And his passive. Before the rework his passive didn't have a scaling at all. They nerfed the W AP ratio from 62.5% to 40% and E from 50% to 30%, but they added a 50% AP ratio on his passive.

In other words he 'lost' 42.5% AP ratio in his spells but gained 50% in his passive, making him scaling more than before in total (7.5% more scaling than pre rework). And that doesn't even take into account the ult buff (from 60% to 125% AP scaling), the resent Q buff (from 60% to 80% AP) or the base damage changes.

In total he now has a 375% AP scaling in a Q + W + E + R (two passive procs) rotation while he only had a 232.5% AP scaling with the same rotation before the rework. The spells alone are weaker than before, but the passive and ult are much, much stronger. Means you massively get rewarded for hitting combos instead of randomly throwing out spells.
