@Riot Idea for Syndra's passive

I have a suggestion for Syndra's passive concerning either Q or even her ult.

Since it seems a bit redundant to just add damage ontop of damage (as it is now), I think it would be much nicer to change maxing her Q's effect to something like: "Syndra's Dark Spheres will stay an additional [x] seconds before disappearing."

The way she is now (or the way she used to be before the changes), you could easily one shot a many squishy mid-laner or ADC just with QEWR, maybe throw in another Q before your ult if you were feeling fancy, but it was generally unnecessary. But the fact that her ult uses all the dark spheres currently lying on the field never meant as much as I feel it should have, since a single one ontop of the three that the ult fires off by itself was more than enough to decimate any squishy in one combo anyway.

Now, the nerfs to her Q's damage obviously hit her hard, but we can compensate by allowing her to cast/have more of those at the same time on the field so that each individual Q would deal less damage, but she could stack them up in a way that would allow Syndra's to ultimately fire off an insane barrage of 7-8 Dark Spheres (or more??) right into the enemy's face. It would be less instantaneous burst, but it would take some more effort to pull off. Also, I think it would definitely fulfill the fantasy of Unleashed Power much better since it would look and feel much more impactful.

Anyway, that's my suggestion. I don't know how the community feels about 'assassin' Syndra that one-shots everything with four button presses, but since there's talk of the passive going on, I figured I'd share my idea.
