Kha'Zix players, what would you think of the following change to his evolutions?

Essentially, while you choose less evolutions per game, the evolutions you choose become more meaningful. You'll retain your ability to spec into whatever your team needs for the game, and probably be better at each individual spec, but you wouldn't be able to just toss down E, Q, and R evolutions and be good like he can on live.

What do you think?

Seeing how there are currently four aspects of Khazix to evolve, that would mean six possible combinations on top of those (QW, QE, QR, WE, WR and ER, assuming order is irrelevant), which sounds like it would step into burden of knowledge territory. I also think the degree to which picking those two evolutions would count as "specialization" is somewhat questionable (does a QE Kha'Zix differ that radically from a QR Kha'Zix?).

Personally, I'd go the other way and make Kha's evolution system a little closer to Viktor's, where he'd upgrade his basic abilities in sequence and automatically buff his ultimate at level 16. Currently, balancing Kha's evolutions is always difficult because they need to be equally successful in order to have equal pick rates, but Kha's builds inevitably coalesce into a fixed combination and leave the remaining one in the dust, forcing another set of rebalances even when Kha's evolutions were mostly okay. Balancing Kha around the knowledge that he'll always have four evolutions by level 16 would make it a lot easier to give him a cohesive set of full abilities, as well as enable better synergy between his evolved skills.
