It's rather idiotic to activate W before using E to jump in. If you miss your E then you now have 2 abilities on cooldown, one being you best (W is a strong burst PBAoE and a nice defence buff), and the other being your only useful intiation ability before 6. If you lose both those abilities you are almost giving your enemies free rain to jump you, or punish you. I always land E first, and activate W as I am travelling, then land Q on them. You may miss W if they flash away or whatever but at least you have the survivability buff from W so you are harder to kill. Also, activating W first just gives off a huge red flag to your enemy to play safe.
