The Xayah nerf on PBE is absolutely savage for a first nerf.

After this nerf her W will be close to the worst spell in the game. Xayah currently maxes it second but after the nerf all you gain is 5% AS per point going from 30% AS to 50% and the spell has 20 seconds cooldown and only 4 seconds of up time.

Tristana Q is a 16 seconds Cooldown with 7 seconds up time. 110% AS.

Realistically this is more than a little overkill for a nerf considering her Q is pretty lackluster mid/late game. Her winrate sits around 50% with a moderate pick rate already.

well thats stupid. 50% win rate should mean "no nerf".

well considering that building 40% cdr isn't uncommon. it would be on a 12 sec cd. xayah has no downtime where you can go in, which is kind of bullshit due to her aids w dmg. they are nerfing it for a good reason.

Dude her W is a Draven Q + W with attack speed without having to catch axes at level 1. All this change does it make the window of vulnerability between the up time of her W and its down time more consistent and wide enough to take advantage of.

Agree with the nerf, Xayah is far too powerful right now.

How are you going to compare a spell that a top tier ADC has to one a garbage tier ADC has?
