Swain's W

I never really had a huge problem with the nerf, but I feel this might be a good opportunity to discuss something that I feel Swain needs, especially considering the incoming nerf.

W has always been an ability that was pretty hard to hit. That's what kept it somewhat balanced. It was a high risk/high reward ability. You risk losing that CD (and the associated threat) for a long time if you miss it.

Now, it isn't really high reward unless you level it. My thought then, was that maybe the activation time could get lowered a little? It's pretty long for a root ability. Again, that was okay with a long root, but with a shortened one I'm not so sure. Anyone care to poll it up to gauge interest in a slightly easier to land skillshot on that?
