This gif sums up a lot of my issues with Rek'Sai's new Ultimate.

It's incredibly unreliable. The ultimate does no damage to someone who makes no attempts to dodge. As far as I can tell, it's supposed to be fizz Q style, where you can dodge it if you flash or something off to the side. But I've had multiple occasions where simple walking with no dashes or speed boosts has been enough to not be damaged by the ult.
It's hard to follow up on. As you can also see in that gif, I land very far away from Gnar. If I landed closer to him, like in Warwick Q, I could have conceivably still killed him, rather than just having to walk away having been put into a really bad situation.

All in all, the ult feels very clunky in multiple ways. Please give it some QoL to make it feel like a real ultimate, or at least some feedback on why it works like this.

I don't see the problem, clearly you simply jumped too high over him

this is what should have happen: http://vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/tremors/images/4/45/African_Graboid_%2849%29.gif/revision/latest?cb=20160310210429 this is what happened: https://media.giphy.com/media/3KeDVHzcqk0WQ/giphy.gif

Riot, you clearly need to work on that code again, you clearly need to on on that.

beside, what that gnar was building? if he had only a black cleaver, and you didn't killed him, how you are suppose to kill a Lucian with black cleaver and tabi ninjas? everyone should know, in you can't 100 to 0 a Mini-Gnar without defensive items, you hopes of doing the same to a ADC is zero. and for a diver, that is embarrassing. not being able to dive a Mini Gnar and get the kill.

or it's just Gnar having problems with his code?

P.S.: my bad English is bad.

That kinda seems similar to the WW ult issues.

They may do some tracking improvements to it? It does look like it would be a bit clunky to use.

i was in a 1v1 custom and my q wasn't triggering her damage to the enemy, so i couldn't ult to them.

The unreliability of this new ult makes her feel really bad. So much damage was taken from her bases and not to mention the attack speed from her R and it was replaced with an execute that hits less than 50% of the casts. I like the idea and attempt to give her a predator identity, if Riot could make the ultimate hit more and possibly make it so you don't end up so far from your target afterwards it would be a lot better. More base attack speed would be nice too, make her a little smoother in combat

Does anyone know if this has been fixed? That doesn't seem like an intentional feature.
