I agree... while he is strong in his lane as a mid, preferably you want a mid that can be flexible and assist other lanes and get good ganks as well. He mainly just gets farmed. He's just not really mobile enough unless you set teleport on him, and even then he's not the best of gankers. If in a solo lane, I'd say he's better off top.

And I agree, I really love him as support. As you said, his turrets give very good brush control, can act as lane wards in a pinch, and are good for making a quick defensive 'you shall not pass' position that can really throw the enemy off and turn around those fights. He's a very good harasser too, and can really make things very hard for the enemy carry while being pretty aggressive. As a support, I think he actually is best supporting in a kill lane and being aggressive, oddly enough for a champ who is so defensive when solo.
