Don't even mention the obvious counters. One does not need to be perfect with no counters whatsoever in order to be OP. You really think that champions get nerfed because there was absolutely no way to counter it before?

Look at it in the purest AP scaling sense. First skill does 0.9 per AP in total, E does 0.8+, and W does 0.6 despite being AOE and a powerful escape. That skill alone puts Gragas or Ezreal to shame. And Mimic just happens to bump these up to 1.35+ (Q), 1.25+ (E), and 0.9+ (W) per AP on top of the first shot. The only other hero with this kind of perfect-all-around AP scaling is Malzahar, but his skills need aiming and combining correctly, not to forget the fact that he has no escapes at all.
