The new skin isn't really great tho. It's ok, but not on par with the other skins that riot has released latly and compared with all the other new skins on PBE it's the worst. The animations are kinda nice, but the model is just...nah.

GLP used to be core on him, but that was before it became a Lost Chapter item and lost its health. Health is essential for him, as he likes extended fights and allways is at risk to get dove on. Rod of Ages currently is the best and pretty much only option he has. With items like Oblivion Orb/Morello, Rylais and Liandrys he is getting quite beefy. But of course it takes quite a while to gather all of them. Unlike most meta champions he doesn't have an early powerspike at the moment, that's why he isn't quite popular (plus the fact that he isn't easy to play). The games are too fast for him atm.
