Regarding Ashes new passive against slow immune targets

> Ashe's basic attacks always deal bonus damage to slowed targets, replacing her ability to critically strike. Bonus damage increases with her critical strike chance.

Does this then mean that she deals no bonus damage against slow immune targets such as Olaf or Master Yi during their ultimates, thereby nullifying her critical strike stats? i.e. will she deal less damage against these targets?

Hm. Interesting. They've since clarified that it's not actually based on all slows and instead only works off of her own passive slow, so they probably COULD split the debuff into two parts to make her damage stay against Olaf/Yi. I have no idea if they will think to do so or want to do so, though, or what it's like now on PBE

yes, atm she looses the crit bonus vs olaf, yi and morganas black shield.

Eh I'm not really to against this. Right now it's like 3 champs that can stop it, of those only 1 really sees real play(morgana), and having a counter in lane isn't that bad, not to mention most supports like Thresh/Annie/Lulu/Nami/etc tend to do enough to break the shield letting Ashe crit again. To me it's a reasonable weakness for a champ that will crit 100% of the time otherwise, even if the crit is a bit less than normal her consistent damage will still be extremely strong.

This seems really dumb. Ashe shouldn't have counters that counter her that hard. She's like already demoted to a champion that you pick as the 10th pick or not at all pretty much because of this.
