It's a knee-jerk reaction from most people who see Vel'Koz as the "perfect example of a release/new champion that is balanced"(AKA: Not a target of balance buffing/nerfing) even though VelKoz is by far one of the most generic mages of the game.

All that Riot has done is giving him a niche to be picked and not be bodied by absolutely everything that builds even a little bit of MR and HP by allowing his Ultimate to deal True Damage if it hit a marked enemy.

Most squishies will die if they get hit by Vel'Koz combo regardless if the Ultimate applies paasive or true damage. They are just giving VelKoz a more defined niche as a "Tank Buster" and allow him to coexist in a world where his pure damage base and squishy busting is not just simply soaked by a Tank that passes right through his Ultimate.
