What do people think about maxing W first? I know, I know, it's Distortion. But, it really helps you farm and push that lane when needed (and more levels lowers the cooldown). It does have a pretty high mana cost though, but at the same time it deals AoE damage, so when you go to gank, you can Sigil -> Distortion -> Mimic Distortion -> Return to first distortion/ignore returning and go for chains (after the new patch you can return to the first distortion).

Just an idea. It's not the most safe way to build her skills, and it is less instant than the insta-gib combo, but it removes her inability to farm while still having strong damage. Just that, at early levels, it has a long cooldown + you are not leveling Sigil, so you kind of give up the ability to harass well in lane.
