It's just that with Maokai you're kinda relying a lot on your team to do things. In solo queue, in my opinion, you're better off getting a tanky damage dealer because champs like Xin, Voli, Vi and Jarvan can get on the carry and actually finish the carry off. Mao can't do that, he's a protector but you can't protect idiots in solo-queue. That's the reason I have stopped using him in Ranked, but I agree he's damn good and my most favorite tank.
