Now Introducing... Our Balance Plan for Tristana
So, we've seen many complaints in the past couple of months about
, so we've decided that we have to address it.
We've decided, based on community input, that
's Explosive Shot is just too strong during lane phase, so we are replacing it with something that we believe will put her closer to the place where we envision her as an Auto Attack oriented Marksman.
Behold
's new E:
's attacks gain range and deal a percent of the target's maximum Health as Magic Damage.
Basic attacks gain 130/150/170/190/210 range and deal additional Physical Damage equal to 2/3/4/5/6% (+2.5% Bonus Attack Damage / +1% Ability Power)% of the enemy's maximum Health (Max: 100 Damage vs Monsters). Lasts 8 seconds.
We believe that this change will solidify
's main strengths, while also making sure that she can't just get up in your face and win every trade during laning phase.

As you may have noticed, this ability is considerably similar to Kog'Maw's W, but trust us, it is not the same at all.
