Malikens ulti works horrible on end game

[NacrusDark]

Most annoying issue in game ever.

Setup:
Very nice and long game.
Most players loaded with items.
Few "small HP" and "loads of DPS" heroes around.
Well built strong high lvl Maliken.

Scenario:
Maliken as a proper initiator thows himself in with a sword.
As soon as he ports he ulties for crowd controll.
Enemy heroes panick and run around BUT....
they have a lot of items and a lot of movement speed.
They start moving in random directions under influence of fear inch here inch there with super speed.
A good maliken would like to target those heroes to take them down since they have small HP and can do a lot of dmg BUT....

HE CANT BLOODY HIT THEM!
They move so fast and so random I make 200 clicks all around them before I actually target anything and the whole initiation seconds are lost.

So following the genius poll rules here it is:

Press A the left click somewhere near some enemies.

What the above said.

And atack Jereziah over Flint?
I dont think so.

[Talak_Hallen]

Then attack no one. That's clearly better than attacking Jereziah over Flint.

Maliken does SPLASH damage in his ultimate for a reason.

Umm.
You all seem to be missing my point here.
For me the game playability means that I can issue orders that I want to my characters and I can do in game what I want with my abilities.
Now If I have a choice of dealing maximum damage to Flint I would like to do so.
My issue is that combination of high movement speed with fear random movement effect is making it very hard to operate the hero in the desired way.

I also do not believe that its intended meaning s2 games thought:
-Lets make Malikens ultimate trigger some sort of small crowd controll on the area.
-Yea thats too strong lets make them run in different directions at least so he cant focus anyone.

and not:
-Well this is a good idea! He transforms and everybody is terrified so they run like crazy!


So anwsers about choosing another hero to target are not welcome. Any good theorycrafters around? Anybody with some input in to the topic?

I've had this happen before a lot too. Just que up the attack order, since the whole sword throw takes a little bit.

I'm not too sure on this, but if you click a target to attack before you morph, you still continue to attack that target after morph.

Stop playing with a touchpad. Get a mouse.
