Petition for adjusting Orianna's ranges for more accurate combos

If my numbers are correct (via leagueoflegends.wikia) Orianna Orianna's ult has a range of 650, and pulls champions 350 towards the ball. Her W has a range of 250. Which means there is a dead zone in the outside 50 range of the ult where enemies will not be pulled into range of her W, and a dead zone in the inner 100 of the ult where enemies will actually be pushed out of the range of her W.

Considering her W makes up almost half of Ori's ult combo, this means players are not able to fully utilize her R+W combo in hectic teamfights, and perhaps worse, punished for placing the ball directly on top of their target. I myself have killed many a Caitlyn by ulting them into the range of a tower so instead of decreasing her pull range I propose to increase the range of her W to 350.

Orianna is a combo based champion and it's inconsistent and plain unfair to randomly miss half of her damage even after doing everything right. However, if buffing her W range proves unbalanced, and since nerfing her ult range is obviously out of the question, I encourage discussion on other solutions that would fix this problem.
