It will be noticeable.

E change means he can max Q or W now and have decent wave clear.

Q means he will have more Zone control. His CDs are longer,. which means his windows to retaliate against him are bigger, and he is forced into these windows more now that his Ults cost increases as he leaves it on, on top of the coolsown being longer, which means he can't change back as often once he flips it off.

It will be a noticable massive nerf, they are essentially cutting swain's ultimate damage in half and his sustain in half.
