I play mao much differently, if played right and strategicaly he is a force to be reconned with at any lane. I play him mid and generaly out poke, out health, and out gold the others with a few exceptions. Mao pure ap with a couple ap health hybrid items can make his burst damage go through the roof. Not to mention his ult being strong as Foop. If you can throw your Sapling right as you grapple onto the enemy, get the sapling to land where the enemy is ( which you just snagged with your grapple ) pop your ult, hit an arcane smash, then release your ult, it can full health almost all mid laners, early and late game.
