He's good top versus champs with no or little sustain, and inferior poke potential. It's usually good to max E, but if you're facing a strong meele laner(darius), max Q instead, to poke down hp better.

Mid, he's good versus champions with high cooldowns, especially if they rely on a single target nuke to deal damage, or on skillshots, since you can dodge them with shadow switches and ult untargetability. He's pretty mediocre versus spell dps-ers like ryze, or against high mobility champs like ahri, who can simply rush away when you try to combo them. mid it's better to max Q, again to be able to return poke without all-in-ing.

Jungle, you max E, since you're not going to lane at all. Focus on clearing very fast, and invading to steal camps as often as possible. I don't recommend ganking without ult, unless you're very sure it's a certain kill. You should be using your super fast clearing to get in front in levels, and ganking non-stop everytime you have ult after that.

About how he does in lanes, i'd say he does great in mid, top, and jungle, though in jungle you need to be a clear demon, and gank successfuly, otherwise you may have difficulty influencing mid game.

Regarding how good he is, i'd say that early game is good in harass, bad in engagements. Mid game he starts being scarier, and late game, he's a monster.

Depending on how well you can go in, you can either burst down a single target, or kill everyone. People say he's lackluster without the ult, but as long as you can manage your energy well enough to spam E, he will destroy anyone near him.

About how fun he is to play, he's a one man party. Since he came out, i play him on every occasion i can pick him. He's a bit frustrating until you learn how to consistently hit Q, and when to go in and how to utilise all his dashes properly, but it quickly fades away the first time you walk away from an opponent and he blows up 2 seconds later. He feels incredibly powerful and cool once you gain enough experience.

Regarding falling behind, he has great farming potential, due to W + E + Q, so if you know where to find farm, you'll stay relevant throughout the game
