His strength isn't his damage, it's that he's one of the only ADCs to make good use of IBG, and I've tried blue build on a bunch of other characters. He gets a hefty bit of armor which shines against all of the AD running around, and even APs have a hard time popping him if he buys Mercurial Scimitar. While he's as inconsistent as he ever was, he's much more forgiving in the survivability department. Add that to the E buff that rewards offensive usage a bit more, and he's a very potent pick right now.
