If he was MORE overpowered, we would have seen a more powerful nerf. You've said yourself that Riot aims for balance. Therefore, you can't argue that they were nerfing him to make him unbalanced. They were nerfing him because they felt that he was too powerful, even if by a little bit. The degree by which they nerfed him doesn't make a difference: the fact that they did nerf him across the board means that, in order for him to be balanced, they felt they needed to bring his power level down. And that means that he was not balanced.
