You can play him there, but with the nerfs to his W, attack animation and general meta changes he just isn't the powerhouse he was. I play him as support almost every time I have to, and generally win the game after a rough laning phase. His peel for carries is godlike, and he can survive for ages on the frontline. If the game gets to the point you have 40% cdr and reasonable amounts of mana you just win through constant aoe heals and being an invincible wall for the backline.
