He is not bad at all, just a little hard to play. His combos may vary from a very successful and killer to a complete fail. His CDs are pretty high and little mana-hungry, so he's not a skill spammer like Sona. You have to time right your skills; if you do so, it will be a very profitable lane.

Not to mention his TF influence: the ability of throwing away the opponents main tank or bringing in their carry can be game changing.
