It's possible I'm just bad, but I found him pretty underwhelming. I was laning against a Kennen though, and that guy seems to destroy champions with non-direct spells (like Cass). Any time I threw out E and then Q, he would dodge the Q with complete ease and then unload on me.

In general I just found him pretty clunky, and as far as high-range AP carries go, prefer Orianna and Brand and their kite-y playstyle.
