Uhhhh...yeah, hes not balanced at all. For being a tanky character, he lacks uh....tankiness? His ult is entirely dependent on the intelligence of his team (unless used on yourself) so is often wasted, and his damage outside of Omen of War + sheen/triforce burst is fairly laughable. Yes, he can stomp low level games just like DEEPS Soraka, but that hardly makes him balanced on a competitive level.

The most glaring weakness is his ghoul's duration...they really are entirely useless, except for the Famine one in laning phase because of the healing (which once again, is limited due to the pathetic ghoul lifespan). Being even decent on him requires a ton of effort, and is often easily ignored when the enemy team does even decently well.

Basically, he is UP as some claim. And you can know how to play all you want, and it wont change much. I know this because I actually played him over the span of the last few weeks. Hes a fun champ, just needs a little lovin.
