I think that dodging his e is dodging his damage is not something a lot of people understand - that it applies his passive, and therefore AS nuke. Most encounters turn to shit if it misses. In terms of everything: sticking, mobility, damage, cc. Which is why it would make more sense for the point upgrades to increase the duration of the passive effect, instead of the damage on the ability considering that's most of the power you get from the ability. The damage numbers are just courtesy points - something that I wish the shield had now. Those flat 10 per level just for some incentive to get those points early.

It's really weird how all the juggernauts have the commonality of scaling well per level, but none of the ablities scaling well per rank: blood rage strength - judgement getting more ticks, and skarner's passive, and all of their abilities scaling with total AD. It almost doesn't matter where you put your points, no more thought, just level up and put them somewhere.
