Just REVERT all of your AHRI changes; do this instead
This pattern of changing the identity of a champion who was in an excellent spot, then nerfing them to the ground because people don't know the new champion, is horrendous.
You want a kite mage? MAKE A NEW ONE. Leave existing champions alone. How many times have I read about Riot saying that when they buff/nerf a champion they want to keep their identity intact? Lucien, Lee Sin, Zed, etc... literally every other time. So why change Ahri's identity? Then after 1 week of a high win rate (which is rapidly dropping as the idiots finally learn to NOT chase her in most circumstances) you decide to nerf her?
Anyways, what you should do?
Re-instate old Ahri - you know, the one with 20% damage amplification on her E. Having this DOESN'T PREVENT HER BEING PLAYED AS A KITE MAGE, it just allows her to stay as an assassin too. Now, if you feel she really needs a buff because DFG was removed (and as a semi-main Ahri, I honestly think she didn't, she was fine without DFG), put a SMALL movement speed boost ON HER W. Make it only last while the foxfires are orbiting her. Problem solved. She can be a kite mage with her W if that's what people want. It prevents her W from being a super boring skill. It buffs her unilaterally without taking anything away, meaning she can stay as an assassin if that's what people want. Any issues with her winning too much? Lower the MS on the W so you DON'T TOUCH THE CHARACTER SHE WAS BEFORE.
Seriously... some things are so simple and yet you pay so many developers so much to just make something complicated that messes it all up.
