140%* 100% + 4 x 10% = 140%

Again, the slow isn't that big, NOR does it have a long duration. Even if we do change it, currently, BLAH! Let's just compare it to other AoE slows.


 * First, a bar setter: 50% for 1.75 seconds
 * Teemo: 50% for 4 seconds
 * Sion: 50% for 0.25 seconds
 * Nunu: 50% + 25% AS slow for up to 3 seconds
 * Lux: 36% for up to 5 seconds
 * Karma: 50% for 1.5 seconds
 * Diana: 35/40/45/50/55% for 2 seconds
 * Ekko: 40% for unlisted seconds
 * Evelyn: 30/50/70% for 2 seconds
 * Cho'Gath: 60% for 1.5 seconds
 * Nautilus: decaying 30/35/40/45/50% for 1.5 seconds
 * Sejuani: 50/55/60/65/70% for 1.7 seconds and 30% for 1.25/1.5/1.75 seconds
 * Rumble: 35% for up to 5 seconds
 * Tryndamere: 30/37.5/45/52.5/60% for 4 seconds
 * Trundle: 30/35/40/45/50% for up to 6 seconds

I may have missed some, but his current W is NOT that powerful compared to other AoE slows.

Again, the E is not that powerful in terms of damage, slow power or duration, CD, or range. Most dashes have a longer range, whether targeted or not, more damage, and some are even AoE. It even has less range than Poppy's E, which has a situational stun.

He does stay melee. Go read Rengar's passive. In functionality, it would be that. In visuals, obviously not.
