But there is a difference between having a job to do and having all the tools to achieve it and doing so without any counterplay. Katarina, LeBlanc and even Talon, all of them had counterplay added into their kits, mainly with delays and the ability to dodge their stuff.

LeBlanc now can't Q-RQ squishies anymore in under a second an delete them, she has to wait her 1,5 second passive and that's enough time for her target to react or the enemy frontline to counteract. Katarina has delayed damage with her Daggers aswell and is pretty telegraphed by them, thus predictable and can be dodged. Talon's W travels more slowly aswell and until he is super fed, he is dependant on his bleeds damage, making his damage a little more delayed aswell, not to mention that his W is dodgable and his damage can be reduced by gaining distance and denying his Q crit. All of these delays however were paired with more damage in general, but burst that can be avoided.

The counterplay Rengar had build into his kit was the flashable/sidestepable Q and his large tracking radius together with the "body block" mechanic of his ult. Now they remove anything of this again, while keeping the compensations he gained in the Assassin Update (like the bonus AD passive or his W cleanse) in his kit.

I agree that an Assassin should be able to kill a seperated ADC, but not without any counterplay. The ADC, although he fucked up his positioning, deserves a chance to outplay the assassin with smart plays. And with a Rengar who can jump on you and instantly double Q, that won't be possible at all.
