He stayed with 3 turrets for a long time... until S1 started, then people realized that he was still impossible to ever beat in mid. So they started really long series of nerfs.. 5 straight patches every patch hardcore nerfing his abilities, ratios, ranges, tower damage, anything they could think of to weaken his early game without giving him anything back, and he still dominated, he didn't stop being banned every game practically for 3 months in a row while riot threw harder and harder nerfs at him trying to stop his laning.. they finally had to bring his turrets from 3 down to 2, and that, along with halving all his scaling, getting rid of most his tower damage, reducing the range on every single one of his abilities, was FINALLY enough to stop him in lane.
