If his ratios were increased, he'd be broken. They're all AOE, and for the most part they all fall within Abyssal Scepter's MR-reduction aura, so with MR runes and MP boots, you're doing full damage to everyone. If he had, say, 70%AP on Lightning Rush and Electrical Surge, I'd be able to start two-hitting entire creep waves by level 8 or so, and I'd be so fed from minion kills I doubt I'd even *need* champion kills. If his Shuriken had any moderately higher ratio, I'd wreck my mid opponents because I'd be doing so much damage. As for his ultimate, think of it as a weird, spastic DoT--630+full AP over the space of about a second. Definitely doesn't need a buff.

Besides, he's an energy character, and my cooldowns on him consistently hit 5s or lower by end game--they're definitely not long. Generally speaking, I'm a freight train of damage in team fights by about level 14. I may not be able to 1v1 or assassinate people, but I can do upwards of 5000 damage in a team fight by then--that's half or more of each enemy champ's health.
