Leblanc W nerf deserved but still some problems regarding this

When I first read the 7.5 patch notes I got really angry because of my Leblanc's W nerf, but after a few games with her (more then a few in the past week) I jumped to the conclusion that the nerf was well deserved. Leblanc is indeed a super strong champion with amazing kit witch makes her a super strong assassin. In my opinion, even if wanted her damage to remain the same as before the patch, is true that she had too much damage on all skills. In a situation where normally Leblanc should leave the fight and run for her life, because of her W damage she can use it to engage and kill the opponent. This thing might not be fair and I truly understand. Not good to use her escape as a kill weapon not to mention the AoE damage (W in 3 enemies and Q after 2.5 seconds and you had a big chance to make a triple kill with that). I am concerned about her super early laning phase especially the super early game and maybe somewhere between min. 5 to min. 12 where she really need to have 10 extra damage on her W at level one. This is extremely important without it her early game gets odd and you feel powerless. Because of this thing I found farming the first waves, witch is important for her because at level 4 if you feel strong enough you can try to kill your opponent, very hard and it changes the focus on farming instead of your opponent movements and jungle location.

What I am proposing is a little tune of the damage and I am thinking like this:

50/60/70/85/100

I don't care how much damage her W does, honestly. I rarely use it for damage. I use it as either a marker or gap closer. Generally, I max her Q first because it's easier for getting gold, which is good for LeBlanc's mid game when I start maxing my E, because it will one shot.
