Kennen Q update

So I started playing Kennen again recently and I've realized his laning is pretty bad so thought of a way that would help and that is making it so his Q goes through minions but each one it goes through cuts the Q Dmg by 10% for the next target and so on down to a minimum of 50% dmg or if it goes through even one minion it goes right down to 50% but it always stops on the first champion it hits this would give his lane a bit more poke well keeping his late game unchanged let me know what all you guys think :)

Very badly needed. Definitely. Too many new releases have ranged resourceless manaless wave-clear as it is coughGnarcough.

His laning isn't that bad, but the split-push or outpush(top lane vs picks like Irelia or Aatrox) is. It's really hard to mantain his E properly since it gives you so many options from push, escape, skillshots avoiding to strong engage. I guess this Q change could give Kennen bigger margin of mistake against some champions like Zed or Riven (even though you can counter both of them, once you make atleast tiny mistake you can see your health bar going from 100 to 0). However I think you forgot that Kennen still can max W and use Q only for MotS. MotS apllied by Q should also affect dmg from W. If your enemy already has 2 MotS and you want to trigger stun by using Q the stun duration should also be reduced.

Kennen is just out of Meta, but he's a really rewarding pick for those who main him. Btw his winrate is very good atm.
