I dont know about the ap version of this hero, but it seems a little broken to me as an ad champ.

W Passive: Every third attack deals extra ap dmg and if it crits +ap dmg +2.5 seconds of silence You need approximately 1.2 AS to keep the target silenced idefinetely, just by AA him. As long as he gets C Chance by %missing mana you understand whit an IE and PD this hero becomes invisible. Even trynda cant beat him, since all you have to do is outstand him 5 secs and then hes done, since he cant heal due to the silence. And with a slow (red buff or Frozen Mallet) he cant run either, coz cant use his Spinning Slash (nor flash)...

Mages are just screwed because their fleeing capabilities rely on their CC, which come from abilities, which cant be used because the are silenced.

So you have to either stun/surpress him and burst him down ASAP or just die

Broken....
