Making Kayle... into Kayle.

There's tons of comments about her kinda... winning every game that's more than 24 min.

I've thought of a minor solution to this? Kinda?

Route A: Gangplank Clause

Kayle will REMAIN a melee champion, however her E will switch with her W.

Starfire Spellblade on Q Radiant Blast on W Celestial Blessing on E.

The cooldown will be reduced severely from 8 seconds to 8/7/6/5/4 seconds, mana cost is 50 at all ranks. Level 11 buff will instead just increase her basic attack range and the range of Starfire Spellblade. Level 16 buff will change the %missing health portion into true damage.

Route B: OG Clause

Kayle remains melee, E is a 4/5/6/7/8 second buff which changes based on level.

how does that make her different from pre rework kayle? you guessed it you are making an argument to revert kayle who automatically won early game as she won late game as well the champion didn't change at all riot just gave her an actual abusable weakness early game currently that weakness isn't strong enough since she can safely still farm at range due to her 2 ranged low mana cost abilities

if her E scales with range as she does then she easily becomes what riot intended her to be

And that would actually do something. Fleet works well (and it will possibly be her primary keystone once the new nerfs come in) with her because during the lane phase until 11, she's melee, therefore she gets the melee version of the healing. This means she can sustain off of minions better than ranged users due to being melee with range capabilities. I foresee a build that includes Stormrazor at some point (especially with the buff that increases the energize bonuses to 35% from 30%. Think about it with the buffs added in:

Storm increases the effects of Energize bonuses by 35%, which means Fleet's healing and Movespeed are increased by 35%. This also means Rapid Firecannon's range boost gets increased by 35%, and coupled with it's ability to make energized attacks charge 25% better, she can chase people down at level 16+ with almost full build and fucking smoke people while healing like crazy.
