MF still isn't "viable"

I really appreciate Riot paying attention to Miss Fortune, but her latest mini-rework didn't quite hit the spot. I feel like she could be in a MUCH better, more balanced place with a few tweaks.

What do y'all think?

Impure Shots

Passive is now applied by dealing damage with any of Miss Fortune's abilities or basic attacks.
Attack speed bonus reverted to 30 / 35 / 40 / 45 / 50% from 20 / 30 / 40 / 50 / 60%.
Active now grants Strut at full power for the effect's entire duration.
- Gives Strut's full 70 bonus MS for 6 seconds; cannot be removed prematurely.

Make It Rain

Total magic damage reduced to 60 / 120 / 180 / 240 / 300 (+ 80% AP) from 90 / 145 / 200 / 255 / 310 (+ 80% AP).
Damage and slow interval reduced to 0.5 seconds from 0.25 seconds.
Now strikes enemies up to 4 times over 2 seconds instead of up to 8 times over 2 seconds.
This change does not affect total damage.

I think she is a lot better off than the bruisers and tanks are gonna be when this armor nerf comes into effect.

I think she needs more damage in her ult and delete the cast on her E

Her rework was ok, but she needed more than ok to be viable. I think Make It Rain is way better and is now good. Double up has always been good. But Impure Shots and Bullet Time have always been the areas for improvement.

I understand Riot is getting rid of Grievous Wounds, so why not go in the other direction. Make Impure Shots give MF some bonus lifesteal during the AS buff. That would allow her to duel with the other ADCs.

As for Bullet Time, it's slightly better than it was before, but it's still underpowered. MF is rooted during the ult, so it is very high risk, and the ult is pretty easy to move out of. So the damage needs to be increased across the board on it. That would be the reward to balance the risk.

Bump.

What does everyone think of MF in her current state?

Personally, I feel like I'm pleased with her E now. Maybe it was just me, but I felt like the previous Make It Rain didn't do much. Or maybe it's the bullet indentations that makes me feel like it's doing actual damage now. I always max out Double Up first, then Make It Rain, and finally start working on her Impure Shots when everything else is maxed out. If her W granted Strut immediately, I would definitely put a point in it early game, just to chase down enemies better (actually...to escape faster). Miss Fortune's passive turns off with just a basic autoattack, and I think that it makes it that much harder to dart in and out of fights fast. If Strut was activated with any of her abilities, that would be great for her. Also, Bullet Time is great against squishy champions, but against tanks...not even a dent. I hate that she has to be rooted during her ult; enemies can typically get close enough to squash her by then, especially the tanks. Sometimes I accidentally cancel her ult in the first couple bullet waves because everyone's just running towards me and I have to run. Survival is better than taking half a small block of HP off a champion that has like 5k HP. Still...gotta love Miss Fortune! One other thing-RIOT PLEASE GIVE HER RED HAIR AGAIN IN HER SPLASH ART. To quote a YouTube League streamer, we don't want "burnt, mahogany hair". MissFortune
