I wouldn't even say it's easier. It's now a skill-shot that hits minions; rather than something he can throw over minions. Xerath is my Ahri counters - E+R and she dies. Now she can dodge E, just like she dodges most skill-shot based mages.

And who said anything about his old? I mean Overwhelming Power and Arcane Barrage feel identical. It almost makes me want them to just go "Ascends into his true form, instantly refreshing the cooldowns of his basic abilities and gaining 100% cooldown reduction. This lasts for 6 seconds or until he has cast 3 abilities." - so he can just go WWW if he wants, which is basically what his ultimate is now, but he can also go QQQ or EEE or EWW or whatever.
