Goals:
-Remove his power-pie of Misha being able to contest objectives by buffing his kit elsewhere. Misha now is categorized as a summon similiar to Abathur's Monstrosity
-Improve late game
-Increase sustainability, which indirectly increases damage
Improve Rexxar and Misha Synergy
-Lower Niche a bit, improve general viability
Why?
Rexxar is niche. Rexxar is a niche on top of a niche. Hes a harder to play hero with a massive downside that misha is a easy quest progress slot machine. There are benefits to Misha being flaged as a hero, which includes solo laning because she can contest objectives and sipping the fountain/collecting globes for rexxar or even sometimes block skillshots, but this does 2 things. Takes up a HUGE amount of his power design where its only relevant really pre 10, and leaves rexxar in a weaker spot because theoretically misha is supposed to protect rexxar.
This is the ideal which does not work out in regular games. Rexxar is a warrior, and he needs to be able to protect his team or at least soak up damage meaningfully. Rexxar and Misha themselves are relatively squishy compared to every other warrior individually. and together they dont pose enough of a threat in team fights

Rexxar Health increased from 1,795 to 1895
