Because it is very powerful in some situations. It can kill anyone in an instant. For example if you play as Tryndamere vs Garen. Naturally as Trynda you will wait around 100 health to activate your ultimate so you will maximize the usefulness of your ultimate.

Garen then uses ultimate on you while you have around 400-500 health and kills you in an instant.

You fight him as, let's say Olaf and you actually benefit from having lower health. So you continue to attack Garen and then BOOOM! He uses ultimate on you instantly killing.
