She has a 180 Ap burst. 40 of which is physical. This isn't impressive and even requires twice the time of other assassins, in order to land an auto and spin. Leblanc has litterally twice of this.

60% AD every second isn't high, and requires constant useage, leaving you energy drained. Hecarim has the same ratio, and higher cooldown, but can actually build CDR, and isn't rooted in place while casting it.

If you build AP, you're still not bursty enough. If you build AD, you need to build tanky to keep spamming E in trade of smoke screen, and if you're already building tanky, you might as well benefit from the lifesteal which you'll get more of if you deal more damage through your AP, and then you might as well auto which is where the passive comes in.

Singular focus sucks, and it it sucks more the longer you ignore hybridization for the same reason ADC's start sucking after a certain point the longer they ignore crit: it throws you off-curve.
