Sometimes Riot reworks (or slightly changes) champions besides other than NEED rework (Sion, Heimer, Poppy(although if you win your lane you probably win the game since her ulti is COMPLETELY BROKEN)) because these are hard to work with. Since they already exist, you have to change them completely, while maintaining their core essense intact and make them atractive and at least fun to use. It would be expected to see Fiora's tweak before the Sion rework simply because her problem is only her passive (although her W also feels lackluster to me), not her whole kit and theme. So before complaining about something, think about it before.

PS: Heimer can still do a ton by just stopping mid lane, so champs like akali, Fizz, Diana or Kassadin can't become a threat. He may take a slot on your team, but he takes one of theirs as well. And he didn't stop being viable for 3 years. Early S2 he was picked a while.
