I think I figured out one of the reasons I like Maokai so much. It's that his ganks are fairly idiot-proof. Yeah, as a tank he's (rarely) going to deal enough damage to pick up the kill by himself, but with a targeted snare straight into a knockback straight into a slow right from level 3 (or even 2 if you were determined to gank early and sacrificed sapling-stacking at blue) even the slowest of laners tend to realise that "hey the jungler's here I should probably attack them now".
