Hes terrible top unless fighting a squishy. Often his spells will barely damage the enemy, leaving them free to lifesteal it back or just chug a single potion. If you try and use quantity of spells to overcome this shortcoming, he runs out of energy. If you try to use your shadow to increase the damage output, you run out of energy and have no escape if you get ganked. If you try to use auto-attacks to increase your damage output, the enemy top laner who is more suited to close combat will beat your face in.

For example, once Darius gets ninja tabi and a dorans blade, he can zone you out permanently because your damage will take at least a full minute of throwing shurikens to get him low during which you can never enter melee range or get decapitated.
