Patch V2.00 Part 1 rolls out, and yes, it's only the first part. Not that the kit revamp is incomplete, I still have work to do on Izo elsewhere, explicitly his lore/backstory which is his weak-link. Now, what has been fried and cooked this time?


 * Let's first give thanks to both PrimusMobileVzla for formatting, along with both him and KeithCornell with getting the abilities reworked and revised. A round of applause for their help.
 * Now onto the kit, Frozen Edge is now a per-enemy ability than being a rechargable one. This allows Izo to strike minion or champion without worrying about wasting Frozen Edge on one and not the other. Its missing health scaling has been removed, but now the slow is much strong (and scales with AP) although it now decays over 2 seconds than remaining constant over 3.5.
 * Oh yes, Frozen Edge now interacts with Izo's kit better.
 * Q has remained constant in its primary function of being a Yasuo-esque ability. But, there has been changes to how it heals Izo (per enemy hit than hit-or-miss) along with a different interaction with his other abilities. Instead of interacting with Hoarfrost from Field of Rime, it now extends the duration of Frozen Edge's slow by 1 second. Yes, 1 second, but there is significance in that... maybe?
 * The healing had the much needed change, as before, while being hit-or-miss (but why miss!?), it could be spammed on minion hordes to guarantee a heal. Now, Crushing Bolverk rewards Izo with more healing for hitting a champion or two in one cast than when using it on non-champions only.
 * Note to Primus: I noticed that you kept referring to "Bolverk" as "Borverk"... is there a reason why as to the confusion?
 * W has been through many changes, from being a dash with 's Defense Curl to being a MS boost with a shield that slows enemies. Now renamed into Frosted Coating due to "Frost Fang" overlapping with Frostfang, this W is a dash with a shield, causing enemies to be more suspectible to Frozen Edge the more they hit the shield. They are still slowed too (although the slow has been slightly nerfed).
