Have noticed too a pattern now with Senna: "Life" much more than a metaphysical or existential concept is somewhat described as a substance. Another example of this (that you dismissed) is the Oasis of the Dawn, that can bring back the dead to life with enough power, or the blessed water that only exist on Yorick's pendant (which could very be the same waters of the Oasis but another poddle, assuming they were once a singular body of water once), which is the sole reason he has survived contact with the Black Mist without side-effects.

However, associating this with Mana feels irking (or at least personally, since that's already been used on Magic: the Gathering. Same goes with Angels being associated with white mana, or the very existence of White and consequentially Black mana), so don't see interest on applying it to LoL. Also, there's no point on introducing Angels to the canon anymore when the only two we had were retconned to humans that sprout wings because greek-roman aliens lost a soldier.

And Senna isn't innately connected to the Black Mist, she survived direct contact with the Mist without protection and this cursed her to be tracked by it until consumed, much like the sacrifice-survivors from Berserk for example. Over-stretching Senna into an Angel doesn't feel right.

The only thing that I can agree with is that Life somehow is a quantifyable substance, that on the Blessed Isles was corrupted, which resulted on Death becoming a quantifyable substance, this substance eventually resulted on the Black Mist.
