Let's talk about Hawkshot

So Hawkshot has always been a personal pet peeve of mine. Completely my own opinion I realize, but the fact that Ashe has an ability (active) that with proper warding and map awareness I can largely go without using for an entire game is frustrating for me. The gold passive change (1/2/3/4/5->3) is great don't get me wrong, but it also means I have absolutely no reason to level Hawkshot until I am absolutely required to.

What I'm trying to get at is there needs to be a reason to use Hawkshot that Blue trink, wards, shrooms or general map awareness won't do. If you recognize my name I tried doing a similar post earlier in the month with this same request, and I got a lot of great ideas as well as feedback on my own. Through this I realized simplicity is the key, as well as attention to the current meta-pains of the new season.

As such, how about this: Hawkshot's AoE gives true vision for the duration. Simple, easy, doesn't change the ability almost at all, but does provide Ashe a niche as a possible counter against a stealth comp. There are tuning balances that can happen such as reducing the AoE or increasing the travel time or increasing the cooldown, but this change is essentially a long range . This will make Hawkshot have a use case other than "I wonder if someone's over there" but it can still be used for that without feeling like a sacrifice.

I can justify all day long, but what matters is feedback and thoughts. What do you think about this idea?
