And of course he's probably gonna be hitting you with basically free harass from his rockets at least once a wave no matter what you do... he'll heal up while chipping down your health pretty quickly, and if you go after him at all, try to push back, or try and stick around after he rockets you a couple of times then you will be easy to gank.

Yep, his kit is pretty OP in lane... That's part of the reason Riot felt he needed a rework and smashed him with the nerf bat originally. Even with the turret, ratio, and range nerfs his kit is still really strong in lane. Right now that's pretty much all that is keeping him playable.
