Change Alistar's E to a speed boost

As an avid Alistar player, I have not been a fan of the recent changes to him. I think Riot took the skill out of playing him (making his "combo" an essentially guaranteed result); and with these changes to his heal, it'll make Coin-start Alistar (something I liked building for late game engage) non-viable. Furthermore, it's a pretty weak heal now. Following Riot's logic in their patch notes, I think they should just change Alistar's heal to a speed boost, similar to Blitz W. It'd make more sense regarding the direction they seem to want to take him. I'd also be a fan of Riot reverting the combo change, as it's much less rewarding pulling off a "combo". #makeAlistargreatagain

With the change to Alistar's combo, it made some weird bugs happen as well. ex: Headbutt->Knockup combo would rarely glitch out and have the knock up in the middle of his path during his headbutt, causing minions or nothing to be knocked up and your target to be shoved away. Or The knockup would be at the start then headbutting, even though your target was in range of the headbutt and you DID press headbutt before knockup. I miss the way he was also, and wish for a revert to make his combo much harder to land. It had less bugs and actually took practice.

I had a thought of just making it a self heal or shield.... I never felt like an aoe heal was even correct for his kit.... Idk but they just keep hitting it over and over with nerfs.. just change it already!
