In my opinion hecarim really doesn't need any buffs/nerfs(yes I play hecarim).

It really depends on your playstyle with him, while his kit isn't designed to do 1v1 damage his ability to initiate/ counter initiate while doing extremely fast AoE damage is quite impressive. Combine this with a heal from his W he becomes extremely hard to kill.

His cool downs may be harsh but if you build max cool down reduction on him they actually will become quite low.

So yes there are champions that excel at all parts of his kit, but I can not think of any that offer the utility he do in a team fight. The ability to fear then knock a enemy carry into your team is as some people have stated OP.
