Ahri didnt need compensation for the DFG removal, yet was the first to get undeed buffs?

Like what is going on at your balance team? oh ALL the champions affected by the dfg removal ahri was like the only one who never needed a DFG to start with, but somehow she was the first champ you slapped buffs on, now you are having to retune everything on her WHEN NOTHING NEEDED CHANGING ANYWAYS, meanwhile the champions that did need the buffs like morde get nothing.

So please someone explain to me who is giving the balance team direction? Like literally not a single person with a clue thought ahri needed compensation, but if somehow did think she could use a little why was she the first to get it when so many more champions needed it? Who made the call first thing we need to do is buff ahri it is critical!

This is why many player like myself struggle to have faith in your development team. Meanwhile urgot? or the neutered warwick? or teemo? Or singed?, or mordekaiser? Or MF... BUT YOU RUSH TO BUFF AHRI YOU WILD LEVEL OF POWER who was fine to start with? mind boggling. now you are tweeking her entire kit because you make a knee jerk poorly thought out buff to give a incredibly mobile champ even more mobility?

I agree with the mobility. She has 3 built in flashes.

Then riot decided to give her more speed....

WTF...

She wasn't a priority from a balance perspective, although she probably would have been weak without changes. She was a priority from a design perspective. Ahri ate a playstyle-destroying nerf as a result of DFG. Removing it gave Riot the opportunity to return her to the original design intent.

This rework came out overtuned. That happens fairly often with new launches. It'll get fixed, and Ahri will be a more interesting, more unique champion after she gets balanced.

Ahri would not have been weak without the DFG, her full combo worked just as well with or without the dfg, all the DFG did was allow ahri cheese for bad players. Press DFG press your 2 abilties that automatically target people for you and you would kill a squishy. Literally that is why the DFG is being removed it allowed people to cheese and insta gib squishies without even landing a full rotation or a critical part of their kit.
