Actually, Burke differs from other supports in that he can be played as an AD carry/support, in which case the focus would be on his passive and not his abilities.

I actually envisioned the possibility of him stunning the entire enemy team. I'd like to point out that A) With the short contagion radius, it'd be rather hard to pull off, B) The duration of the stun would be at most half the original's and C) He'd have to have at least one teammate with a stun on a short CD to ever be able to team stun every 12 seconds, lest he apply Paralyze to someone and use Plague to spread it to the enemy team, in which case he'd be lucky if he doesn't die. The radius on Plague and his melee nature also mean that to get anywhere near the enemy he'd have to expose himself, and so against an entire enemy team he'd be focused on pretty hard.
