Has Hi-Rez pulled a Ratatoskr with Jing Wei?

DISCUSSION

There were inherit problems with Ratatoskr's kit that made him extremely awkward to balance. He was designed with insane mobility, but on release, his damage was too high to justify the mobility. They tried to adjust his numbers, but the mobility wasn't worth it without enough damage to compete with other Assassins.

Now they're at a place where they have to have a second look at his kit and change things up to bring him into a place where they can adjust his numbers without making him completely broken or completely useless.

Now we're seeing the same thing with Jing Wei. Amazing mobility, but not enough damage to compete with other Hunters. She needs lower damage to make up for her mobility, but it's almost made her unviable.

Is there a way to buff Jing Wei without making her super OP, using her current kit, or have they made another Ratatoskr that needs a rework before they can be balanced?
