@Stashu's New Rework. My Thoughts.
First off, I'd like to say I hated Stashu's first rework. He completely ruined Cassiopeia and refused to communicate. That irritated me. And the fact that he thought he was still right, and that we were wrong, ooh boy was that not a smart move...Anyways the original Cassiopeia was better in some regards, but this one is better in others. This passive, I thought it was complete and utter trash. (I'd still prefer a new one actually) But after trying this new Cassiopeia... I must say I really like this rework. Hear me out first and give new Cassiopeia a decent chance.
I feel like Stashu has gotten rid of mana issues for the most part, I don't see myself having issues like I did before, and if I do I just e farm the wave. With new Cassiopeia I've denied so much CS to the enemy, she feels like the lane bully that she once was, while putting down decent damage at the same time. Cassiopeia can 1v2 enemies once more, and when she gets ahead she can really take advantage of it.
I don't feel constricted anymore by the stupid passive, in fact I barely feel it. I'm laying down good damage, and I think the passive is actually helping Cassiopeia scale into the late game.
The 20% movement speed boost definitely helps her early game, it's pretty hefty.
I think this rework was a pretty good success, there's still things that need to be adjusted/added, but it's pretty good compared to the state that it was in before.
@Stashu, whether you see this post or not. You're a goddamn stubborn fool about the stupid passive. But that stubbornness surprisingly worked, nice job, and I know the community hasn't been the nicest to you, so nice job keeping your cool, I can't imagine the stress you went through. But props to you for getting it mostly right. But if you want this rework to work, you HAVE to add an indicator showing which targets the poison is 20/40% Stronger on. It's so confusing knowing whether or not the target is actually e'd or not, many times I'm wondering if the e is actually working or not. This is essential, trust me.
This post may get down voted to oblivion mostly because a lot of people don't like the way Stashu is heading, and saying I like it, is not good for upvotes :p I feel like this is needed.
And here's my proof, although I've only played 3 games with her, I feel she's in a good spot now. First Game: 19-2-5 Second Game: 10-4-1 Third Game: 20-9-8
You can as well look up my Match History if you don't believe me.
keep Your mind open and Give Cassiopeia a chance.
