Why is Riot giving a single, True damage Synergy 3 Assassins?

It's recently and noticeably been discovered that is best at being an assassin of all general champs due to his ease of 3 star, and AD growth.

So....... why is Riot making our next unit ? Ranger Assassin VOID

Riot just basically introduced our first Duo synergy Trio, and not only that, they scale off each other (Void on True damage can still Crit)

are almost ALL capable of being assassins, and are a solid team on their own. Add in at least 2 more Brawlers, ( ) + a random like and you basically have a True damage team with both tankiness, Crit rate, and zone control.

Why is Riot doing this?

#PS In the same PBE, Riot is making 3 Star Mordekaiser's skill 850 Base AP damage? WTF? That makes him almost Aatrox level damage at a 1 Tier! He was 450 base. Almost a 100% increase in damage..... Never mind that Kai Sa ALSO fits into the Phantom/Ranger/Knight build.....

Gotta remember Void is being nerfed.

(2) - One random Void deals true damage (4) - All Void deal true damage

Also Mordekaiser is ass and his ability only hits 2 units. His ability will deal 850 to 2 units, that's potential 1900 damage.

Meanwhile Aatrox has a 2 target potential of 1800, and a max potential of 5400. That's not even comparable.

I find it weird too. Void Assassins is one of the stronger comps out there already, and now introducing the 5 Cost units with hyper attack spd, it's going to be another case of broken Pantheon.

I also foresee that if it's too strong and needs toned down, they will more likely nerf Void/Assassins or other champions instead of Kaisa, cus by all means she's been getting nothing but favoritism from Devs since her debut on SR.

Morde needs alot more mana which he gains slower due lower AA dps, and he only hits two tiels in a row compared to Aatrox's full 1tiel aoe which means up to 7 targets. Morde was trash and can use the buffs. And Aatrox seriously should get his base hp nerf reverted, he's not in a good spot atm.

Kaisa though...that one is pure bullshit. 3perks that all focus on damage and a high tier ranger then rangers are already really strong, aswell as high tier void/assasin then void assasins are strong already...what could possibly go wrong

Chogath Gnar Kaisa Khazix Nidalee Rengar RekSai Warwick for void/wild/assasin so you can't dodge the truedamage crits and room for either a 4th brawler, 2end Ranger or 3ed shapeshifter

So a squishy ranger is going to jump into melee range? Or do Assassins only jump into their combat range? Can't say I know since most Assassin's are melee.
