Can we make Malphite's Q a skillshot ?

The animation even makes it look like one.

(could ignore minions and stop when it hits the first champion)

But some of us noobs need point and click champs don't take them all away

Let's not make every point & click a linear skillshot, shall we? Like, that's a bit overused, redundant and kinda meh. Referring to Ryze Q, Rengar E, Veigar Q, and maybe some I have missed. And every point & click changed into a skillshot is a buff to mobility. And with current mobility creep, we don't want that. Really.

That would be a problem.

If it stopped after 1 target, malphite loses his poke in lane (if he builds AP)

If it passes through them, malphite becomes a great splitpusher with even MORE waveclear than he already had.

while the movement speed steal is pretty unique as far as champion abilities go, the thing is generally pretty underwhelming and the most boring ability in his kit.

what would be pretty interesting, if the thing was turned into a skillshot, but we could steer the direction its moving in, while the thing is on its way. similar to how we can steer sion when he ults.

in return it could be made actually impactful beyond the slow. maybe in addition to the slow, it could pass through enemy units and would damage all units in its path. and give it armor scaling so it actually has noticable lategame damage.
