In practice, it really isn't as powerful as it could be, but the cooldown is warranted as it's still a two second snare on an AD carry, and it can potentially lock down an entire enemy team in some circumstances. In lane, that's almost a guaranteed kill. In teamfights, that's a lot of disruption.

It's sort of like if was based on luck and was a skillshot.
