Eversince they removed his silence, his potential in the midlane just dropped. Most mages outrange and zone him effectively, making him have a hard time farming. Rake is his only waveclear and ranged ability but unfortunately, it isn't mana-friendly during the early game. I think he is now much suitable in the toplane where everything is all about sustain and farming. You have the option to freeze your lane (to deny your lane opponent some gold) or push it and start roaming (just Rake your way through those minion waves). I just find Talon top much better nowadays.
