For a lot of different reasons. He's annoying, not broken. There is a reason why we don't see him a whole lot in pro play. For starters, he isn't "excessively safe." He is really weak pre-6, and has to blow is only escape to clear waves. Sure, if you try to engage on him while his e is on cooldown he'll escape but he has to use it to go on the offensive. In addition, his ult is very difficult to use late game, as it is slow and easily body blocked. That really gimps his assassination potential. Kassadin and Akali, on the other hand, are unstoppable if they are ahead. You can at least dodge or build stuff like Qss for fizz. You can't for either of them, so they become oppressive if they have snowballed or are particularly strong.
