You're right that Baleful Strike might be overloaded (was it the word you were looking for?). I wanted an effect that could give Veigar more opportunities to harass his opponent in lane, and cause chaos in late-game teamfights, but in the worst-case scenario changing his Q to the one he's receiving on the PBE might make it a lot more streamlined. I do kinda like the effect, though, as I think it has good gameplay and gives Veigar power beyond just bursting down single targets, so if he's healthy with it I'd rather he keep it.
