Bring back old Quinn ult with lethality and new runes

It's clear to everyone that the marksman update was not able to put Quinn into a marksman role just by minor changes to the kit and a ult rework. Her kit clearly doesn't fit what a marksman should be able to do so the decision to change her ult was a mistake from the beginning. With the new runes and lethality Quinn could make a comeback as an assassin if she was given her old ult with some minor changes. I would personally encourage adding some more reward to going full melee as a squishy ad susceptible to crowd control by giving her a reset on her e when she gets a kill with her ultimate active. This change could even add some outplay potential when you get a kill in a team fight press r and use the human form e to escape. I think that not only would this allow Quinn to make better use of the new runes but help her find a spot along other meta assassins instead of forcing her into an adc role while her e does the opposite of what an adc would want. I would love to see Quinn as a high risk roaming mid laner with more rewards to getting kills and a new aspect of excitement added to her kit with the ultimate changes. Her kit works well with lethality and Quinn should be able to own this with her old ultimate and duskblade melee procs. As a Quinn player I understand the ult changes but I would love to see her regain a small player base from just becoming a more fun and interactive champ to play.

If anyone disagrees with me or has some suggestions on how to help Quinn feel free to discuss, and sorry for bad spelling/grammar.

Old Quinn was one of my favorite champs to play </3 Then the new ult came around and I was just like "well it was nice while it lasted"

at least with old quin you actually used the bloody bird, now all it is is a glorified speed boost, so boring

I was saying this last season when ADCs were building item 3142 item 3071, and I was saying it after the ADC itemization rework that let adcs get 30% CDR with item 3508 item 3087 and cap it with CDR Glyphs/Essence Reaver/Ionians, and when Lethality was introduced and...

You get the picture.

Old Quinn was actually a great concept, it just couldn't thrive in the era of LoL that it existed.

Champions like Jayce/quinn shouldnt be allowed to exist

The most polarizing anti melee champions EVER

top isnt having the best of times in this tank top meta so i dont think helping quinn also abuse melees in this meta will make it any healthier.

atleast wait for the nerfs on tanks to go through first.

Quinn is fine atm, you just build her differently. The ult gives insane map control and the ability farm in a lane and join on the objectives on time.

Harrier, ability, harrier is still a combo with insane damage.

I mean, I feel like the reset thing would make her even more Master Yi-ish than the old ult already was.
