Tricky to really say. She will do well late vs a enemy team who has low poke, but she is pretty much a sitting duck vs a poke/longed enemy, as she has to burn E to do anything, and she doesn't like that at all. If they can get into her range she can blast them to pieces. A RQWE can 100-0 a lot of stuff late game, add a DFG and you can blow up fighters. A less assasinesque aproach centered around control mage also works a lot due to her superv peeling abilitites. An asssasin won't be as willing to dive an ADC with the threat of an R to the face, not to mention the still significant damage output. She works best in teamfithts due to the sheer AoE damage, so she will not fall off as long as TF and skirmishes are still present. She can't really kill 1v1  anything bar an ADC without a DFG ( she can playa round slower figther and wittle them down however), and is ripped to pieces by champs who can keep their distance and attack back ( he E is predictable as hell anyways), who are kinda popular nowdays ( Syndra, Ziggs, even Xerath). This means she hates a lot of the fighter slipsuhers (she can stop the push cold with that AoE but thats it. She is not going to bet rengar without DFG and about 700 Ap anyways) as she can't really take them out easyly.

All in all she doesn't really fall off;  her ap ratios are deceptive. Sure, they look average, but a thing that is often ignored is the fact that she can blast all her skills in 0.5-0.7 seconds (smartcast that it is), as -unlike many mages- her cast times and animations can overlap freely, if you open with R that is the most preferable situacion NOTHING MISSES, and packing a brutal amount of CC, and is not really short of damage. She is by no measn a LB late game as she has big ass CC to back up her damage and the AoE makes her remain relevant at that stage. A interesting thing is that Lissa can get assasinish by late game as her AP borders the 700ish, particually due to the ridiculous spellcasting speed. AA couple of games a go I happened to become sort of the bodyguard of the Sivir on my team, just stayed right behind or ahead of her and inatantaneously killed the Aatrox ( who was MR heavy, Void staff op) who was the only one who could properly duel and kill her. The game was horrible for us in mid game, but the tables turned the moment I started to OHKO things in my path and Sivir started to surviving the battles, that eventually lead to several massive pushes and a win. It helped that Sivir & my own AoE stalled the game a lot
