Well that's the thing. He's a health based champ. Usually there is some sort of sustain to make up for a loss of health with champs that use health as a cost in their resources.

They reckoned "Well he takes health so he should steal health as well." which I suppose is fine but with spell vamp and his damage amplifiers he gains more health the more damage he deals and he scales with his health by getting more AP and gets more Health the more AP he gets which makes his sustain better once he starts getting his expensive big ticket items in.

Early game you can't quite keep yourself together against a tough opponent but as I mentioned once you buy the sustain your natural sustain and your free health and AP makes you quite overwhelming.

It's one of the reasons why he needs a rework. His kit has always been toxic. When it was out of meta it was out of mind but now...
