You nailed it down, the cast animation is just way too long. Making it scale with attack speed sounds nice but since he is more of an AD caster attackspeed would be a waste on him.

I build him with Black Cleaverinto full fulltank (i add Steraks if im ahead), since his base Stats are pretty good the damage is fine. And together with his ult and the e passive he really can endure a lot in teamfights.

Playing him like u suggest sounds strange, if u just want to benefit from the 20% Lifesteal u can play Nasus.
