Please consider making the diving stage of Thunderstrike invincible

Just had an incredibly frustrating run, ended by being hit during the diving stage of Thunderstrike.

I was low HP, and had my "Ultimate" ready, so I used it to get in the air and out of a bad situation. Looking at swarms of enemies below. Release! Let's go!! Had Thunderstrike landed, I would have cleared an entire hoard and gained HP (Life Pact) and cool down (Battlemage). It would be my dopamine rush.

But the game decided otherwise. It was either a slinger shot or bomber that hit / damaged me as I was diving the moment, mid air. Just enough to kill me. Round end.

This is incredibly frustrating. As a long time Thunderstrike user, I've always known that I'm not invincible while hovering in the air, which is fair. But I think the diving stage should be invincible. Player can't do anything while diving. The diving stage is very short too, so this spell won't be broken.

Also, I've had times where immediately after Thunderstrike lands, I got bit by the snake. This doesn't make sense since the impact would have killed the snake; the only explanation is that, the snake jumped on me before I land, and survived the impact (maybe because it's not considered in the environment?). So I suggest making the diving stage immune to snake bites too.
