate is still in the low 40s in PLAT+. It's been months since she was reworked as I said and she isnt so hard as to have kept this winrate for the longest time. Sure she is annoying but if you know how to adapt to the matchup, you cool. You just gotta understand she isn't a champion without her shroud and if it keeps getting nerfed true stealth won't matter anymore.

Nobody enjoys playing against her.

The kit is a failure, just like a lot of CerT champs. He really just isn't good for the game. Most of what he's done just eats serious shit and people generally hate it, generating more negative reactions than anything else in game outside of high damage. Yasuo Zed Akali Zoe Its either that, or CerT champs just don't fit in well with the direction riot has taken afterwards. Personally, I think riot is going to do less well in 2019 than they did in 2018 because they don't respond to player feedback in a way that keeps the game going and fun to play. Just about everything they do recently is damage up, frustration up.

If China decides to 86 league like they recently did to PUBG its going to make catering to the internet cafes seem like a shortsighted and myopic, poor business decision. Frankly, I wouldn't regret seeing it happen. Something needs to snap these people back to reality.

I mean, if they hadn't let the shroud go live like it is the banrate wouldnt be as big, thats the vast majority's main gripe (the "obscured" mechanic and how quickely she restealths),

Seriously, your narrative doesn't check out: she IS strong in the good hands.

The shroud was a terrible idea and symbolizes everything wrong with recent League design.

Meanwhile Malz is sitting at a 52.0% win rate and is just as uninteractive.

Because its popular to cry about her. Just like Zoe now Irelia and Camille to an extent as well.

Riot doesnt care about logic or winrates or numbers with their nerfs they care about community qq
