Playing in this rework, I've found that  can both handle and deal with counterjungling a lot better now. Due to the sheild scaling very well with health and the fracture allowing for an instant stun, he reacts very easily to enemies he finds in the jungle. I completely dominated a due to the newfound jungle control  suddenly has. I even counter jungled more than he counter jungled me.

Outside of that, I do agree that this does gut dueling potential quite a bit when he is away from the crystals. If there is anything I like about the new though, it would have to be that he is a lot more instant. I wouldn't really say bursty, but the shifts in ratios does make him feel more bursty rather than ramping up in damage. It seems a lot more reliable than what he was before at least, needing to pull off 3 just to get mediocre dueling power. At least his stun is more instantaneous and his ult scales off of total attack damage.
