Personally I think this poor bastard should be higher up on Riot's priority list for a full Sion/Poppy-tier VGU.

His kit is so outdated and doesn't fit his theme, and the only synergy in his kit is his Q/W and Ult/Q. He has no clear identity either, which Riot themselves have stated. His meta role is as a jungler, but he's really weak in the jungle now because of the pre-season changes, as well as the changes made to the jungle since then. I see him taken as a support or midlaner occasionally, but he's totally outclassed in those areas too.

But part of it is also excitement at what Riot could potentially turn him into, really nail the whole "evil scarecrow mage" idea.
