Twisted Treeline Shyvana mechanics

Okay, so it has been a while since the Shyvana update now. It's great and I enjoy it very much, but there is something about the update that messed up my usual pattern of play with her in the Twisted Treeline. Namely the ganking routes that she could use. One thing that she could do was jump the large center wall using her ultimate ability. It was good for catching those who overextended in the top lane. Granted only a few characters can do this such as Zac or those who would teleport like Shen , Pantheon , etc. With the shortened range of her ultimate now, she is still able to clear the wall but with not without taking a huge risk. I don't exactly feel great when I attempt to jump the wall only to crash face first into it half the time I attempt it. The attempt is like when Riven could do the wall hop early on, face the right way, get really close to the wall and hop. But here, I'm playing with a high impact, long cooldown ability.

In other words, is it possible to change the wall jump in the TT center wall for Shyvana more consistent? Or, is it going to stay the way it is?

Balancing isn't made considering non competitive game modes such as twisted treeline, rotating game modes, and aram.

If jumping the exact same section of wall occasionally works, yet occasionally fails, that might be a bug. However, it seems more likely that the ult range is just barely long enough, resulting in the required placement and direction being extremely specific. Kinda like using Ekko E to jump the wall behind the Wolf camp. In which case, the fact that you can jump the wall might be a bug, or at least unintended.
