How exactly did he get shit on again? Looks like slight nerfs to his Q along with some slight buffs to E/R to compensate. I hardly think he got shit on. In fact it seems more like a hey, you might actually have a chance to survive and do something about him instead of just instantly getting exploded.

Shorter CD on his E doesn't really matter since you always evolve it 2nd usually which means resets every kill/assist anyway. I don't think the nerfs are really dumpstering him at all though, he'll still be very strong. His evolved Q still does soooo much damage since it does the extra % damage.
ps. Looking to grab a new headset, what do you guys suggest?

He said "slight changes to his Q along with some slight buffs to E/R to compensate" and then went on to complain about the character.
The nerfs to his Q are huge. His E is not being slightly buffed. Getting 2 seconds less cooldown on your ability that resets on kill/assist in exchange for a 50% reduction in the AD scaling of that ability is a net nerf. The R changes are changes that will only matter in fringe cases. In almost every situation it will be indistinguishable from before.

Ya, except until you get the 2nd evolve... those 2 seconds can make a difference. I suppose I just don't value the extra damage as much on his E, but I suppose with the Q nerfs it could come in to play more than I figured, I will give you that one. Not really a complaint , more of an observation as I usually am not in a position to get ripped, however, I do see many people get caught and instantly exploded. In that same vein though, having to potentially auto attack once or twice or having to chase to finish with another Q could end up letting a person survive.

The nerf to his Q looks like a pretty huge swing of the nerfbat compared to what we're used to seeing. Added on top of the E damage nerf and that reduces his 'assassin' status quite a bit, he was already borderline melee dqs/squishy bruiser in matches that weren't one-sided. Since his burst went down, he most likely has to rely on more sustained damage. Doing sustained damage requires either safety from being ranged or from stats. He doesn't have either of those so it who knows what they're doing. The 'buffs' to his ult are essentially meaningless since the stealth is so short (and, much like akali, highly susceptible to the new oracle lense if your enemy isn't retarded).
Is he just the last remaining competitive assassin that isn't Kassadin? Seems weird.

Mostly. Now that Rengar is dead and Kass is getting his rework it's down to scyther and fizz really.

Rioted stated at the start of S3 they wanted assassins to be better even though they always nerf assassins that are good at killing people. So assassins were indeed better but they've been slowly getting demolished since the end of the season.
I know Kha gets pretty snowbally but I really liked how he was an assassin that was still always relevant versus all the fat assholes people were playing.
