Well, he just gets countered by most solo top atm. Look for example at fiora, she blocks your q with parry and then deals more dmg to you while you spin on her, while healing, too. Udyr has also a shield and turtle deals waay more dmg. Lee just dashes everytime away and denies you any creep. All of them can start with high armor, too.
