It's still poison you have to direct onto the minions instead of the opponent, not getting the minions would be a waste if you ask me - and how many Q's you'll actually hit depends on your enemy and matchup in a way, it's not even funny anymore. The one game I had 400 stacks by 25 minutes, the other game I had hardly 200 stacks by then (#1 Xerath, #2 Orianna) - and for both about 100-130 stacks were from killed minions.

Especially vs. instaburst champions with long range like Syndra I'm quite terrified I won't get any stacks out of Q-ing her, as her retaliation will always outdo your damage :-/
