OH boi, I'm a main too! And I see how great is. I personally think that the sustain and his mobility are really key things that make him good--I mean think about it: positioning for the stun, ms boost heal, chimes that stack ms, an ult that requires allies to react quickly.

I find that the main issue of in the mid-game is his stun. He can only stun two people. Early game, there are usually only two people in lane though mid game rolls around and there are more than two. That means there are many other enemies to account for.

I find that poke is essential from the team to make the mid-game work, because there is no point in landing a stun if the enemies are so ready to counter an all-in. The only way to set up an all-in from there is for the enemies to get low on health first--unless your team is so fed that an all-in would 100-0 at least 2 enemies. This is actually a reason why I find to have a strong synergy with.
