I used to play before they nerfed him. It was a curious case, was during many time one of the champions with the highest winrate but with very low popularity, pros used to play it in tournaments, but someone at riot got bored about it and decided it was the time to nerf (bet that rammus will have the same luck), they overally nerfed his kit, and was not so powerful but still viable. That was, V3.5, and V3.7, then 3.10 introduced the that could increadibly counter him, yet no buffs nor changes in his kit since the nerfs on V3.7...
