SIVIR - W REWORK CONCEPT
Hey guys! Id like to start this discussion by mentioning the reasons why Sivir is played a lot in LoL competitions (LCS/LCK), high elo, pro players and so on...
- Her ult, perfect for engages and disengages, good for moving faster to objectives and team fighting;
- Her mobility, granted by her passive and ult;
- Her E, perfect for laning phase, where a Thresh hook can make the difference between a lost or a won lane + it gives you mana;
- Her damage in duels, from her Q that deals more damage on single targets and the W auto-attack animation cancel;
- Last but not least, her DAMAGE IN TEAM FIGHTS granted by her W, that bounces to nearby enemies and can critically strike (the reason of this discussion), and her Q that deals area of effect damage. In general, she is the full package adc that, unlike Lucian (i hate Luc and Jhin btw), needs a lot more intelligence in managing her spells in tf.
Now, lets talk about the 5th point. I think that her W is a little bit too much... If you do aprox 250 damage using an attack enhanced with W to all the secondary targets, that means you can deal 750 damage to a whole minion wave or bunch of champions using all the enhanced attacks. This is already a lot. Now imagine that damage doubled. This is just too much. This would mean that you can halve the enemy adc without even touching it.
In this case, i came with the idea of reworking her W. The target of this rework is making the Q her main spell in tf. So, here it is... W - Ricochet Sivir's next 3 basic attacks will bounce to nearby targets, dealing reduced damage to secondary targets. Every single bouncing attack will mark the affected enemies with 1 mark. Once a target has 3 marks on it, it will suffer Grievous Wounds for a certain time (Soraka haters will agree). The marks can be detonated by Q. That means that Q will deal bonus damage to targets affected by marks depending on the number of marks (max 3). SHE CANT CRITICALLY STRIKE WHILE W ANYMORE!
This change would make Sivir A LOT more based on her Q and skill-shot. Also, this would keep her LCS success. I think that the rest of her kit is perfect and it would go super well with this idea of w.
So, i hope you'll enjoy reading all this stuff XD. I wrote like an hour and a half so make sure to leave a like. Thank you :)
