Qiyana and other champion interactions.

So I know this is a bit of a reach, but hear me out. I LOVE Qiyana's kit I do. HOWEVER one thing I notice is the lack of gameplay her kit has in certain areas of the map. For instance if you're stuck under a tower you'll never get a river buff and be able to utilize her stun, or for that matter bushes. The same could be said for teamfights depending on where they're located.

So I don't know how hard it would be to write the code, but what if certain champs dropped shards... or even puddles or areas on the map that Qiyana could w to. I don't know if this would make her broken or not but it would definitely be QOL that would enable her to be more useful.

Some examples I thought of were Nami, Anivia, even pyke dropping pools of water on the ground after certain abilities were used (wall melting , nami bubble, pyke E.) This would make her better in aram, TTL where there is no water on the map. SR it could be used to combo into different team comps.

It could also make for some interesting counter picks if someone chose one of those characters. Making her a little more viable.

Like I said I know this is a reach but maybe this could somehow be implemented in some form? Without an extreme in coding to make it work?

Qiyana needs a lot of decision making when playing her, and her having an actual drawback when being pushed out unlike Zed is actually a good thing.

If she pushes you at your tower, she has room to maneuver around and get what element she wants, and that gives her a solid power level, making her stronger than quite a bunch of champions at the same level as her, so obviously her losing River access when she's behind in lane will balance than and actually force the player to play smarter, like, get Bush, use the trail to get access to River, then combo off.

I'm actually glad that now we have an assassin that loses power when behind, unlike the edge lord supreme who seems to have as a game plan to be pushed in early.

She has to be aggressive, she has to play "follow the leader" where she's supposed to lead, if she can't, she's punished and needs to play smart, if she can, she has the power to 1v2 quite easily.
