20% bonus damage and bonus attack speed. a mini twitch ult basically that probably grants more damage but no multi target late game

really overloaded ability combined with her E.

At the very least her R ain't overloaded with a global long range snipe that either has a distance travel stun, a 2 hit high damage scaling, a 'super' high scaling value or a missing health modifier that spreads the dmg to nearby enemies too. That or ones that are a tad less global but are either 'lock on' with only body blocking to 'save' you or able to fire off multiple shots that slow and the '4th' shot deals insane missing health scaling bonus.

I still say its because Xayah is just such a good offensive/counter-offensive champion to screw over most aggressive ADCs like Twitch and Lucian and can easily catch off guard any other ADCs who don't learn to play around her play style by sticking to wave clear then constantly gun for poking trades when she can burst you if you aren't some scum using insanely long range pokes to 'stay far away'.

Most of the power in her R in that matter is mostly a 'dodge tool' to avoid any big hits or all in sort of attacks to and then follow up with a E punishment usually to tear into any enemies who wasted all their abilities which Xayah R escaped leaving them only to having auto attacks to be likely the only thing to 'trade with' with more then likely 2 or more abilities on cool down at that point.

But seriously its the same logic as a Morgana Q, you keep awareness of the champion's location and bring a pair of item 1001 to actually sidestep it like a co-op bot does all the time to frustrate you and they end up wasting mana beyond disrupting you for maybe 1~2 seconds.

That's the same complaint logic as a Tristana Q, the main basis is if she uses it you back up and wait for her to go off cooldown, otherwise throw up a CC or similar measure, that your support buddy should likely be bringing. Her W in the early game is not going to do much and if a Xayah rushes W first then they are likely going to be screwed over because Q is a better poking and wave clear mechanic in so many ways and E which should normally be rushed 2nd is your main CC tool and 'impact burst' tool.

If a Xayah cannot do any direct autos on you, the move bonus on W will not proc meaning she can't keep refreshing it constantly to keep chasing you and if she uses her W to try and harass you in the laning phase, more then likely she is going to receive about 3~7 minions worth of attacks being thrown out at her if she recklessly tries to harass with it and more then likely you would of already or SHOULD be, walking back a bit till your next wave of minions are present if she tries to do it as soon as she 'cleaned up your wave'.

it makes an unhealthy play style. xayah can pretty much do whatever she wants as long as she has basic map awareness because you cannot engage on her if u go on her she will kite back with her w if u dont go on her she will kite foward with her w you cant run from her but she will always outdps you because of the bonus attack speed and the damage amplification and her e stop defending xayah, shes broken rn
