Bruiser-mage Swain? Yeah, I can see that. He's certainly got one hell of a teamfight presence if built right, but that's mostly due to his utility rather than his damage. Nevermove has an enormous area and in teamfights can be hard to avoid, and his single target assassination capabilities are pretty potent.

It's weird to think that Swain behaves like a cross between a Tank (from his CC effects and potent sustain) and an Assassin (From his single target DoT and potent ratios), but doesn't fit well into either role. Really curious as to how he's gonna evolve, he's definitely someone I've been meaning to try out.
