Its a he actually,and he was heavily nerfed so he kinda lost a lot of his strenghts,like every part of his kit was nerfed,passive a little,q quite some,w in duration,e a ton and the ult a lot,like what the hell,150 range lost on E,less damage,ms,base damage on q,less duration on spell shield,less heal early on passive,less range on ult and damage,way more CD.Everything was nerfed to the point it became pointless to pick him,he isnt horribly,but borderline viable.His clear is ok,his ganks pre 6 are okaysh and after 6 are god like but it has such a cd that if someone burns his flash itll take just 2 more minutes before its up,if they take those boots which reduce cd and the mastery its up as often as nocs ult(this is just an example,it doesnt always happen).

So to get to the point,those are just a couple of reasons,the other being the meta shift,he is a carry mostly,semi whatever,but he needs items and farm,he doesnt work bot,neither mid,somewhat top but noone want to try because his ult is wasted a lot.So he is left in the jungle were he is gold starved and needs to buy locket,aegis and shit,meaning you are gona delay his damage so much its insane.Getting a botrk early is good,but it wont win you the game,you are squishy.FOr example nautilus is more usefull than noc,more cc,more tankyness,shittier clear but after that he is good to go,works without too many items and has amazing goddam ganks too,and less reliant on champs not having flash.

THink thats all,lack of gold in the jungle + meta shift+ tons of nerfs kinda made people dislike playing him.
