Don't forget that he can potential deal damage in the team fights from a safe distance and jump in when it's safe. His main job is to use his full combo in less than a second on the ADC he ults, so he does a pretty good job despite the lack of hard CC. However, it's not as though Riot hasn't made CC less assassins (Katarina). While his ult still has problems, you just have to see it from a different perspective. Instead of a flat burst, it's a combo reset or initiate that deals additional damage at the end of the combo.

Besides, its still entirely possible for him to kill a carry without even being near there like Fizz. It just takes creativity to do so.
