Any love for Renekton?

Been playing tons of Renekton lately and have been noticing some bugs with him that didn't seem to be there a few months ago. Mostly involving E, Flash, Q/W combo. It used to be smooth but now after flashing his Q or W will not activate and I will just be stuck standing there. Also after using E sometimes I won't even flash even thought the animation from E is clearly done. I'm 90% sure it isn't my timing changing on the combo but some kind of clunkiness that flash has caused. I've seen similar reports on other champs and their interaction with quick flash plays. Is this a feature now or a bug?

Also something that would be a cool update to an old champ would be to make his E have different ranges for how far he used it from. For instance if you hit a max range first E on a champ or minion it would be cool if you went an extra 50-80% distance instead of the flat amount it has always been, in return being close to a champ or minion you E through would actually shorten the distance traveled. This could add counterplay to both sides to interact with his diving abilities and stickiness. So now if you want to dive that back line it would be better to be further away from the first line to maximize the distance travelled, and in 1v1 situations you would want to be on top of them first so that the first E doesn't send you so far away that the enemy has time to react.

I believe Rene is in a somewhat healthy state but doesn't see Pro or high tier play because his play is very flat and predictable at that stage. Some bug/clunky fixes could go a long way with our Favorite Croc.
