The passive says thet she can't use basic attacks, but the ultimate says that basic attacks reduce the cooldown. I get that your saying it's an on-hit effect, and thus all of her abilties grant the cooldown reset, but I think you should reword it to make it more straightforward.

With no mana and cooldowns less than 2 seconds, she's in perma URF mode. Given that she can spam abilities so hard, the cooldown on her ultimate would also be negligible; at lvl 6 she can each second use 3 abilties that all reduce her ult's cooldown. Even if she fails to hit any champions, her ult can have an effective cooldown of 14 seconds at rank 1. with no mana or cooldowns to restrain her, i feel like she would be too oppresive for her lane opponent.

I wouldn't even bother building attack speed on her. I'm not sure if I could physically press all the hotkeys on my keyboard fast enough. I would say keep her Q with the 1/atk speed cooldown as her "pseudo basic attack", but make the other abilities have longer, non-attack speed related cooldowns to make it easier for both her opponents to be able to fight her, and to make her kit more intuitive and not just mashing keys.
