Akali is just like Yasuo. Even with a low win rate she's awful to play against.

you mean you don't enjoy playing vs zero risk, high reward, immortal mechanics champ?

Yasuo and Akali rework's gameplay are designed by the same guy.

I disagree though. Akali feels awful to fight if you get countered by her and awesome to fight if you counter her (I'm a dar main and I like smashing her). Yasuo feels awful to fight against whether or not you counter him, and the better the Yas, the fewer counters he actually has.

literally the only thing I want is for obscuring to just turn into stealth. There's NO REASON she should be able to 'nope' right out of true sight

Playing against Yasuo is not that bad people just don't like that they can't sit in their minion or run away straight to tower they have to take alternate routes. Yasuo has very obvious times where he is vulnerable just learn to play against him. Akali IMO is only obnoxious because her restealth time is too short. It needs to be 50%-100% longer and she would be easier to handle.

She has less mobility than before her rework. That is the opposite of mobility creep.

With her and Yasuo, the issue is that it is entirely reliant on them screwing up rather than you out playing them. You can't be proactive against them, you need to punish every mistake you see. It's harder with Yas because his kit is even more forgiving.

Could be worse.

She should have ranged auto attacks that you can't dodge like a huge number of champs in the game.

Almost ungankable...

Rework Akali has LESS mobility than old Akali.

Old Akali:

• blink on her smokebomb
• 3 dashes on her R, which recharge with every kill
  • 4 movement abilities, with a lot of flexibility and uptime on how to use them

Rework Akali:

• dash on her shuriken throw
• 2 dashes in quick succession on her R, with a long CD and no recharge/reset
  • 3 movement abilities, with 2 of them being forced to use in quick succession together, and with much less uptime than previously

How can you talk about mobility creep, geez?

And don't get me wrong, I still think that this new smokebomb is utter bullshit and should have never been implemented, but the problem with new Akali is NOT her mobility. That was the one good thing in the rework, they toned her mobility down.
