Woops my bad. Just did calculations. Ahri does have a lower burst overall compared to pre 3.13 and post 3.13, but her burst is similar to pre 3.13, probably 60 damage lower on average for her W,E,R. What this means is that Ahri is now back to her pre 3.13 status, slightly nerfed but balanced and healthy.

The utility on Q makes up for it.

What this would probably mean is that Ahri still has her burst, she just need to poke a bit before going all-in. And this change doesn't harm Mage Ahri players. Skillcap is still there because Charm + .5 AP Ratio will be an integral part of her burst. She just won't have full on burst due to removal of 20%dmg amp. Pre 3.13, Ahri had a great burst, when 5.2 hits, she will have her initial burst back, only slightly lowered, which is I personally think the intended nerf Riot failed to nail correctly during 3.13 but have successfully done so in 5.2.

This also means that Ahri retains her hybrid nature of a soft burst mage or soft burst assassin as opposed to skewing to a hard burst mage or hard burst assassin. I'll re-do my calculations later on when I have time because I may have overlooked certain things. But in terms of getting the basics down, I think its correct. Praise Riot!!
