Nitpicking:

-What type of damage are the W and R spells?

-Explosion range on the E is missing

I -know- the balance on this champion is quite out of wack, so far it looks like a melee mage.. Anyway, over the course of 5 seconds, you can get off 2 full Qs, 2 Ws, R, saving E to escape.. This leaves you with 55 Energy afterwards (2 Qs proced to return 80 Energy).

Over those 5 seconds you deal:

400 + 1.6 * AP + 1.6 * Bonus AD in Single-target damage

1560 + 4.2 * AP + 2.5 * MS difference in AoE Damage

Plus at least 2 auto-attacks in that time. That's.. a lot of potential damage within 5 seconds, if they sit there and let you kill them. Odds are you'd be exhausted and bursted down in a fight.. Rylai's and Hourglass seem like extremely good items.

As it stands, disregarding the numbers, I don't really like the kit, it really looks like you're punished extremely hard if you don't use your E at the exact timing you need to, punished even harder than Blitz or Nautilus missing their grab/anchor I'd have to say.
