alright, so let's say we don't raise W or E except for 1 lvl early game

W = 70 dmg

E = 110 dmg (DoT)

AA = unless you get dorans, which i don't, by lvl 4~6 you only have 60ish dmg

okay, so your Q should be 3 at this point, so you can get what, 1.6ish AS? maybe 1.8ish if you have serks

you can hit a pretty decent number of times, but i'm sure they have some form of armor in masteries and/or runes

okay, pretty good, and W has a slow, and E is burning them, and you might even have your ult, all very nice

however, with your W at lvl 3, E at lvl 2, that alone is 300 damage burst, right now, it's not even 200

with your slow, you can deal damage from your AA for a similar amount, as your Q will not make a huge different without a PD which gives you a pretty big chunk of your AS, and you will deal just a bit less damage

also, your AA range is not great at this point, so you will have to chase if you want to get them, making your Q more and more useless over time

all in all, Q is not unviable early game at all, however, W/E is a sure hit, however, Q is very unreliable with that poor range and the ability of your enemy champ to escape, which should be decent with summoner spells, getting too close to tower for you to secure the kill, unless you're in a lucky situation
