Singed's R gives him Mana Regen but costs 150 Mana
Why?
HEALTH AND MANA RESTORED OVER 25 SECS: 175 / 250 / 400
So basically you only restore 25/100/250 Mana over 25 seconds

Because it additionally offers him:

There. Go check it yourself if you think I'm lying. Jeez, such ungrateful brats, always wanting to have everything that is low-cost.
That just isn't really why. It is because he shouldn't be able to use it while he doesn't have mana, otherwise he would be able to never really worry about mana at all.
Because I actually deserve to have a chance to kill the bastard if I catch him OOM.
delayed gratification.
you put part of the mana cost in, and in exchange, you gain a larger amount back, in addition to the other stat steroids it gives.
so it isn't free cost but doesn't cripple his mana usage (very important considering his playstyle of ulting, running in and spending a lot of time in fight using up mana with his Q + those Ws and Es when possible)
The exact same reason mundo's ult costs so much HP
Fun fact: You can suicide with mundo ult
No, you can't
because it boosts most of his stats mana and health regen included
It gives him mana regen because mid-late game it is important to him. However, they want Singed to have to worry at least a little bit about his mana costs. They therefore need to give it a higher cost.
I guess, anyway...
I know right. Its sheer INSANITY.
Because its insanity potion... how did i get downvoted.
Guys the name of singed's R is insanity potion. How are you not getting this.
OMG STOP DOWNVOTING ME!!!! This is driving me insane!! It really sticks in my craw... like mega-sticks! If you don't stop i'll probably fling something across the room and leave a toxic trail all thru soloQ. This is a bunch of empowered bulwark if you ask me!!!
Because who gives a shit by 15 minutes in that's 5% of his max mana.
It actually more than refunds the cost over its duration. And it's probably to gate his early power somewhat
He builds SO much mana though. I have generally not had mana problems on him
He could stand to get MR/level if anything.
