About Akali

I think Akali is one of, maybe even the worst champion in the whole game, and here are some on my reasons:

1. She is very weak in lane, and by that I mean she is melee, she has no poke whatsoever, no waveclear whatsoever and is vulnerable to harassment attacks by pretty much any champion.
2. She has a very hard time in lane with farming under tower, VERY hard time which means she can miss a lot of cs and fall behind quite hard.
3. To do any damage whatsoever she needs to get in melee range to do ANYTHING, which makes her a very easy target.
4. She literally has no way of escaping after diving to kill the carries unlike some other assassins. ( Kata, Zed, Talon, LeBlanc...) With the Kata rework, she is made from a completely trash in lane champion with must snowball or we lose to a pretty decent champion. I really think she needs a full VGU. Any thoughts?
