I am pondering whether I should pick him off while he's on sale. He and Draven are the only 2 ad carries I dont own. I am sort of hesitating because I am not sure how effecient he is at utilizing his w, which I assumed to be the consistent source of his damage potential. I haven't played him at all outside of a few times when he was free, but now that I am looking at his cooldowns and thinking that they are kind of long. If his w needs to be proc'd with a skill to be most effecient, then maxing his e would be the safest way to ensure a 3 stack proc, since channeling his q for a long time is very unreliable. However he does have a 10 sec cd on his e at max rank. I know in a teamfight I can easily proc my w with ulti and q, but that is so much more work than playing a Vayne even though his early game is definitely stronger. Also with Malphite and Nunu played more, I am just not quite sure about having your only escape as a long cd slow and a 1+ sec snare.
