Increasing akali viability.

Personally, i hate how riot changed akali, but this isn't a thread about asking for old akali back (which i really want) but it's about a change that could work perfectly in combination to the recent changes. As most akali players know, her ult doesn't change her target. For example, you can auto a minion, then ult a champion and akali will walk back to the minion to auto it once the ult has been completed. This i believe wasn't really an issue before but with the recent changes she is in due need of this. I ask that her ult be an auto reset so that she attacks the unit she jumps to. Just a suggestion. I am not a programmer so i am not aware of how difficult this is to accomplish but i ask that you at least thing about it.

I've been considering creating a feedback thread of my own, as one of the longest time Akali players in the game (started maining her early in S1), but that's a pretty good idea to consider. With the latest nerf Akali has gone from one of the easiest assassins to play to literally the hardest and most clunky, who really has no place in the game next to champs like Zed and LeBlanc. Riot basically did what they should never have done again: Putting a champ down to the "ignored and hopefully people won't play her anymore tier".

They succeeded in removing the "reliability" of her damage, but they did it in such a way that she is incredibly NOT FUN to play now. Having to auto attack to proc stuff as a melee champ with no ASPD bonuses is literally one of the worst mechanics in modern League.
