He's definitely viable, if you play and build him right. He's got some counters, but he actually counters a lot of AD top lane champs. Mages will hurt him pretty bad. But against Akali (blind fucks up her combo), Trynd (blind), Nasus (blind + Move quick), you can do really well up in top lane. He's not a ranged AD, though. He does pretty poorly bot lane.

Try finding TheRainMan playing him in pro matches. He's done it a couple times recently, but I forget what the exact matches are. He tends to play AFKFarm Teemo. Go toplane, shroom and ward everythang, bring teleport. Farm toplane and push down turrets, but watch your minimap carefully, then move quick the fuck out when someone comes after you. If enough of their team comes to block off all your exits, well, then you're fucked. But it takes 3+ people to do that. Your team then should get turrets or dragon or...

A build that I like: Merc Treads, Wriggle's Lantern, Wit's End, Frozen Mallet, Atma's Impaler, Malady. It makes you decently tanky and you deal out a load of damage.
