I considered that, but at the same time, he doesn't really get too much of a drawback even though he's lost his main steroid as his spells have fairly long cooldowns. He'll still deal carry damage without it.

The main gameplay schtick he has going for him is trying to successfully skirt the edge of his heat limits without going too far and destroying your damage output. If he wants to use skills too, then he needs to keep his heat even lower.
