You're very much welcome, sir. I also forgot to post yesterday that I admit that I used to buy Support items for pre-reworked Kayle because you really can afford to play passively in lane as her.

With the rework however, I decided to scrap it because of her new passive. In addition to her scaling passive, which seemed to me a big waste if you don't use it, you don't have other CCs outside your slow but it does come with the nifty armor shred and that what's made me change my items and gameplay on her. Her cooldowns seemed largely unchanged so there's that one more factor.

Just pretty much invest in CDR and you're good to go. Personally, I invest in 45% CDR and Ultimate Hunter to make it more spammier. Ultimate Hunter does wonders alongside with 45% CDR. You're gonna be squishy though so I take Heal or Barrier, mostly both for myself.

You might point out that her passive is completely level-dependent and that's a valid argument. But that's not your primary calling, I would say. On top of having damage-dealers in the team already, you're just supplementing it with a role that can combine offensive and supportive competently. In the event that your team is ahead, you'll be regaining those levels in no time. In the event that your team is behind, you have more than just an adequate excuse to farm EXP and use your income for better items. If both sides are even, you bet your ass your passive and damage will be turning tides. Even if you're behind, you'll be dealing a respectable amount of damage, supplementing your Marksman's in the process with the armor shred, while giving out heals and frequent invulnerability.

Best of all, people still don't know how to flee from her ult's blast range. That's free damage to them. Those who know what it does and tries to reposition is sitting duck to free hits.

Investing in Support items would give you the same results though. Nashor's Tooth and Guinsoo's Rageblade will be vital to you and with a little luck, you can buy both for yourself.
