that's not the main issue there's a lot of issues :

first he's a LOT ult reliant, without his ult he can't do much

he can surely spamm Q but his stun is close range, i mean 600 range is crap

ryze is viable with this because he's tanky and deals much more with his spamm

annie can because she stuns instantly with her spell and burst then gtfo

he needs a Q AFTER landing his E so the oponent will be even close then 600  range AND if he flashes to dodge the Q you're fucked, pretty much since it won't stun

his W is double edged, sure it gievs Mpen sure it makes higher range and is great in lane and in some teamfights, sadly if you root yourself in a teamfight it's just screaming come   kill me i'm not moving to the  other team

also you can dodge his ult easily with decent movespeed, needless to say champs like teemo or eve are just going to run around it and fuck you up

he's like fiddle, big damage in numbers, sadly can his combo is too slow and you'll get owned before it's ended
