If you were guaranteed hitting people with the E, he'd be more than broken. I've had my HP bursted from 1/3rd to zero from one E+Crimson Rush Q combo at level 3. It shouldn't even be that strong, yet somehow it is. Holding onto that E makes it so much harder to dive him now. Literally just hold your bar just above 50% and wait until the opponent dives, E+augmented Q and you easily and effortlessly win trades. Before you'd just all in him pre-6 with any dive champ and he'd always lose. Unless you were playing stupid, you'd never lose trade against him. He's been definitely changed for the better. You just gotta play him different than you used to pre-rework, and you'll get the same results.
