I think they cut his damage on some things (venom, Attack) and made it rather OP on some other (Expunge (especially if with Ult... that HURTS!); but I think they will even that out - since he is still meant to be an AS-Champ, as far as I see that. But as he is right at the moment, he is NOT useless.

They didn't ruin his roaming potential; it's just a bit more difficult. Just try the Mobility Boots and PD, and you'll end at kinda 470 Speed with correct masteries. Hit your Q and youll end up at probably 520 - even Rammus would be impressed. You can gank mid in that 8 seconds.

To be sure, this is a optimistic calculation - though, he is still very very viable as ganker and roamer.
