Don't hold your breath. I was able to get Xypherous's attention and we may see her attack range increase to 125 from 100 in cougar and potentially see some tweaked mechanics with pounce and maybe swipe.

Xypherous is a technical designer not a champion designer so while he might be able to improve already existing mechanics he can't really do anything that directly effects the champions balance.

He also informed me that the darn long standing takedown bug is fixed. Although never tried it with crit damage but I'm 99% sure after doing my own testing that crit will no break takedown anymore
