1) Honestly, Izo's kit didn't change much at its core nature nor did his match-ups change all that much (except being a slightly tougher challenge due to his W changes when  was released. Emphasis on the slightly). Perhaps the only warranted change is to remove as a recommended item and add on-hit items that gel with his new emphasis on basic attacks, like  or even  for extra healing.

2) ARAM suffers from Riot not acknowledging that mechanics that work well in SR can become broken by ARAM: the fact that the Howling Abyss lacks a jungle (and, by proxy, roaming space), the lack of walls and small width of the lane making some abilities overwhelming or nearly useless  and the mediocre balance of some items and summoner spells make  and  too good and  and  awful for continuous enjoyment.

3) It was precisely due to the lack of female Ascended that I started with a Sekhmet-inspired champion; she became a fusing Sekhmet's role as a protector of pharaohs and Bastet's role as a ointment keeper and protector from diseases and evil spirits, so her theme became fighting with perfumes in the front line to help her squishy allies. While I have a  passive, a Q and R that fit the theme and are unique, the rest of her kit are rubbing too much on both  and  kits due to scent/catfighting allegories.

4) Add not-so-good-imo kit design on top of . It's like the balance team was too afraid of his design theme being fleshed out to its fullest and instead of having a proper smith character, boosting his team with new tools and shopping privileges in detriment of not being that powerful himself a la, he came out as a CC bot with too much fat under his belt and meh upgrades.

5) I don't know if I'll have the time for Discord, but I'll try to communicate with custom champion creators as much as I can. Thanks for the suggestion.
