Lissandra Buff is Necessary. Allow me to explain.

Mages are fun to play, we all know that! Growing some purple power and throwing it around the rift is always quite fun! And their conventionality for team fights and escapes, well they all have their viable options! Except Lissandra. The best mages are known for their CC conventionality in both dives and escapes. Morgana's Q. Lux's stun and slow. Syndra's Spot Stuns. And even functionality escapes like Ahri's Ult dash, or Kennen's W Boost. Lissandra's capabilities are lacking dramatically. While of her abilities slow, her only viable escape option is her Ult which is only up every 75 seconds or so. I imagine her W was designed to be both a dive mechanism, and an escape tool, but in order for it to meet that purpose, it actually has to help you escape. The casting and active speed on Lissandra's claw is SOOOO SLOW. By time it moves far enough matter, she is squashed out like a bug. I merely suggest an increase in claw casting and sliding speed, and a slight decrease on its cooldown. I want to lane with her. I just can't do it without becoming ice pancakes. Thank you!

I understand what you're saying, but the issue I have with your argument is your seem to be primarily complaining about her escape not letting her escape quick enough. Which I disagree with, It's not a reactive escape, its proactive. Meaning it takes a little bit of strategy. Generally speaking, you don't get jumped by a gap closer and killed before you can cast her escape use her escape. Usually, you'll see a jungler coming (or whoever), cast your escape, as he gap closes to you you use your escape.

I don't think a slight increase on speed with her claw would break her, but I think reduced CD is def not needed.

Lissandra does not need any fkin buffs, a Liss went like 30-7 in one of my games the other day, once she get's ahead there is no stopping her dmg.

Her E is fine as is. If it wasn't her only option for escape and engage, she would have virtually no weaknesses.

You want to make her even more unkillable? Really? W stops melees in their tracks. She's going to Zhonyas not once, but TWICE in team fights and her E is perfectly acceptable as both an escape and an engage.

Be proactive if you think the claw is slow. Ward and get out before they're on top of you. Or, you know, w and then e. That works too.
