Katarina seems rather interesting right now. Her damage overall exceeds that of her old kit exponentially, however the overall difficulty in execution is higher. Her rework increased her base skill level and her skill cap went up far more. However the jist of it is the same. It's her animation cancelling. If you manage to cancel her W into her E while using her Q you can unleash your full  burst upon landing. At full build with maybe 750-800 Ap That is easily about 2k in overall damage. Trickier in teamfights but same base concept.

Just micromanage your Shunpo as it is the key to her entire kit at this point. She is terrifying to face if she gets ahead because it is very hard to stop her even more so than before as her damage is higher along with her mobility but it is easier to punish errors. Before all she did was cancel Q>E>W but you could sometimes move too fast and go E>W before Q landed on her target requiring her to auto it. Now I've noticed it's W>Q>E>E if need be.

I loved old Kat but the new one is really growing on me so far.
