I think he feels really good to play, but I wish he were given the opportunity to scale better, even if it would come at the cost of his phenomenal base damage. He has amazing reach, AoE and crowd control, but so do champions like and, yet they're allowed to have much better scalings across the board. His ult, for example, was originally given a low AP ratio because of how much variance it had in playtesting, but I think now he can be allowed to scale better, and even have an AP ratio on his true damage passive.

Right now, Vel'Koz's biggest weakness is mobile mid laners, who can avoid most of his damage, which along with his low scalings and high crowd control makes him better-suited to bot lane. Because of this, it's difficult to appreciate his AP ratios, especially since he can do decently with just a, but eventually I think he should be given the chance to scale well in mid matchups that favor him.
