Every part of this guy's design is irritating to me. He has two powerful innates, one which gives him disproportionate gold value from items, and one that permits him to ignore trades almost constantly.

He's purportedly a melee carry, but has ranged poke/engage attached to hard CC with minimal downtime. It's attached to a skillshot, but it doesn't even need to be a skillshot if chained from a dash.

Ignores most armor on an absurdly low cooldown, which makes counterbuilding nearly impossible. Functionally unlimited dashes in all directions while in and around minions, which makes last-hitting highly impractical even for high-range champions.

And wind wall. Sometimes a 3-second silence/blind, sometimes virtually useless, and the difference occurs in arbitrary situations from a game balance perspective. Such a uniquely infuriating mechanic probably belonged on someone else just to dilute the hate beams. It feels out of place, counter-synergistic, and completely frustrating to play against on a champion that already has such a busy kit.
