Due to her Passive, Layla can only deal a lot of damage to enemies from a distance, but her lack of mobility makes it difficult for her to get away from enemies. So we'll lower the damage bonus and increase her attack instead.

As a Marksman without Blink, Layla has trouble with survivability. We hope the following changes will allow her to kite enemies more efficiently and increase her skill cap. We've reduced a bit of her damage to balance these buffs.
