The early slow duration on his passive is too strong, possibly his late game passive slow in general, and his w should give slightly more warning. That would make it less of a guessing game to avoid it, because if you happen to be in the middle of it when you see where it's landing, you're probably screwed. A shield strength reduction early game probably wouldn't be out of line. Later game it's fine because it's a very delayed shield, and he's so squishy that even when it is a very large shield, it won't help much if he's just outright killed by 2-3 people.

Aside from that, nothing feels too strong due to his damage being so avoidable. I mean, sure he can clean up fights, but that's every assassin, and his ult is justifiable in the damage, since he has really low damage otherwise, much too low to burst unless he's ahead.
