May i ask why? why a 47% win rate champion is getting nerfed meanwhile janna is sitting at 53% win rate since 6 months, and blitzcrank is stil toxic and riot is nerfing alistar?

So that is easier for players with a bit of latency to dodge distant charges, and is easier for alistairs with a bit of latency to land the cc. Might serve some compensation tho, like cdr or mana.

prob, would've been nice if they make it a skill shot, like they did on pbe..

He's not nerfed, they just reduced the speed of the W+Q combo, so people with pings over 150+ can have better times performing it...but for people with low latency yea it feels kinda like a nerf, but overall is not that big of a deal.

the speed actually doesn't matter that much because its targeted anyway, but I recently had quite a bit of trouble doing the WQ combo, it used to be way easier. So this is acually a QoL Buff.

the speed matters because you can dodge his W with any movement spell

No you can't, it's targetted.

It will just increase his range and he will hit non the less.

At worst it modifies the knockback angle a bit.
