Feinting blocks far more health if you're up against Harassment champions. In the laning phase, you don't want to be always attacking, because you risk pushing too far; that limits your Vorpal Blade severely, and so you really won't be under the healing effect 24/7. Meanwhile, Feint -always- works.

It's a fair trade of giving up damage / giving up staying power, as I see it. Feint is balanced as any other one of his skills.
