They're actually doing both this patch: champions like Maokai, Nautilus and Zac are getting buffs so that they become more popular again in the jungle. In general, tank junglers are going to get improvements to their itemization so that they don't get outclassed by fighters.

While nerfing isn't pleasant if you're a fan of the champion getting nerfed, it's a necessary evil, as is the case here with Kayle: despite the previous nerfs to her burst, she's still a super-dominant pick with no real weaknesses, capable of supporting and dealing tons of damage at the same time in amounts similar to dedicated supports and fighters. She currently has the highest win rate in the game, at ~55%, and has one of the highest ban rates at ~60%. Buffing all of her competitors (which would mean literally every mid laner) would just lead to power creep and would just make balancing even more difficult in the future, so the right solution here is to nerf Kayle, or at least give her more vulnerability.
