The rework did not make her skill cap drop, it just lowered the skill floor and made the learning curve easier to follow. It is now obvious to one that you harass with QEW and back off. The changes also made it easier to push and chase, two things an assassin can use very effectively. Granted, this was possible before, but it was not obvious and Q was unreliable, so you had to put a point into W and use Killer Instincts to push or get lucky and hit your enemy.

I favor Katarina simply because of her blistering speed and low range but small cooldown kit. Ever since I fought a good Kat, I learner and experimented until I got sick of playing her, then the rework hit and number adjustments were made.
