He stacks AP faster and has lower mana costs and higher Q range that can hit multiple targets. And the nerfs...basically all they did was give his E and Q counterplay (delay / skillshot). Also technical nerf from removing DFG but usually that only allowed him to kill tanks and AD champs, when he was designed to not be able to do that, though if he lands both his skillshots you're basically dead anyway.
