Quinn- Ult Update

I'm wondering what the community's thoughts are on Quinn's new ult animations. With the upcoming marksman patch Quinn seems to be pulling a Banjo and Kazooie routine and riding Valor around the map. The concept of a roaming marksman is fine, I'm trying to remain optimistic, but the animation looks corny to me. I would be interested to hear why Riot thought this to be an improvement of Quinn's original ult animation when all the same effects are still viable using her existing Quinn/Valor switch (i.e. the roam, the force switch at receiving damage, the elective switch when activating an ability or attacking, the arrow rain) . I love my tag team lady bird and want to be proud of her on the battlefield, but admittedly my first look at her new animation is a little embarrassing. Am i way off base?
