Riot August Tweeted the upcoming changes to Janna

We have a Janna update for 12.1 that should be showing up on the PBE soon (feedback is appreciated).

Summary: We're draining lane poke power out of her W + AA's and focusing it into utility. Q is now a much stronger spell when used offensively.

I think a lot of the feedback here is valuable.

I do want to point out that the Q travel time change (while slightly better for being aggressive), makes peel/disruption much better for the Janna player, where the Live version is pretty inconsistent.

There's definitely some parts of power that are being drawn from, but overall there's still a lot of skill expression added with August's changes beyond just spamming your E.
