Lux's E can now be casted mid-air, why can't orianna's w?

I've never had a problem smoothly using w right after moving the ball, unlike lux e which was liable to hang around for a whole second sometimes before detonating even if you spam it.

i can say the same for lux's former e, i had no trouble popping it after reaching the destination, i'm saying that if lux's e can be given a pre-detonation then why can't orianna's w with its lower radius be given the same

Also, lux's e can only be detonated. It's not like orianna where you might want to q it or e it somewhere after it lands or use ultimate. Why have the w be queable but not any of the rest of her kit? Ofc making all her skills queable would be a massive buff, but it seems like that would be the way to go if you were going to make changes like that.

It's pretty easy to hit W when the ball reaches it's destination.

Yeah I've really never had a problem with Ori's W.

Lux's E was just frustrating to land

i never understood why lux needed that buff? it is a giant circle aoe, compared to orianna it is huge, why does she need to proc it mid air? plus half the time she hits her q first which makes it a breeze to land then.

The change was made so that it felt better to use, and so you weren't mashing your keyboard to make the ability detonate, especially for people who were playing with higher latency.
