Way too strong of a buff. Lich bane rush would be core. It would make her wave clear ludicrous and her safe lane poke would be worse than before.

Imagine her at level 11ish with a revolver and lich bane. She'd be hitting for probably around 80 with just the lich bane proc, not including her E's damage. Every time her E is up. And now imagine full build Akali jumping in and hitting the entire team with lich bane at once. Too much.

I think to make her E feel more useful would be to increase base damage a bit, or reduce the energy cost. Have it start at 50 and scale down to 30 energy, or add another ~20 base damage at all ranks.
