^ He really does feel stronger this season to me... Something about what they did in the pre-season changes really helped champs who have good base damages or good early burst. I find myself dominating early/mid-game a lot more and doing quite respectable damage for those levels.

I really recommend as much MPen as you can put on him, for seals get mana regen/5/level, it makes a big difference... The only other runes I would think of using on him are cooldown reduction and Movespeed. AP runes, however, are garbage for him, even early... Mpen runes will increase his damage much more than AP all game, starting from level 1 and only getting better as he levels skills and gets gear.
