All those top mages get royally screwed by Maokai because he can just dash onto them and get them killed in any gank with almost no effort. Plus no one is stopping you from buying MR just after Catalyst and simply invalidating any poke with your own plus your healing.

Post six, Maokai can actually jump on many champions with ult, hit them a bit, retreat to a bush and just win trades because he is so tanky and he heals for a ton.
