Idea for Ashe's E passive

I think most people consider Ashe E pretty useless and max it last so I thought how to improve it and what would match Ashe in terms of her playstyle. More dmg? No... Give extra gold again? No. Then I thought what her E active does and I come up with this: Ashe would have increased range of vision for every rank of E. It would fit with her archer abilities and eagle eye and make her laning phase a little easier (agains ganks) since she has no dash or mobility. Of course she still wouldn't see champs in bush (maybe with max E but it's too op) and a little more time to react to jungler is always nice. It wouldn't make her OP all of a sudden but it could be a nice touch. What do you guys think?

Interesting, she is a ranger, so giving her a passive "scouting" ability would be interesting. I think the problem with this idea is that it wouldn't be enough to suddenly convince players to even consider changing their leveling order, so it will still be last.

I've given a lot of consideration to this ability myself, and my idea is to give her a short mobility burst on activation. My stipulations for this would be for the base stats to be super low, not to give a huge buff to the existing Ashe. Then to give it a strong scale on AP. This would make AP Ashe more relevant since she does not deal enough damage from building AP from her Q or W. Instead it gives her better safety and helps with her ability to position for her ultimate.

AD Ashe = machine gun AP Ashe = mobile sniper

Teemo's original passive was that he could "scout ahead" because his passive gave him longer sight range... Riot then deemed it being to overpowered.
