I noticed that his damage early on when playing Junglesticks, is very low and very reliant on QEW combo which makes him lose a lot of mana. And back then, his base mr reduction helps him a lot when it comes to dueling. Now he's reliant on rushing Void Staff than Jungler's item and he can't get it early due to his bad clears and mana issues that could get him far behind on gold and exp.

Plus, his passive is only useful in lane for dodging skillshots while last hitting. 25-40% bonus ms doesn't help him much, it only helps him catch up on squishies with his ult.

When playing Middlesticks you can at least use your passive more often. And Middle sticks is probably the most effective way in using him. You can get gold much easier, you get Void Staff early and some defensive items like Spirit Visage, Zhonya's and prob Hextech Gunblade. He can get the enemy midlaner to half health after EW combo. What he's best at is getting the enemy midlaner behind on cs due to your consistent poke.

He only have 2 bad matchups which are Lux and Vel'Koz (Catcher, Burst and Artillery mages all at once), but you can play around their abilities with your passive.

Generally, he's good at puuting your enemy midlaner behind. And in teamfight he can still oneshot squishies with EW combo but once focused he's get shit on.

I love this champ, but he's getting a rework so it must be a bad idea XD. Plus tank being meta? Bruh...
