Veigar Ult Change

Veigar What if, instead of having all of the damage up front, what if his R lost some damage and instead did the same damage IF his target were within his E walls? Like, what if his E collapsed / imploded if Veigar used R on someone inside of it? Be it stunned from the walls or just stuck in there.

This could add a cool element of counterplay AND more damage for Veigar if multiple enemies were trapped inside. Only one would take the R damage, but everyone else could take the make-up damage from the W collapse. It could be super cool.

EDIT: To anyone saying Veigar already has counterplay and/or is weak, I think his ult is pretty much the reason why. I think it holds him back because it is a point and click nuke. With a change like this, I think more power could be budgeted towards his other skills, be it some range or something else. I personally think the R lacks counterplay and takes up ~35% of his budget, with ~45% of it going to his E which is more or less fine.

What if no. He's just fine as he is. He already has massive amounts of counterplay in his entire kit including his R.

He has W for AoE damage and E for AoE zoning/CC. He doesn't need more. His R is perfectly balanced and is extremely easy to counterplay.

all his abilities have incredibly low range, try ulting a brand and not getting exploded or ahri charmed.

Veigar already has lots to worry about right now, with earlier GAs, lane opponents rushing banshees veil, and lots of common champs have a moment of invulnerability to dodge his ulti

The counterplay to his R is that it's an execute and the rest of his kit is skillshots. Unless he's super fed, ulting a full health target won't really do much damage.
