Did it ever occur to your balance team riot that maybe making ahri into a kite mage was bad?

Including with her overall kit?????

She was better off being an assassin then what she is right now.

I love the new Ahri,

I disagree. New Q is vastly more fun than old E.

New Ahri will still be more fun and skill testing after inevitable nerfs.

I disagree. Because it's what she's supposed to be from the beginning.

This kite mage Ahri isn't a rework. It's a REVERSION back to what she was on release. She was only made into an Assassin solely because DFG made it impossible to balance her otherwise.

Her problem is that they bug fixed her R and her W while also making her a lot more forgiving and easier to play without doing anything to weaken her power

What are you talking about? She lost dfg and charm, that's a huge damage dropoff.

She still does a large amount of damage akin to a mage, just not as quick and as bursty as an assassin. Her overall combo and pattern is a lot easier to do now and you aren't forced to land your charm to do anything useful.

Well, to be fair, she's a Mage/Assassin, so having her main focus in combat being harass while positioning to shut down a priority target is pretty much exactly what they were selling when they first released Ahri.

I actually find her kit tweak a lot better, her w and r is more reliable and her q's ms allows her to run away and kite. (and everything that Cynicalgiant said) :D
