Can we have this for pounce?

"Rocket Grab" Blitzcrank will attempt to attack enemy champions that are successfully pulled towards him.

can we have "nidalee will attempt to attack a hunted target that has be successfully pounced to" really annoying when i pounce to a hunted target (which is itself a targeted ability if i choose to use the long rang empowered pounce by targeting the hunted enemy)

i mean i JUST targeted then with my pounce.. why the hell did the stupid game make me use takedown on the minion/tower next to them.

Attack move button bro. Or target it before you jump and it'll complete after you jump. Attack move button is A by default. It makes you basic attack the closest target to the cursor within your range, and if no enemies are in your range, moves you to within range of the enemy it targets. It's how good ADC players kite. I've been practicing using it myself to get better at the game mechanically.

while that does work in most cases. it also will make you try to autopath toward them. which can be an issue if you are pouncing on them form over a wall.

also.. empowered pounce IS a targeted ability.

a normal pounce just pounced in whatever direction your cursor is facing, an empowered pounce required you to click directly on the hunted target. and they NEED to be targetable. aka if they are stealthed or in item 3157 or on Fizz troll poll. even if they are hunted you cant use your "empowered" pounce (if you try to pounce on them like this it will just do a normal pounce because you didn't click them because you couldn't)

Yes, I know that it is a targeted ability. I used to play a good amount of Nidalee, back when she was a mid laner rather than a jungler. Still don't know why she's played in the jungle now. Tried playing her there a few times, I don't think that I pull it off right, so when I play it it just seems bad, and I don't see many people playing it in my ELO, so I don't get examples of what a Nidalee jungle is supposed to do or why she's played in the jungle in the first place. Many high ELO jungle mains claim that she has among the fastest clear speed of any champion, but as she has 0 AoE in her Human form and 2 AoE abilities in Cougar form, which are both very low damage, I just don't see it. When I tried to jungle Nidalee, I would usually die during the first clear at some point, and come out of it too low to gank anywhere and forced to back. Anyways, yes, empowered Pounce is targeted. What's your point? You can target the enemy before you jump (I think) and you'll attack them right after you Pounce. Besides, if Auto Attack is enabled, you should just instantly attack as soon as you finish jump. At least, that's how it always worked for me when I played Nidalee mid. If the enemy you pounced to is the nearest target, you should get the AA into Q that you get.
