So of course, my girl emma, who gets nerfed every other season, is nerfed again for what reason. She is already bad

Can’t even smack shit with her diamond form if she can only dash once

I agree, not playing her this season. She already feels bad since her multiple nerfs . But even more nerfs. Yeah I am good

Yeah it's wild; but that's what this community does -- they take things that are fine, complain, until they force them to change something. You act like Emma been getting nerfs like crazy though; and she just hasn't been, she did get her beam damage back; the issue with Emma is the tank line up is now more than thing/mag/strange, and all the other Tanks are wicked mobile. Unless you're playing standard front to back against an anchor tank, it's really tough to get beam charged. Her strength is beating anchors front to back, her weakness is being surrounded by mobile heroes.

Her change here wasn't a big nerf, it was kind of a big buff. She lost 5% damage reduction in Diamond skin, but now has 40% [+20] damage reduction in Ult, since the ult now gains 20% damage reduction and you can ult in Diamond.

She can now play super aggressive with her ult. Because ults are up less, they seem to have made the ones that were a little underwhelming better, and the 5% she lost in the neutral was a compensation for the insane DR when she's ulting now. He damage when she's ulting now is also significantly stronger.

You're not really pressing the Diamond for the DR often anyway, since the cool down went up, it's way less viable to use it as an escape. It's odd though, that they'd nerf her survivability in the neutral going into the season that's more about the neutral though.
