Yeah, the writing's not great on this one, as it kinda fell above its own weight due to me having no foresight (though I do partially blame this me having rushed the piece without planning; not that rushing is a good thing). No argument about that.

It's a shame you don't like the kit as a whole though. I was hoping a kit veered towards being a global menace/hyper aggressive psycho kid would be interesting, but perhaps it's me who failed on delivering to the best it could've possibly been done. I'll have some further looks into redistributing the innate's functions over the kit, as to streamline their values as abilities in a kit, in addition to making them all feel valuable (I might've overdone it on the whole kit being innate dependent). Thanks for your criticism!
 * The AD scaling isn't the prettiest I agree, but it's there as to allow Friede to be able to provide utility for her team whilst building offensive, as well as detracting her from support builds (I'd argue marksmen built as supports are far uglier than quirky scalings). It's there for a well founded reason, in my opinion.
 * I thought it would be a given that - like dashes - if she were to drop in the midsection of a terrain, that she would fall to closest edge of the terrain (like Aurelion Sol with his E; any ways, I guess I'll add it to the clarifications). And although I would've understood where you were going by saying I ripped off Aurely Soly, I'm genuinely not sure what you mean by I went with something from Alanor for this one. Perhaps you got the wrong hint from the unobstructed vision?
 * W's passive doesn't make her only good at executing, it also makes her better at chasing/providing utility (working in tandem with the active). As the bonus scales differently per enemy, lower health enemies grant allies more movement speed than healthier ones. As for the active, it is kinda supposed to be a wannabe-ultimate (honestly love the term: wannabe-ultimate). I'm not sure if that's supposed to be a bad thing though.
 * I don't like the letter E, therefore they get bound to the crappiest abilities I can possibly conceive (only half-joking).
 * Yeah, the visuals/thematic value would be a bit too similar, to the point it would be justified being concerned about. Their purposes however, are very different, as you may have been able to tell (Friede's all about relentlessly killing enemies on Death Row, and the lower health they are, the better Friede is at killing them). The damage I might've overdone a bit though, so thanks for pointing that out. I personally like to overtune things rather than undertune them (at the initial stages), so it's good to have someone point out when the numbers start getting absurd.
 * As for making the kit more unique, I'm sure it would be fine if I settled my hate for the letter E (still only half-joking).
