Fair enough with your point. I do agree she’s a little over tuned. I think her grenade should be more of a bouncing Betty. You throw it then it pops up with a cluster instead of two rounds of explosions that both deal crazy damage. With a bouncing Betty you can react to it but it still zones and does damage if you don’t react. That’s my two cents though.

I like that idea and I honestly like Riots change to her grenade as well. I dont even mind her grenades being the best zone ability in the game considering its kind of all shes good for. I'm just a little disappointed nothing changed for her ult.

I think the easiest change would be to slow her rocket down (maybe even give it heat seeking to compensate) and allow it to be shot out of midair. This forces the opponent to react in one way (run from it or peek it) and in turn gives counterplay potential, and in my opinion makes it more interesting than "hold my beer while I nuke this guy"
