nidalee's takedown not priortizing hunted targets

now i know I'm going to get alot of hate for this from non nidalee players, but this thing really annoys me.

i land a spear.. i pounce in.. and i use takedown.. it takedown decides to hit a minion right next to them instead of them.

can we make it so takedown prioritized HUNTED targets if there are multiple targets in melee range. (unless you directly click attack on a target)

this doesn't happen THAT often (about 20% of the time when they are standing in a minion wave so only about once every 5 games or so) as they have to be very close to a minion for takedown to miss and go for the minion instead.

but today i got of a game today where i got really unlucky where THREE times i died to a enemies i should have killed because takedown decided to attack a minion when i pounced in on them.

YES, if i was amazing at league and could play 24 /7 or was like master or challenger i would have the mechanics to click the thier champ when i auto, but I'm NOT im silver 3 (although on nid is rank myself gold 5).. but i justed landed a a skillshot on them, clicked on them for the pounce in, and i use takedown when they're 1 hit away from dying, its REALLY annoying to see it attack a minion. while they escape with thier lives (or kill me because im now out of skills).

this isn't really a "balance" issue (more of a gameplay issue but i still think this is the right forum for this) and yes like i said if i was master of challenger i would have the mechanics to avoid this 100% of the time instead of 80% of the time. but it would be nice if they have was smart enough to realize that i just proced hunted on them.. and i pounced on on them. even if there are multiple targets on melee range of takedown can it PLEASE attack the one i have hunted proced on? becuase takeodown EXTENDS the basic attack range while while the target is moving backwards and is still in range of takedown the minion is now closer and it decides to attack the "closest" target to where i landed my pounce instead of the champ im actually trying to kill

Use your ` key

how exactly does that work? do i press it before i hit q? after i hit Q? right before i get in attack range? do i hold it down while pressing Q?

the problem im having is i cant click them in the creep wave with 100% accuracy, i know the tilde button helps you only attack attack champs and i know takedown empowers yout auto but i dont know HOW it works.. WHEN do i press ~? HOW do i press it properly? do i need to left click something after press `? how exactly do i use it?

you press it in conjunction with an ability. Like if I wanted to stun somebody withTaric that's in the middle of a minion wave I'd press ` +whatever ability I have my stun bound to so that I don't target minions by accident. Same with ryze's snare or any point-click targeted ability.

You basically hold it down and use your abilities like you normally would, except now they ignore targeting minions as long as ` is pressed.

ok how takedown works it it empowers your next attack attack, so it still an auto attack.. so would i then need to right click or left click near the target to use takedown on them?

Think of empowered takedown like Ekko's dash in that it will extend the range on your next basic, but you still need to click EXACTLY what you want to hit with it.
