I think a nerf would be difficult, not to say she isn't one of the more powerful champions out there. (which means OP, but not absurdly so.)

Her strength is her ability to completely zone out her opposition, similar to Gragas and Lux. She hits early, often, and hard. The problem is if you can't take that away from her because it is her gimic. If you made it weaker so that she couldn't zone she could be completely ignored altogether. So any nerf is going to turn her inside out.

I play against her like I play against Vlad. Her cool downs are fairly long early, so once the ball moves poke her a few times or farm.
