Well, there is SOME truth to what the original poster said. I mean, he IS really easy to play, that much is true. The hardest part about him is knowing when to use Cannonfire Barrage, which requires some degree of map awareness.

He can seem a little on the strong side, though: the problem that I've consistently seen with him is his ability to harass very well in top lane while also farming very well. This tends to snowball into a very powerful lategame. These traits, though, are just marks of a good solotop champion. I mean Yorick, whom I play, Wukong, Volibear, Garen, and others all are very good at harass and farm.
