The biggest difference design wise are
-variable turn rates making kiting harder, which opens up the design space for melee adcs without a dash
-denying giving reduced xp, which makes lanes with large skill gaps absolute blowouts
-most abilities are smartshot, which de-emphasizes mechanical skill in favor of macro knowledge on when to push your buttons
