Only in lane... as has been said before, and you can determine for yourself if you look at ANY riot posts about him... his laning was broken... his mechanics do not let you trade damage with him there, and he used to be able ot just inch turrets up to the tower... and not a rework, it was 5 straight patches in a row of nerfs to him... he was NEVER considered overpowered late... they tried to just rebalance him, they addressed his worst problems (like him nuking towers) right away, but they had to continue to nerf him, because they couldn't figure out a way to stop him from being unbeatable in lane... the only thing that stopped him was them taking away literally half his damage and slamming ratios AND range on every ability which were ALREADY balanced, but just working too well together in lane.
