You got it all wrong. He's too safe when he has his items while also dealing considerably high damage.

He's tanky because of, but powerful because of his scalings. While it isn't impossible to burst him down, the fact that his is on such a low cooldown makes it difficult to pin him down for a kill.

So as you are running around trying to chase his ass to kill him. He's building up that strength so that when his team comes to cuck your bad position, he pops in with explosive damage from a fully stacked.

won't feel strong when he doesn't get the high damage after his tankiness. He also won't feel strong if despite his gargantuan mobility, he still gets caught and killed. late game strength is the fact that he can very well have both power and survivability while being too slippery to stop easily.

Put simply, he's meta Tank.
