So from my understanding--seeing him played on the pbe and everything, his passive works like this:

While Kled is mounted, all damage is routed to Skaarl. So like if you're taking turret or aggro while mounted, and then it depletes all of skaarl's health, the turret or minion will keep targetting Skaarl until he runs off screen. Then the minion or turret will reset their aggro like normal. This makes Kled a really proficient tower diver if you build him tanky.

Also, while mounted, single target cc will apply to skaarl only too. So if you get stunned or snared or slowed and then lose your mount, Kled will no longer be cc'd. The only exceptions I see to this would be AOE long-term cc, like a Soraka silence or a Nunu ult, which can re-apply to Kled after he loses his mount.

People are building him with strong AD, but I think where he will shine with his passive and cc-heavy kit will be either as a bruiser or a pure tank. That way, Skaarl gets alot of bonus tankiness, and Kled gets the right resistances or enough lifesteal to be able to stay alive while disnounted long enough to get Skaarl back (maybe Warlords could help here). His ratios are high enough to get significant benefit from a triforce or black cleaver or ravenous hydra rush, then tank iems after that.
