A tiny shield that lasts 1.5 seconds with low base damage and tiny scaling is going to differ a lot from a silence. Especially against AD caster types. He literally has no defense vs AD Caster types. I dont understand how you're saying he can survive better in those types of lanes when they can just buy Merc's, Drinker, and a LS Scepter and literally ignore you or just kill you.

Option 1 Max Q: Does nothing.

Option 2 Max W: Have lots of mana to do nothing.

Option 3 Max E: Have no spells in lane.

Option 4 Pick Someone else: Win/Win situation.

Viktor's Q is better than this and that is saying alot.

I dont miss the silence at all. I've been saying it has been crap gameplay before the first batch of recent nerfs. It's replacement is a step in the right direction but it's so undertuned it's practically for looks.

E is restrained in 3 different ways. Spell counter, Cooldown and Mana. Is that really needed now? Considering its moderate utility and low end damage. It shouldnt have such restraints anymore, considering he needs it's effects now more than ever.

Q is just undertuned.

W's risk/reward is low as hell. The only extreme case he needs it is to Riftwalk on someone for 10 years to kill them.

R just needs an AP ratio tacked on and the mana costs less constrictive.
