So when will rek'sai be getting reworked? (skippable..)

So...yeah. RekSai. honestly forgot I have had her for a month or so. but I recently remember I was told time and time again she was getting aShyvana style rework,i tried looking it up but sadly all I find is stuff saying rek'sai is getting a rework,most of the stuff from January. Though I don't know what I'm waiting for. some random patch? a patch for multiple champs (in a style of a midseason update) was there anything even mentioned past "rek'sai has a rework planned"it's at this point I go into a rant Cause I mean,he Q at MAX rank does 55 damage every AA with only a 20% AD scaling. and that seems to be her main damage source.... her unburrowed E isn't very useful either. practically just a weaker AA most of the time, and I don't know the timing with the level scalings as her ult gives attack speed,but a MAXED E would probably do less damage then a like,level 6 AA and would probably LOWER your DPS Let's not even factoer the E's true damage. as at rank 4 it's kinda stronger then a normal AA but factor this you need 100 fury for the E to do true damage. you get 10 every AA, queens wrath, unburrow, and 2.5 for anything hit past the first on queens wrath/unburrow minions spawn in groups of...six or seven. I think seven. so les say you gank, BUT WAIT your gap closer uses fury over time unless your full HP,but out of combat you lose fury so chances are you will never gank with full HP and have a good amount of fury,without losing it at its massive diminishing rate out of combat so you pull a gank and hit EVERYTHING the champ and the whole wave unburrow,even with its small radius lets say you hit all 7 minions and a champ. then all of queens wrath that's 4 instances of 10 fury and 28 of 2.5 4 x 10=40 28 x 2.5= 70 so landing a NEAR IMPOSSIBLE combination of EVERY fury making ability besides your E gives 110 fury. hardly capping you off.

and just to clarify,you will probably never hit every minions with unburrow so that removes prolly 10 fury and your chasing most likely so you will prolly only land like one full Q on the wave or just hit 3 so that removes like half of the 28 minions fury gain. 14 x 2.5=35 so you would also have to chase long enough for at LEAST 4 more AA's which is probably at that point like seven more seconds worth of AA's the opponent will be at turret by then... so,after my long LONG post,in short:apart from monsters you will probably.....not really....like,EVER get the true damage from your E on a champ,but more likely on a monster as it just sits in place letting you hit it. So...yeah. reworks needed. Yorick Skarner Shen are playable and have strong points But RekSai isn't a very good tank,as she has only one CC with a long CD and has rather low scaling. isn't even a slow and only goes (if the wiki is updated..) up to ONE second. and a fighter?....uh... http://leagueoflegends.wikia.com/wiki/Rek%27Sai scalings say otherwise and let's not take the true E into account

Patch 7.11-12 (probably) I've asked about this a bit, and got a response from meddler. Ive been told the ult is going to be almost a new ability, and the burrowed Q isn't being changed much, if at all. The W knock up is being changed to single target. That's all I know about it so far.

At first riot said they were reworking her in the diver update. Which was her intended class not tank but thanks to nerfs for pro lvl shes just a tank now. The most receny was in one of meddlers gameplay updates and that she was getting the mini rework Shortly after the tank update.

I feel like if Rek' sai got higher scalings, or relied less on her fury, then she would be better. Unfortunately, ganking is terrible with her since you lose fury on the way to lane, getting rid of you true damage. item 3070

They just announced that it will be coming 7.11, which is in a little over two weeks from now. However, it might get pushed to 7.12, which will take twice the time.
