Agreed with GreenMoriyama.

Just to add up, is imo a very strong champion, you just haven't got his mechanics yet, that's all. It's my custom to check the charts, including damage, after games, and this guy regularly places himself among the top team damage dealers. He's a late game hypertank. There are many different build paths for him, but building him as juggernaut with, tons of and stacking his  is a very scary late-game path. As one approaches the end game, the guy starts doing incredible amounts of damage. That leaves the enemy with nearly impossible choice- either focus the hypertank, burn a lot of own damage resources in the process and turn the fight into 5vs6, or ignore him and take tons of CC with even more AoE damage.

He is especially strong in teamfights, being a great engager. As for those, the rule no. 1 is to almost never flinch. is simply a champ who fights till the end. If you want to play him, you must think like a suicide bomber and fully commit to the fight. He slightly resembles, because if you want to play him properly, you want to die in the middle of enemy team at the right moment. You life's goal must be death.

If you do that all properly, the enemies will be afraid to kill you first once they learn what's going to follow next, because of your. Once you die in the teamfight, simply focus the backline carries. Not only the ones that are low on, but also those who've possibly burnt their escape tool or are the biggest damage threat for the team at that moment. You might not kill anything, but your team will win the teamfight, because the carries were busy dealing with the dead guy.

As for his laning, he also has multiple ways for his skill level-up. Starting with and maxing first is usually the best choice, especially if you feel like being zoned out. Start with and maxing first instead, is equally good in the right situations, especially against less mobile melee matchups. Starting with is not very common, but it can be a helpful sustain tool against very unfavorable matchups.

Lastly, he is not only viable as top, but as jungler or even support as well. Come to think of it, even mid doesn't sound that bad (ok, I have never tried that last one, but it sounds manageable..).
