Not really...i view the whole of a champ...and yes balance always takes a precedent over design...design doesn't matter at all when the champion balance is off...as with Gnar, Azir and Rek...and my point is...your E atm is ovepowered, but at the same time you sacrificed too much of Graves remaining power budget for it...your trade off is simply a bit too much on a single thing...kind of like Kog'maw...he sacrifices every bit of peel, mobility, and health he could have to be one of the best long range DPS marksman in theory, but in practice he's simply too fragile to be useful unless he has a very powerful protective comp around him...to shift soo much power into a single, extremely dangereous aspect of your champion's kit isn't worth it, not when the tradeoffs are soo big...the idea of your rework is nice and pushes Graves to what should have been his intended niche from the start, my point is, don't over push the niche, take a step back and allow Graves to atleast somewhat function as a regular marksman.
