In some ways it's a nerf and in some other ways it's a buff, I just wanted to make a silly hammer joke. It's wrong to call it a buff or a nerf, it's why it's called a rework. But increasing your movement speed won't help your allies catching up to fleeing opponent, true? (or prevent your enemy to reposition himself/herself in a teamfight either). Also, check the comment I left to Shaw Fujikawa who commented about my "nerf" statement if you want more of my reasons.
