Would it make Ashe overpowered if she had an escape?

I was suggesting that maybe adding to Ashe's Hawkshot so that when she fires it, she does a backwards jump. If you have ever played SMITE, then you will know who I am talking about. Neith and Ashe are very similar but Neith has an escape which only allows her to jump backwards, away from a fight. Maybe this idea could work for Ashe as well.

I ask this because I have seen many cool fan arts where Ashe is jumping with her bow and shooting an arrow so it could be a cool thing to add and would help her compete with the likes of Kalista and Lucian who are very mobile ADC's.

If the jump was locked so you could only jump backwards then I do not believe it would be overpowered. What do people think?

And make it do damage and lower the cd to 10s.

I can get behind this idea.

ashe is already a decent pick in master and challenger.

actually shes strong in general. and yes, a dash coupled with her passive would be broken as fuck.

Aims behind her Dashes forward

Mechanics of "only jump backward" (which way is backward?) aside, Ashe doesn't need an escape, because yes, she would probably be overpowered.

If you want to play a mobile Ashe, play blue build Ezreal.
