Hey everyone,

I’ve been thinking a lot about K’Sante’s current state, and I feel like his E is what makes him too strong in certain situations, especially in pro play. The ability to dash to allies (even over walls) and then engage with W gives him way too much mobility, making him harder to punish than he should be. At the same time, Riot removed his old W direction change, which took away a lot of his skill expression and outplay potential.

Proposed Changes:

• Bring Back Old W – Let him change direction mid-charge again, making him feel more fluid and rewarding for high-skill players.
• Rework His E – Remove his current ally dash and shield mechanic. Instead, make it more like Riven’s E—a simple dash with a self-shield, so he still has mobility but without the insane engage potential.

Why This Would Be Better:

• Less Frustrating Mobility – Right now, dashing to allies (even over walls) makes K’Sante way too slippery, especially in pro play where coordinated teams abuse this mechanic to reposition instantly. A simple self-dash would still give him mobility but without making him impossible to lock down.
• More Rewarding Playstyle – Bringing back his old W would mean players have to rely on smart positioning and mechanics instead of just using E to get the perfect engage for free.
• Keeps Him True to His Identity – K’Sante was designed as a tank-skirmisher hybrid, meaning he should be durable but still have some outplay potential. The problem is that his current E gives him too much free mobility, making him feel more like a highly mobile bruiser rather than a balanced tank-skirmisher.

If Riot brings back his old W direction change and removes the ally dash from his E, he would still have mobility, but in a way that requires more skill and commitment—instead of just dashing to allies for free repositioning. K’Sante was meant to skirmish, but not in a way that lets him escape or engage too easily without risk. These changes would make him feel more fair to play against while still rewarding skillful play.

Let’s make our voices heard—bring back old W, rework E, and save our champion! Do not let K’Sante suffer the same fate as Zeri, going from a fun, high-skill champion to an overnerfed, unrecognizable version of what he once was!
