Lack of hard engage/disengage pre-6, obscene mana costs, shield works as a defense stat buff rather than damage absorption which makes it weak in the early levels. Pair him with an ADC that can look after him/herself in lane (Caitlyn, Ezreal, Kalista) and it should be a decent botlane lineup. Particularly if you pair him with Kalista, level 6 will be a brutal wombo combo.
