I don't think his E ever reduced MR. I've looked over all his patch notes since his creation and I can't find it, please link me it.

I don't have time to go into the cost analysis of his kit but I can give a general understanding, at lvl 18.

Armor:78 (About average for a bruiser)   MR:52.5 (All champs have either 30 or 52.5 MR) Health: 2030 (About average for bruiser)

AD:116.3 (Pretty high) Attack Speed: 1.015 (Very fast) Move Speed: 350 (fast)

His kit then adds 40 armor reduction, 600 health, and up to an additional 300 AD.

The ult is worth (in stats, not including the aoe) 2.64(600health) + 36(300AD). 1,584+10,800= 12,384 Gold. Yet it is very rare to reach 300 bonus AD as the bonus AD comes out to be 6.375% of 5% which is 0.31875% per second of each targets' health. (If a target has 3000hp you will gain 9.56AD per second(not including MR)). Not only that you have to take into aspect MR so in the end it never (or very, very rarly) comes out to be 300 AD or even up to 200 AD.

Removing the AD from his ult I could actually see as a nerf but if Riot goes that route I doubt they will do anything with his Q for awhile.
