Senna ADC
Instead of a reduction of souls drop rate from killing minions what if Senna got reduced minion gold instead?
Having a 1% soul drop rate if she kills a minion will make it feel really bad to clean up waves and such in the later game.

I don't play a ton of senna but I have to agree the direction of the soul drop rate nerf seems somewhat in the wrong direction as opposed to simply maybe reducing scaling off souls or something like that.
That's the whole point. As Adc, she will still get stacks off champions and off large cannons, but she will average 25-50 less range and less access to crit and flat AD as compensation for being allowed to play with a Support who has hard CC and allows her to just outright scale off champions.
Keep in mind it's not as bad as it sounds. Even pros miss about 20-25% of CS coming at them, meaning if you encounter 280 CS in a game, some 22 will be cannon minions. On top of that, about 70 will be missed kills, giving out about 14 more stacks. Of the ones you DO kill, you will get another 3.5
That puts you at about 40 stacks organically as an adc in pro situations, more if you are a BAD adc (more 20% opportunities).
That's not including champion poke or jungle camps, or Drakes/Barons/Heralds.
You'll still scale 80-100 stacks. You just won't scale 120-140.
Given greater gold income, greater access to lane CC (like Leona/Naut/Blitz) you should be getting more stacks off champions anyways (Support actually struggles to poke because most lane ADCs don't create enough opportunities for Senna to double poke without being counterpoked. It's a hell of a lot easier for Nautilus to CC for 3 seconds, Senna CC for 2 seconds, and gain 3-4 stacks in the exchange, than for say a Miss Fortune with a Senna to vs a Jhin and a Vel koz to poke, peel, etc. With most adcs, Senna Support generally just doesn't have enough lane CC vs Adc Senna.
