Katarina rework (Hybrid Ap-Ad Assassin)

General objectives: • Reinforcing her theme and fantasy of "magical ninja" • Changing her play pattern a bit (keeping what's cool), but removing the "wait the 1 moment to do a pentakill" thing. wich is frustrating to play as and to play against.

To do so i would change her general kit from AP assassin, to Hybrid ad/ap (after all she still literally murders you with knives) and i would give her a resource bar, Mana would be okay (DON'T FREAK OUT!)

So let's see her kit: Passive: 2 components: The first is the one we all know where she gets resets on kills and assists (that's the core of her gameplay after all). But this time it doesn't reset your W (why? i get to it later) The second one is like this: Everytime you score a kill or assist your spells cost 0 mana for the next X seconds

Q: Similar to live, with ad/ap scaling, a (very low) mana cost, but the effect slightly changes: The mark is consumed ONLY by autoattacks and not your spells, but doing so will grant you 1 charge of your W (we will get to it now). Also popping the mark with the autoattack will grant a good amount of burst damage.

W: similar to live, but it is now a more independent spammable spell that does not rely on the marks you apply with your Q. Basically now it has a mana cost (not high) and a CHARGE SYSTEM (like cait traps). Max 3 charges. (still hybrid ratio). Medium CD for gaining charges.

E: The shunpo we all know and love only get slight changes: High mana cost, still reduce damage you take, and will increase your movement speed by 30% for 2 seconds.

R: Exact same as it is now, but it will now slow all enemies hit by 20%. Also all enemies hit will be marked (like you mark enemies with tour Q). also mana cost :D

What does this accomplish? The idea behind all this is to mantain the type of gameplay that kata players like but letting you more freedom to do different choices. Also less frustrating for the enemies. Basically with this rework, you would have to mange a bit your mana, so you always have to choose wisely when to use shunpo for going in or out, but this also allow you to do diffrent things. You can still harrass with the Q, or farm with it, but you can also now try to trade safely when you shunpo thanks to the movement speed. Remember that is slightly more autoattack focused this version of kata, so you have to take into account that too.

Let's see how many different executes you could choose! In 1v1 you have 2 ways to apply the mark to a target both your Q and your ulti. that already change your pattern. Then you can Shunpo to a target ----> W to consume 1 charge ---> autoattack to consume the mark and regain 1 charge on W -----> spam 3 more times W for the execute.

Or you could do this: get near a target -----> Ulti -----> Shunpo ----> auto attack ---->W --- > Q ---> autoattack---> 3 W.

In teamfights you also have to choose where to consume your W charges (all on one target to burst it down or wait a reset and use them to another enemy)

Well this is a bit of an overload of information, would love to get feedback^^
