His range makes him really great agianst those who are easily kited, people with jumps and dashes would give you trouble, but you should have no problem laning cautiously agianst a select few tops, plus your doing magic damage, in blind pick most will run armor yellows agianst top lane. Wards will help, and if your pressured, arcano pulse will allow to scrape a few minion kills where others could not. Also the stun makes for a good initiation for a gank, and you can harass enemies under thier turret. Potions, keeping at range, and flash should prevent a few deaths, but be very passive before you have your stun.
