Or they could stop pretending they haven't powershifted items away from AS toward crit and just adjust accordingly. Even ignoring the state of her jump they still haven't corrected her values since the marksmen update to let her function. Actually didn't they even nerf her? I still can't figure out the reasoning. But they also kept nerfing kindred, so it feels like they know something I don't about these champs that don't get crit nor really benefit from lethality (though kindred does more than kalista).

And with lethality taking over the early and mid game, she ends up being completely pushed out, because she doesn't even fit the power curve. if she's going to have the old lifedrain and outlast strategy for the mid game - why not just boost those properties? W returns health against champions. Passive, also reduces damage from auto attacks because ghostiness - which becomes less important later when you need a proper ADC anyway. Or make Q do something more than just being another spear, because if it's supposed to carry spears to the next victim, it's going to have to deal increased damage, however fractional, because there's no point ever to throw a spear over just activating E to kill the target with that damage difference.

Or just make her work with the new items; crit applies extra stacks, or inhibits mobility reduction for her jump. If her dynamic with the new items just don't work, why fight it?
