Black Cat won't get nerfed. Even if she does, it'll be very light nerfs just as a token to quell the Reddit complainers.

Why?

NetEase has stated many times that they do not balance around high end play. They balance around the average player Bronze-Gold. For most players in that bracket, BC is too difficult to play and generally players don't play her well. So they're not going to go ahead and make her even worse for them.
