For one thing, she has lower base stats and stat gain per level than any other carry (her base attack is average, though), making her exceptionally item dependent.

It doesn't help that her spells used to make up for this but have since been toned down into their current status (Tumble went from 75% scaling, like Draven's Axe, to a slightly better sheen, W lost some of it's base damage, Condemn lost all of it's damage and Final Hour got nerfed here and there. On top of that her base movement speed got nerfed while her passive did as well).

She has not been buffed once since she came out, while still having the same weaknesses that she's had since then (burst damage spell/spell caster/any form of CC? Her hands are tied). THOSE are her shortcomings. Also saves me the trouble of actually writing out a blog.
