This is the first I've heard of him being "not viable". As far as I know he's still one of the most hotly contested picks in gold-plat.

His strengths are that he has one of the highest late game damage if not the highest. And his stealth gives him the positioning advantage that other ADCs could only dream of. Meanwhile his trading power in lane is obscene, he auto wins fights against anyone who can't burst or poke him down.

Meanwhile his weaknesses are that he's rather vulnrable to ganks early on. He needs to keep on equal footing with his lane opponent because of his short range and low burst early on.

Twitch isn't a poke style ADC, nor is he a burst style ADC who can win trades if his support gets a stun. Twitch deals in extended trading power, early game his damage slowly ramps up as he lands more auto attacks.
