- She is extremely mana hungry before a Chalice. Her ball deals low damage if the opponent is decent, and using W just drains her mana even more. Her AA range is shorter than many popular mid laners (and again, vs decent opponent, that 25 range does matter alot). So there are enough of restriction.

- She is never meant to have a weak early game. She is meant to be strong early. Her mid-late is super overrated. Her RW combo damage is like what 1.4 AP - wooohooo, so much damage (enter huge sarcasm). It is the disruption that matters. Q is spammable, but still deals low damage.

The sole reason why people believe her late game to be amazing is that it's the time of big team fight. Try playing a comp with no reliable hard initiation and see how much Ori sucks. A champion that super reliant on the right team comp can never be called " good & safe pick all the time".
