Dear Bro,

The remake was a normalization for her. We already know she's weak, but now we can start tweaking the numbers upwards without creating a faceroll hyper carry with invincibility.

As an avid Kayle fan, I was flipping tables at Riot too. I was soothed by the fact that now she can be buffed both overtly and safely.

Sincerely,

Sad man

+ 1. I hope other Riot employees see how easy it is to make a non troll post.

I dont see how number tweaking is going to change the fact that shes a one build, mediocre Attack speed on hit champion now.

Buff her numbers and she will be slightly better then teemo, Buff them a little more and she will be on par with kog'maw. She had a unique playstyle and now she doesnt, number tweaking wont change that.

She would need a new new passive.

"We wanted to buff her, but couldn't, because she was balanced. So we had to nerf her first."

Brilliant!

You underestimate the power of invincibility on a low cooldown. With AP ratio tweaks, she can go back to choosing between mage and auto attacker

How was she EVER a 'faceroll' (lol) hypercarry with invincibility? :\

No different than any other carry in the game, except she actually trades a potentially powerful offensive ult for a defensive one

edit: okay, why the downvotes?

Pretty big tweaks I'd hope. Her ratio's are all incredibly low to balance out her old passive. Now that her passive is **** she needs normal caster\support ratios.

Kayle was too binary, which gave the impression of being balanced. Either she would faceoll people or be an "R" bot because she was failing.
