As a former Akali main I think she is by far the weakest assassin in the game atm.At least in higher elos.

Why she is so weak?

1)Her kit is outdated as hell riot themselves said that they know she is in a very bad spot right now and they're gonna rework her in the future.

2)That proc nerf on E made the ability nothing but a farming tool.Even when maxed.

3)Her escape compared to the other assassins'  by far the easiest one to counter.(An LB,Zed,Ekko can easily all in get to kill and jump back.)

4)She probably has the shittiest early game out of all the other champions actually.

5)Her damage combo has no counterplay.Now you may say how the hell is that a weakness?Well,Riot INTENTIONALLY made her damage combo weaker because it has no counterplay.Means untill her rework the damage combo will remain weaker and slower.

6)Unless there are enemy champs,minions,units,etc. she cannot outplay her opponent.Yasuo has the same problem but he can use his E just to outplay his opponent all day whereas Akali needs her ulti to deal damage not just outplay.
