meh, the damage reduction is more important anyways. That's not what marks a bad maokai player imo. He does take some time to learn, but doing so is extremely rewarding. He has good CC, good support, and good pushing, and can be built both as a tanky mage or as a tank and works well in both roles, allowing you to play in most games. Not to mention he's good at both laning AND jungling.
