I'd reccomend giving shift a base damage. As an adc, Maryke will not be building much AP, unless she wants to get a triforce. Until she gets at least a sheen, the ability itself is useless. Buying AP only benefits that one ability, and it isn't by much. If it scaled with AD or was given a base damage, people would probably level it up rather than leave it.
