Linear skillshots

has 1500 range on her Q has 1450 range on his Q has 1400 range on his Q & both have 1175 range on their Qs has 1150 range on his Q has 1100 range on her E & both have 1050 range on their Qs has a total of 1025 range on his E

So why the hell does have 850 range on his main damage ability? It doesn't even have CC! His Q needs at least 1100 range if you're going to leave it a skillshot, or else revert it back to a target-able ability with 625 range like the rest.

I went through the list of linear skill shots briefly on the wiki. There are actually quite a few skill shots in the 850-950 range of abilities, the issue is that those spells are usually compensated for their short range with some sort of CC where longer range is usually just flat damage.

Brand's Q for example has 900 range, but it's not his main damage ability, and it stuns targets that are ablaze. Lulu's Q has more range than Veigar's Q, passes through anything and slows, well that's her main damage ability. TF's Q also passes through everything and has 1400 range, but no cc in it.

Also, Zed(which is mobile) has 900 range on his Q(1450 range on mimicked Q [900 normal range + 550 range on shadows])
