User blog comment:StrategicMagic/Carry by Proxy - Why (Some) Assasins Don't Fall Off Late/@comment-99.3.5.40-20121209082527

I disagree completely. Assassins fall off late because essentially they remove one person from the fight, but at the same time remove themselves from the fight. LBs burst is limited to a 30s CD, meaning she burstts ONE person down every 30s, where a majority of, lets say, orianna's damage comes from her q w combo and her auto attacks. The reason she is single handedly one of the best characters in the game is because if she wants to she WILL burst down a single target, while at the same time disabling the enemy team and allowing her team to fight without interruption. If you play her well she bursts quick. While not as fast as leblanc she still bursts quick and there is little difference in bursting someone down in 2s or 4s because there is still not enough time for everyone on the enemy team to react given ori's ult. Ori, after she ults, is a sustained damage shield/aa thrower and still does a significant amount of damage without her CDs up, where leblanc does little to nothing.
