are you kidding? swain is very strong.

while not really viable for competitive play aka tournaments, he can be played in ranked without a problem.

getting zhonyas and huge chunks of MR/HP will let him sit through most bursts without a sweat, and his damage scales really well into lategame.

a swain with bluebuff is one of the scariest things to behold.

also, once he gets ahead (like early gank etc), he is impossible to stop in lane.
