It likely won't become a skillshot. That means making Vlad longer range, which changes him completely. That is not their goal.

But my reaction essentially depends on the compensation and how interesting his kit becomes overall. He might not be worth it anymore if Q is the overhaul they make and not E.

All they want to do to Q is make it healthier in laning. That's pretty simple to do without making it a skillshot. Notice Annie Q. Adding costs is a thing.

If Vlad doesn't get total control by level 3, he often has to play his lane very safe. Early costs on Q could make this a very consistent thing without lowering his ability to CS. Remove flat heal, move the ratio to W, scaling with rank. Fixed. Health cost on Q is removed once he reaches another 'gate.'

Hell, you could have it refund the cost if it kills its target.

Be sad Vlad is great for learning how to play both mages, timing abilities, and alternate resource champions No need to make him harder to play.

IMO he's a great champion to learn how to play safe as.

He's also a great champion to learn what you give up by getting certain items, even if they appear good.

An example is item 3065. Sounds good on paper. Terrible in practice. item 3001 is your go-to MR item.
