Akali and Aatrox got nerfed for Worlds

Stop acting surprised that they got gutted this patch. It was intentional. They even said it on the patch notes. They're purposefully making these two problematic champions not-viable for pro play right before Worlds so it isn't dominated by these two champions.

They are going to buff them again for the patch after Worlds. They just need more large-scale work that the devs are likely saving for preseason. They couldn't fix their mistakes fast enough to keep them from ruining pro play, so they're gutting them now while they work on a long-term solution.

Give it time. They're gonna suck now, but the devs aren't satisfied with their current spot. This isn't where they will stay.

I don't understand why riot only seems to do champion buffs and nerfs for pro play, like somehow that is the majority of their players? Like fuck you. Every 2 weeks when riot comes out with ANOTHER patch, which is WAY too much, everything changes for players using that champion. 3, 4 times a season, a player will have their champion re-worked, buffed, nerfed, then gutted. It gets so tiresome, and irritating, constantly having to either find new champions to play, or attempt to work with the trash riot gives us.

STOP PUTTING SO MANY FUCKING PATCHES OUT AND STOP DESTROYING AKALI FOR NORMAL PLAYERS
