Kindred loses 10 base damage off her Q but gains double scaling

Maybe it's a buff. Maybe it's Maybelline
It's not meant to be a nerf, it's meant to be a rescaling. Nerf her early game and buff her late game some in exchange.
This is trying to weaken her early game if she's not building any early AD items. She usually only builds a Maw for raw AD right now, so she would have less damage until she finished the Maw, and even then she would only gain 1 damage on the Q. Overall, it's almost definitely a power decrease, although not a huge one.
It´s probably a way to force Kindred back into the Warrior enchant and less into Devourer.
Less base damage but double the ratio? I just look at Warrior and salivate now.
