THe ult is really kinda garbage early game,like seriously,3 minutes to wait untill your oponent dies,he just calls the jungler and you suddenly have a 4-5 minute cooldown on your ult,lategame its different,you can search for the carry and just use it on him and then let him die and push to win the game.However i guess this works like any debuff and it can be removed by qss,and can be denied by zilean/guardian angel,so there is counterplay.If anything the q can prove to be op,at level 9 with some cdr you can spam that spell 3-4 times and rack up a ton of damage on the enemy.
