yep CC would be a pain for this champ but i was thinking of a duelist fit for 1v1(in top lane perhaps? since he has quite some debuffs and CC's as well) then he strictly needs some ally to initiate before he comes in if he needs to participate in a team fight. For highly mobile champs...hmmm...don't have an issue on that(just mark them his official counters,can't have it all T^T). and yeah nimble shadow may be not enough to compensate for CC's more than 2 but mercurial and banshee's(?). And as for tank carry combos he just needs some support of his own (maybe like Lulu?)

Thumper is cool btw perhaps he can be that initiator for this champ?XD (Q and R is kinda weird though)
