@   MakoShiruba: I played Kayle like 500 games, and I know she used to have good damage capability. But she already has the weaknesses with her mobility and short range, slow AS/level. But I have to say again, she was over-nerfed.

The damage was crippled too much. And CD nerf on ulti is also overkill. With her simple mechanism, it's difficult for her now to kill or snowballing.

Maybe you are still rocking in normal games, when people trying various things from new champs to builds/runes/masteries. But in ranked game (Plat+), it is difficult indeed. Junglers with lock-in ability like J4 or Vi can gank her quite easily, or LeeSin, Riven.

In lane you hardly catch LeBlanc, Zed, Ahri, ... whilst they can catch you much much easier... And Katarina or Annie, Malzahar will burst you quickly (unless you have ulti up at the right time - but next time your CD is just higher than theirs and that's screwed).

And tanky champs can also out-trade Kayle, from ChoGath, Maokai, Mordekaiser, Darius, Udyr, ...

Kayle carried me from bronze to Platinum, but now I feel like hitting a brick wall. I don't think I can't climb to Diamond+ with her, unless some substantial buff occurs. She's now just a small shadow of what she was.
