Revert her to pre-6.14.

6.18 is when she became basically unplayable. The change to vector casting in 6.14 was fine, even the nerf to unraveled earth was fine, it's removing her bonus damage to creeps that ruined her. They added it the first patch after her release for a reason, completely removing it just brought her back down to how weak she was at launch.

Removing the W lockout, adding the bonus damage in the first place, and changing W casting to vector casting were all entirely unnecessary, and were the sole reasons she was gutted as a result afterwards, as those particular changes made her too generalist. Hence, her numbers had to be nerfed into absolute trash to make up for it, similar to just about every other generalist champion.

The vector cast is a pain but doesn't really need to be removed. The main problem is the lockout on w being removed which forced them to nerf her because the e w combo isn't as telegraphed. The bonus damage to minions was a bit much early but I agree that removing it was overkill. Maybe they should have had it scale with points in q.

I actually prefer vector casting to the original cast type personally, but I could use either to about the same degree of effectiveness. I called it from the day they put the changes on the pbe though that removing the W lockout would make her incredibly op and they would nerf her in turn, and it happened. Then when they completely removed her increased damage to creeps, I thought it would have made a lot more sense to either tone it down since 50% was a bit much, or scale it with level. Unfortunately they needed to azir her to avoid her being pick/ban.

she's balanced now. People that abused her OP crap back then want it back of course.

No.

Agreed, there is no real reason to pick her when other mages are simply easier to play and much more reliable. I think there is many routes they can take with buffing her but I would prefer if her E didn't fall off so much , especially if you are behind or went even .
