Twitch ultimate treated as "projectile"

Twitch's ultimate seems to be treated as a **projectile **because I've seen some enemies **dodge **the autoattacks by **moving **quickly. His ultimate should be working as an auto attack (Range & AD) enhancer. Auto attacks should _not _ be dodgeable unless blocked from another ability (braum, yasuo). I've been maining twitch for almost two years and this happens constantly. Have not mention it until in one of my recent games, the enemy took no damage at all in late game just by **moving **around. For stationary enemies, this works fine but that is the problem. The enhanced auto attacks should register to enemy champion after it is in the air, while the 'piercing' effect on his ultimate should be on top of that. Comment below if anyone else has seen this or not. Link to see this in-game: https://youtu.be/PyZD4XrUS00

The issue with that is if you make it just a range enhancer, you have to remove the pass-through effect.

That's not how projectile is classified. A projectile is not defined on the basis of whether or not it's dodgeable, it's just a form of attack definition, and is independent to targeting method.

For instance, Ryze's E is a lock-on projectile, so you will not be able to dodge it through conventional means once it's fired, but ofc being classified as a projectile means it will be blocked by for instance, Yasuo's W.

You should use terms like "Twitch ultimate treated as "directional targeting skillshot"" or something along that line. Just saying.

I think riot should just change how the ult is described. No where in its description does it say that it can miss. As it is explained in the ult, it simply enhances your auto attack. It's a bit confusing how I can watch an auto curve after an enemy that is moving but when I ult the "autos" i shoot miss constantly. I could care less about the pass through damage, I only care about my autos (which are supposed to hit 100% unless blocked by something) hitting the target. Honestly twitch seems to be one of the only champs that has a draw back to their ultimate. Ultimates are supposed to be overpowered, that's why they are called ultimates and why they have such long cooldowns.

also I dont get the people who say that his ult makes his autos a skill shot. We can't aim our auto attacks so its more just cross your fingers and hope the enemy doesnt move.
