Ashe Q changes completely worthless
Recent change to Ashe's Q in a nutshell: -Volley and Enchanted Arrow no longer applies stacks of Ranger's Focus
- Can ONLY activate Ranger's Focus at 5 stacks
- Removed CD
As "useful" as it is having no cooldown, it is borderline worthless in lane, and only slightly more effective out of lane.
Assume you have 1.00 attack speed in lane (generosity at it's finest) it will take you a minimum of 5 seconds to get any use out of this manadump. Since most trades don't last 5 seconds, and most all in's will be over (or close to over) before you can reach the necessary stacks. They only last four seconds so assuming you aren't autopushing your lane it is difficult to keep up your stacks, especially between waves.
Given that Ashe already has a spell with no combat value ( Her E ), these recent nerfs to her Q give her only 1 non ultimate spell to fight with. Her base AD and her AS aren't anything noteworthy so I can't understand why she got nerfed.
Let's look at lategame teamfights then.
Her AD is one of the lowest (understandable since she gets damage from crit) and you still need at least 5 auto attacks to activate one of your two non ultimate combat skills.
Currently it seems like Ashe playstle is "Spam Volley to poke them down, ult someone out of position, realize you ran out of mana and become worthless"
