I think that's kinda the point...of all the original long range, artillery mages (Lux, Ziggs, Xerath)...he's the one who has most trouble landing his skillshots (you need 2 ult shots to deal similar damage to Ziggs' ult)...anything with mobility makes his laning a bitch, since he can barely withstand a slap on the face...Lux is the easiest one to lane (long range, good cc for kite, decent burst that is easy to land), Ziggs is the middle ground (longer range, high burst and a cc mechanic that works as an escape) and Xerath is kinda the "hard mode" (very long range, decent cc, extreme, but difficult to land burst)...long range sniper damage is all he has...
