He can still do a lot of damage without chaining it, sort of. He still needs time to set up his W, so he can't instantly flash ult someone from nothing. But if her misses his Q the W now gives him an out if the opponent doesn't kill them in time. If you have 4 - 6  voidlings ready as you ult, they will collectively do 140 + (80% AP) - 210 + (120% AP) *each hit*.
