I have to disagree that there is less decision making surrounding her passive. Her old passive was flatout boring, you just had it ALL THE TIME so you did not have to make any decision about it ever. The new one requires some decision making in that sense that the 2 attacks each do something different, the first one heals, the second one deals more damage. So when up against a target with lower health, I want to burst them down, I first hit a minion (the heal is gone), dash Q + passive is a big burst combo. Or for example against pantheon, i first want to proc his shield so I engage 1-2 second before the passive is up (he full combo's my face probably) I heal, and burst.

Which build path you take is something that you always have to consider so her old passive did not gave anything new to the game. If you want more sustain, u build more sustain as akali just as you did before, you want more damage, you build more damage just as you did before and as you do anyways depending on who you are up against and how well you are playing.
