Upcoming Janna Buffs

So, Riot has said that they plan on buffing the damage on her W and her passive due to Janna genuinely being pretty weak as of late. As somebody who has played, and mained, this champion for almost 2 years, I can say with full certainty that these buffs are the last thing she needs.

Don't get me wrong, she needs buffs, but just not to her damage. While turning the passive up to 35% at all levels is a good idea, due to it taking awhile before she really gets her highest potential movement speed, this is a bit to much, and the W buff is completely unnecessary. It's a point and click ability, with already decent range, damage, and a low mana cost, it doesn't need a single buff. What Janna does need is a buff to is her shield, which is the reason why she has fallen behind.

After season 7, during season 8 preseason, they nerfed all the Enchanter items, which was necessary due to them being a little OP, however, about 6 or so patches ago, they also nerfed all shield champions, due to so many people complaining about them. Janna was hit the hardest, having her E cooldown increased from 10 seconds to 18 seconds at first rank, as well as changing it from shielding for 5 whole seconds, to having a .75 second grace period then diminishing over the next 4 seconds. Janna's shield is a vital part of her kit, and as important to her as Soraka's heals are to her kit.

As a Janna main of almost 2 years, this is what I think would be best for her;

• Buff the damage gained from movement speed to 30% at all levels, but keep her W the same since the buff to her passive is already an indirect buff to her W.

• Change her E cooldown from 18/16/14/12/10 to 14/13/12/11/10, increasing its use in lane without being to oppressive. (Also, before anybody thinks that's to much of a buff, just remember that her E was originally at a 10 second cooldown at all ranks)

• Instead of giving her E a .75 second grace period before diminishing over the next 4 seconds, have it shield, without diminishing over time, for 3.5 seconds.

I understand that Riot has been trying to push Janna into a more offensive playstyle, which I appreciate, I just hope they don't completely ruin her defense in the process. I started playing Janna because I genuinely enjoy shielding people, I think it's so fun to shield rather than heal, and I just hope they keep her in a place where I can decide if I want to play her offensive or defensive, instead of being forced into one or the other.
