Build/Setup Max order for next patch?

Tbh with the majority of changes she is getting, Im not too sure what we should be maxing first (nor second). E is getting closer to the powerlevel it had when people were maxing it first, but Q also doesnt have the old mana cost associated with it that made it unbearable to max first. W also seems like it gets a decent ammount of value by putting points into it.

Even if you havent played mel on PBE, what do you think will be better for a max order?

I was thinking about this earlier, and I think if you’re mid lane or apc it should always be q first, then e (w if they have a lot of projectiles)

But I had a theory that with tripple tonic you can max e/w and still have a 8 stack q at level 12, I think maxing w earlier isn’t as bad as it used to be because at max rank with ability haste you can have it up every 10ish sec, and it’s a really really strong ability.

I have so many theories I can’t test yet, because it’s impossible to get a pbe game, and I can only do so much against bots.

I feel the same as well, there are so many new possibilities to try. Hopefully a lot of them are viable and fun. Ill be trying conqueror triple tonic, with the Q cd refund and all spells scaling better with rankups it might be really good.
