You know what I thought about Ashe when she was pick / ban?
I thought that, you know, if her ult did 100 less damage, and her W cost a little more mana, she'd be a PERFECTLY balanced champ!
... yeah. Said no one ever.
So, instead of nerfing her bullshit Q and her bullshit passive, you nerf irrelevant parts of her kit that really do absolutely nothing for Ashe being overbearing. Sure is fun watching Ashe (who was MASSIVELY behind, by the way) push Q and melt through my entire team's health despite all the shields and whatnot I have as Lulu, exhausting her, using Locket, and polymorphing her. Wasn't enough to keep her from just destroying my team.
But hey, she's better now! So is Hecarim! Trust us, we care about way more than just money -- it shows in everything we do!
