Can We like just Remove all dashes

Replace the dashes with enough movespeed to cover the same distance :> that way slows are actual slows since dashes/blinks dont even get stopped by slows when its clearly "slow"

I dont get why slows exist when they dont even slow dashes or blinks when they're clearly movement abilities

Because dashes/blinks are meant to counter slows. So many champions have a slow it's not even funny. People with slows, like Ashe are good at keeping people at bay if they rely on MS bonuses (like Lulu or Orianna) or keeping people from escaping if they've already blown their dashes. Nobody would ever catch an Ashe as long as she had mana if there were no dashes in the game.

We have Tenacity, QSS, Crucible, Cleanse, Ghost, Boots of Swiftness, Talisman etc.

Counters for slows already exist in game. I like OPs idea

Umm half of those aren't counters to slows. Talisman isn't a counter to a slow, Boots of Swiftness isn't a counter to a slow, Ghost isn't a counter to a slow. Notice how most counters to a slow (dashes/blink) are on cooldowns that aren't 200 seconds. If Ashe can slow you every autoattack, if any mage can build a rylai's, if any ADC can build a frozen mallet, then it's not fair that nobody should be able to catch up to them ever.

You also have abilities like Leona's E which is a skillshot dash and wouldn't make sense any other way. In fact she'd probably be ridiculously overpowered if she got a huge MS boost so that nobody could try to sidestep her stun.

Counters for dashes already exist in game too so it's not like they're OP. You got Snares, Roots, Stuns, Silences. You also have in game walls like Azir's ult that don't allow most dashes through.
