1 : the big idea is that once you cast your ult, you're basically a racecar for the next 3 seconds unless you get hard cc'd, and changing it would, well... not fit the theme properly.

2 : I thought about it... And then nah.

3 :  she's literally full of crit, and number-wise she doesn't lack damage at all by comparison. E is her only form of CC, and changing for a damaging spell would force me to reduce her otherwise damage a lot-which I don't want to. The point being to make her even harder to fight if she manages to get to melee, while synergizing with ult in that way.

4 : Nah, the innate doesn't boost crit chance.
