5.3 Ahri Rework: Q scaling Overlook
Hello,
I'd like to make a quick discussion on the
Ahri Q which has been over-buffed since her rework. If you land the front of your Q right now it is very easy land back side. I did a quick check in game and her rank 1 Q gives her a 65% movement speed buff. Being half again as fast as any player in the game makes it much easier to land the backside of her Q which procs as true damage.
Back before the rework it was very difficult to land a the front and backside of her Q on a target, and you compensated players for that difficulty by making it scale at 70% of AP and making it half true damage (most similar abilities scale at only 60%). The movement speed buff on her Q makes it much easier to land both sides, but you may have overlooked that it is still scaling as if it were very hard to land at 70% (and half of it is true damage that can't be reduced, my guess is its more like an 75% - 80% depending on a the targets MR rating). As a result pound for pound she can hit harder than you intended. Remember, Half that Q is true damage already so it can't be reduced, and its been made much easier to land now.
I think for an ability with as much utility as it has (Half true damage and granting a large movement speed buff) it should be scaling more in line with other champions. How do you guys feel about this?
