There is really only one core problem with his kit that I can see: he has no impactful utility outside of a knock-up that seems super difficult to orchestrate. He would be fairly reliant on items to stay relevant as the game progresses, much in the same way marksman do. He could have the potential to dominate his lane with the pressure his soldiers give him, but if he doen't get snowballing I don't see him scaling terribly well. He reminds me of Illoai in that sense (even their ultimates appear very similar).
