If he fucks up his taunt/it gets juked, his mana is destroyed. He's also pretty hard countered by ranged harass since his shield is low duration and his only ranged poke is Vorpal Blade. Vorpal destroys early game against melee tops, but he really is countered pretty harshly early by most AP tops.

Playing melee is just asking to be spanked by him though. Unless you happen to be playing a certain crocodilian.
