User blog comment:YourPrivateNightmare/Ewwwww, it's got the nerfs!/@comment-14874017-20140511201246

First, please do not order people around without reason or power to do so.

Second, one wise player said "Picking up kassa vs lb mid is a gamble that even Twisted Fate would not pick" or something like that. This matchup was a gamble due who-press-q-first gameplay, but even after reworks it is still a high-risk low-reward play. Oh, and there are some differences between NERF and a REWORK and You should be aware of that. Elise is the only champ You mentioned that get true nerf, hovewer it was neccesary. Hovewer as You still love her i don't know why did You mention her, nor i know the purpose of this blog.

To answer Your question: because most people are in fact dynamic noobs or good Lee Sin players (depending on viewpoint), so any nerf to their brainless champ makes them faint (see Darius). Oh and Lee also get a rework not nerf for future reference.
