Not worth buying an item that only enhances your ultimate. Sure, the ult hits like a truck then, but if you just stick with buying AP, it will increase the damage of both your basic abilites and your ult.

I'm terrible at maths and I can't show it to you, but if you get, for example, a Seraph's Embrace instead of Muramana, the damage will add up and if you do the full ability rotation on a single enemy, it will roughly do the same damage as if you were with Muramana. Plus to do that damage with Muramana, you have to have 7 spheres, which is virtually impossible against any smart enemy that will react to you building up spheres. In a normal situations you should get about 4 or 5 of them at a maximum, at least I do. And if you got Seraph's Embrace AND Muramana, you just used 2 item slots to enhance a single ability.

Sure, it's really fun and I built it multiple times, but to be honest not building it just seems better in game.

P.S. at the time when people only started to think about Muramana Syndra, her Q used to proc it. It was a bug, but back then Muramana was really strong on Syndra, and I remember  people going "lolwut" on me when I just proc Muramana 10 times on them.
