Ashe is unbalanced in a surreal way
Ashe is by far the strongest glacial and the strongest ranger, despite being a 3 gold unit.
I'm afraid Kai'sa is going to be a total monster; otherwise she is not gonna be worth 5 gold for a ranged composition.

I've never felt like Ashe was "overpowered" but I have definitely felt like the duration of her stuns/her ability to chain freeze leads to a lot of negative play experiences. Given that currently the game has no counter-play options to crowd control she leads to a LOT of "WTF?!?!" moments where your 3 star monster unit dies 1 v 1 to a 2-star ashe with a rageblade simply because the stun never breaks.
All that said, in the upcoming item update there is going to be a new item, I believe, that reduces crowd control durations so maybe that will bring her into a more reasonable spot.
3 stars Ashe is a monster if she has a strong tank in her team. If you succeed to put 2 Thornmails and Dragon's Claw on 2 stars Braum, nobody touch you. Also this Braum can destroy entire opponent team alone.
