it drains your mana pool rediculously and is your only source of waveclear/poke

Please reduce the cost to something like 70/80/90/100/110 instead of 70/85/100/115/130, Riot. I want to have a choice between going raw AP early or going mana regen, not ONLY mana regen early.

The one thing I'm kind of frustrated with is that ziggs got mana cost buffs this patch while Lux is still stuck in the mud. I am happy for ziggs but I felt like lux is still behind. I wouldn't feel bad about Lux if she could actually waveclear witih E. Morgana has the same mana cost on tormented soil but atleast Morgana can waveclear with tormented soil without rushing deathcap and having to worry about going oom in 2 seconds.

It costs too much. Yes they're buffing athene's but that still isn't going to magically make her better than other champions that can use athene's. In fact, if she is just poking or waveclearing like she should in a lot of situations, she'll probably run out of mana pretty easily, even with the new athene's. Whereas other champions seem to have abilities that are about as good but don't cost nearly as much mana.

they buffed athene's grail, it should help her a lot

The problem still exists, though: She can't go for a Rabadon, Zhonya, or anything else until she gets either a Grail or Morello first, or she'll constantly mana-burn after two rotations or less.

pretty much most of the mages go morello first nowadays even nidalee

They can still try going Rabadon or Luden first if they get ahead or get fed. Lux can't do that because she'll burn too much; even if she gets fed, she has to go mana regen first, not high AP.
