Why doesn't Lee Sin's ult have a second cast?

I mean, he gets one for all of his other abilities. I'm just wondering why he doesn't get one on his ult as well.

What would it do? You really wanna pack MORE stuff into his kit?

Not if you reduced the initial damage or effect of the ult. You could in theory have something like where it does damage on first attack and marks the opponent, and the second cast within 4 seconds has the knock back effect.

I don't mind how it's currently set up, but if you were looking at options to change it, it wouldn't be that hard. You don't have to just add to, you can reduce from the initial to balance it.

Recast to knock the target champion into the enemy Nexus, destroying it instantly.

Wouldn't that be redundant?

A second activation for what?? Maybe give his second ult cast a flash to his ult location... He rly needs more mobility.

That's already his Q tho.

I implore you to look into sarcasm.

I implore you to look into playing along with the joke. As in, you suggested something which he really doesn't need since he already has tons of mobility, I mentioned that he already has that thing he really doesn't need.

I don't think OP is asking for Lee's ult to be added to, but rather, rebalanced to add a second cast effect.

It doesn't mean it needs to do the same damage and knock back and then something extra. You could easily re-tune it to do % damage initially and % damage +knock back on second cast.

This would actually lower his power I think as he would actually have his damage and effect spread out over time allowing for a little more counter play.

Implying that Lee's damages, mobility and playmaking potential isnt already crazy

He doesnt need more ulility on his kit

This isn't about "adding more". It's about consistency. All of Lee Sin's other abilities have a second cast so it just seems odd to be that his ult doesn't have one.
