he is a great tanky initiator and slowlocker, initiate with shurelias + w and maybe even ghost and grab a target, scream "GET OVER HERE" and see your victim being slaughtered by your team. after that your task is it to keep the enemy squishies or not-so-squishies slowed and under pressure. With trinity or just sheen his sustained damage is big against weaker enemies. besides that, just build him trinity tank like maybe nasus. Shurelias is great for initiating/chasing. And I also really like wit's end on him, because it works well with his innate while granting 30 -> 50 magic resist.

Also, if it's not you who initiates run down the first best softer target and drag it out of position to get it killed.
