On one hand, they are nerfing her ability to duel, on the other hand, they are buffing her ability to not care about that fact. By enabling her to escape more easily and giving her more free reign with mana cost changes (and buff to AoE) that aforementioned minion clearing (while hurting enemy at the same time) will factor into her ability to farm, and if that means nothing to you... well, I don't know what Marksman you WOULD play if you don't care about farm. Yeah, you could argue that the nerf to dueling means she'll get forced out of lane more often, but that's hard to say given her no-cost spellshield and better AoE on Ricochet.

There will always be strong opinions for or against, but I'm grateful for any change, seeing as she wasn't used beforehand, and this new iteration of Sivir will at least give more insight and feedback on how to make her even more useful in the competetive and casual scenes.
