Passive The switching of order seems alright , it ' s not really too big a concern . At this point , you just hit the minion with an auto first to heal , and then auto the enemy champ if possible within the next 4 seconds . I ' m pretty sure Riot is trying to remove spellvamp from the game in general , so she probably won ' t get that back . W can ' t be reverted to being able to throw it , as this was their solution to the Akali bug for when you threw Shroud into wall and it became invisible . Though I do agree it was essential for zoning during laning phase , and being able to apply pressure , this new W does allow for some active outplay potential through jukesdodging skillshots . The E onminionkillcooldownreset is useful as it gives Akali pushing power should she be left in a lane without her opponent being there , giving her the ability to punish bad back timings and roams . R is annoying , the 2 second CD is undeserved , but was probably meant to give opponents more time to react or something . Damage cut is also undeserved , but I ' ll take utility buffs over damage buffs first .
