Pretty much all of his advantages save for his durability are highly difficult to manage to actually use well in a 5v5 fight where both teams are decently positioned and composed in champion cohesion. His use in a late-game teamfight is exceptionally reliable on having a completely full build if he's not fed where he'll feel very lacking in some area without it and that is pretty difficult to manage happen at all. Even when you manage to use all of your advantages, you'll still be clearly behind the farmed ranged carries in effectiveness (hence why you won't get a full build since the team should be banking on that champion instead).
