Kha'zix ult rework idea

Ok, so we all know Kha zix needs some love by riot, and riot probably won't read this, but I came up with a rework for his ultimate:

What if when you press R, you become invisible for 5 seconds, gain movement speed(as always), but kinda like Rengar, you have a little ring around you so when you click a champion in range of that ring, you dash to that champion, and once you get to him, Kha'zix slices the enemy champion up. This ability deals more damage if isolated. It could also have this Cool animation, like the old Fiora ultimate.

Animation: Kha'zix dashes to the champ targeted, lifts him airborne, and slices him once, pops invisible, pops out and slices him again.

What do you guys think?

I don't think it's really necessary. The whole point of his ultimate is to be able to reactivate his passive on demand, or maybe to escape a bad situation.

His passive already does very little damage(bonus magic damage: useless on him). The slow is really what it is to it. All you need to do is walk in a bush to reactivate it, since Kha isn't much of a teamfighter. And the stealth only lasts like 2 seconds. Honestly, I play a lot of kha zix, and I pretty much only use the ultimate to run away with the speed boost. To get away, I jump in, kill squishy, and jump out.

And imagine if when you evolve your ultimate, the ult resets if you execute someone with it.

You're proposing an incredibly overpowered concept that would just get the champion nerfed into the ground, again, like he did back in season 4.

Kha'zix does just the same in teamfights as any other assassin, in fact maybe better due to the resets on E.

I use his ultimate for a lot of varied things, but it's most effective to skirt around uncontested in team fights to jump on the appropriate carries.

I also play a lot of Kha'zix, and I can tell you that resetting his passive nets me a minimum of 3 kills a game that I wouldn't get otherwise.

The only real changes I'd like to him are numbers changes, and maybe a rework on his ultimate that gave it a proper charge system that reset one charge on kill, similar to Akali's ultimate. There's often times where I only end up using one of the two charges as the first stealth was enough to do what I needed.

What I can tell you will help is when Assassin's dagger actually comes out as an item, it'll return the game to the assassin meta almost instantaneously I'm just trying to figure out where it should go in my build for Kha'zix.

Also, I looked up your Kha'zix games, and if you like the way you build awesome, but try this build item 1400 item 3142 item 3156 item 3071 item 3026 then boots of your choice. I find it works even better than the build you're using, which is the one I used to use. 40% CDR, 30 Flat armor penetration, armor shred with cleaver, I nearly do true damage between the items and my runes, when jumping on carries. I simply don't like the Tiamat build as it's not nearly as good unless you can instantly buy ravenous hydra, as there's no more cleave passively on Tiamat.

Above all else, I think the thing that would fix Kha'zix's spot in the game more than anything else is if the old last whisper returned. Only penetrating bonus armor instead of all armor was a huge hit against Kha'zix as he's already not great against tanks, this just made it worse. Maybe they could play around with putting some sort of armor shred on his abilities, nothing crazy, but say you land his jump it shreds a % of the targets armor, maybe similar to Urgot's E so it scales with ranks in the ability, something like 10/15/20/25/30.

call me whatever you want, but I learned this morning that item 3077 got its passive removed, lol. Also, I'd like a REAL rework on his ult, because I don't use his ult as much as I'd like to. I got a bunch of assassin champs that I don't use becuz of the current tank meta, but I'm looking forward for the new nightfall assassin dagger. And fine, maybe not an animation and all, but at least a dash/jump! Rengar can have it! Why can't Kha? Maybe it doesn't do as much damage, but a little more invisibility time would be nice
