He has a 55% win rate because when he gets picked it's a good pick (and not against Zed Talon Akali etc)

Ye its weird

It's why I think he needs a rework. He is incredibly strong, but only a handful of people play him. They can't buff him because it will make him stupidly powerful, but he isn't easy enough for anyone in lower elo to want to invest unless already in love with his theme. The only way to make him stable across high and low elo, and pro play too maybe would be a rework.

He's just recently been released, you can't rework something that isn't broken. People just don't really know how to deal with him since he's so rarely played. Same happens with Skarner, Rek'Sai, etc.

Riot planned a rework for him literally within a year of his release but scrapped it because they didn't know what to do. His entire kit is too closely tied together, remove one part and it all falls apart.

He doesn't need a rework. The runes is what got him that high. Glacial augment, Approach Velocity, and Clarity are very strong on him.

I like Glacial Augment on him but it isn't even close to being his strongest rune. The only thing I have found to prove it's worth on him is that one of the best Sol players in Korea uses it only, but outside of that Phase Rush is better because you want to move faster always. Slows only slow one person, but move speed makes you faster than them all.

item 3030 this can hit a wide aoe area plus it actives that ice beam

I don't disagree, but win rates of a very low pick rate must be for a reason. It seems that Phase Rush is seen as better by the majority of Sol players, all four of them.

if they want to lower the win rate they would have to shift his early game power to late game his insane roaming carries early and mid with a lot of dps in late game, if the move the power over, or force him to max e second to be able to roam it will lower it
