This looks like if Blitz would be made today, and as a fighter, AND Riot decided that the champ needed to have higher skill floor and ceiling.

I'm thinking that this kit has so much free auto attack damage and heavy CC (capped off with that ult burst), that one of those things has to be nerfed so much that it will end up being negligible. If AA stuff is nerfed, he's like Blitz now; If CC is nerfed, he's like Irelia or Udyr.

That Q is also crazy. 1 sec additional stun at the start, and you can reposition yourself before the pull (or that's what I gathered, why else have it reactivatable). The overdrive version of it is bad in two ways, autopull is worse than the normal version, and different velocities in the same ability makes it bad for the enemy. It's tough to gauge and memorize the skill when it comes at you at different speeds.
