My idea to make akali less frustrating for opponents(from an Akali main) - Take the Evelynn approach
Alright, so we can all agree Akali is an interesting champion. Her winrate is very low but her ban rate is through the roof, not because she is OP, but because people feel helpless against her shroud. I do play a lot of Akali, and while I do believe she has a pretty highskillcap, I can see where the frustration comes from when playing against her. My idea to make it a little less annoying is to make her shroud more effective past a certain level (just like Evelynn passive).
Right now, Akali is obscured while in her shroud, allowing her to remain hidden from turrets. My idea is to make it so that she only becomes obscured beyond on a certain level. What this does is it prevents her from absolutely destroying you under your own tower in the laning phase, while keeping her unique shroud intact for later stages of the game. Just an idea, but something I think should be looked at.
