I like to give them the benefit of the doubt and say that whenver they added something that was part of the old kit, it tipped scales or just didn't work in a way that was conducive to playing by either over or underloading his kit. not saying his kit right now is perfect, just saying it's rather functional.

Given his appaulting rate of play, I imagine riot wanted to make sure that he had complete viability, even if it mean working most of skills to the ground up. They fixed his problems anyhow and made him commit to role because the hybrid thing wasn't working. He's defeintally a tank now, he can pull his taunt much more smoothly and he can get into fights. He lost alot of his 'magical magey' size. Which is fine i think. Techmaticly, he's anti-magic. You don't beat mages by hanging back and trading fireballs with them.
