Passive is fairly remniscent of Kayles. 15% free shred at lvl 1 is a bit strong, but not sure how I would change it without just copy-pasting Kayle's passive.

Heal-tanks like Trundle, Warwick, Olaf, or Mundo wouldn't be too scared of him. The lack of execute means that Olaf or Mundo can flutter in the 10% hp zone and buffer with the Second Wind mastery.

He has no way to refund his energy. With such an oppressive cost on his Q, the only real threat that tanks or bruisers would have to worry about, he actually looks to duel tanks extremely poorly. There would be a good 10 seconds where he is eiher waiting for other cooldowns or waiting to regen enough energy to use his Q again.

And he actually isn't even that strong early. I can't really speak for other people, But I don't run any HP runes on my tanks. Before I by items, the Q would only have around 10 extra damage from bonus health. With a dorans item you're looking closer to 35, but nothing serious. All his other base damages are not terribly impressive; he really needs to get some items under his belt before he can seriously threaten anyone, tanks or otherwise.

His lack of strong or sustainable CC also means that most tanks, while not interested in 1v1-ing him in mid/late game, will be more than happy in teamfights to eat that 25% burst while they walk past him onto the more important backline.

In short, he would only be scary in lane against maybe a Shyvana or Renekton, and even then I would probably build a Blade of the Ruined King or Hydra against him before I actually go after tank items. Even with the passive, he doesn't seem to scale terribly well into mid or late game.

Sorry if that seemed a little harsh.
