Can we stop pretending Akali is fair?

Every single game I've EVER played against Akali, she either absolutely dominates the game, or does literally nothing. She is not a healthy design, she is nothing you say is good, so fucking gut her until you rework her to have some real weaknesses and counterplay.

Oh but I know you don't give a fuck, since money is the only thing you worry about. So we'll just keep on pretending she's not horribly broken. Good shit, Riot.

if you say she is not a healthy design then your saying assassins are not a healthy design. if an assassin snowballs, the person carries, if not, person is useless. that is all assassins are in general. which is why i dont like playing them.

also if they did only care about money, they would make a champion broken and give the champion a shit ton of skins. (forget twitch and tristana, pls)

Is every assassin 100% targeted, resourceless, with mixed damage and hyper mobility + sustain? Hmm...

And Akali doesn't have to snowball to do anything. She hits level 6 and automatically wins lane and then the game unless you literally fucking one shot her or CC lock her with enough consistency that she can't push W and automatically get away.

Zed has counterplay. Talon has (some) counterplay. Nidalee has counterplay. Akali literally just wins or does nothing.

Oh, and Akali can also build straight fucking tank and still one shot people. Can Zed do that? Or what about Nidalee?
