Make a little compare, shall we:

Ahri's E: dealing magic damage, hard-CC for 1-2s and deals bonus 20% damage for 6s. Cost 85 Mana. Cooldown: 12.

Lustrum's E: no damage, no CC, the target gets 70% increase damage BUT will be healed back for 35% at max rank. Cost 120 mana for the same duration. Cooldown: 12 for the same duration as Ahri's E.

I don't think that skill is that OP. High mana cost. No damage and no CC. Just deals more damage (when used on enemy). I want this champ to be powerful but for just a little time (6s). If I decrease it to 40% and maybe decrease the manacost, will you ever want to play Lustrum? There are some supports are good at some aspect (Leona and Morgana for CC, Soraka for Healing, Janna and Karma for kiting). I want my support to be best when trade and somewhat protecting the carry (6s would allow the carry finish off the enemy carry while healing from auto attack for the next 6s).

Also remember, she has only one skill thats deal damage and a condition CC ultimate. An enemy team with high CC would make the 6s duration meaning less.
