Does Lee Sin REALLY need the slow on his E?

He has 2 spells that allow him to stick to you like white on rice and 345 base movement speed. Why does he need an AoE slow on top of all that? It just gives him another way to escape if he's a total dipshit and is completely out of position.

Because the spell would be shit otherwise? Magic damage ability that is maxed last on a champion that builds black cleaver

Magic damage is there to keep him strong early - it's like Jayce. Early game people will buy early armor, so this lets him bypass that a bit.

It doesn't scale well, but it does stay a decent nuke when used with Tiamat animation canceling.

It does 60 base damage, and doesn't get any extra points into it until lvl 14

The main use of the ability is for the slow

100% bonus AD ratio, and can be maxed second for burst (rank 1 W is plenty for sustain).

E is never maxed second

Well, it's maxed second 33% of the time?

And there is still the 100% bonus AD scaling.

I don't like his kit, but then simply flashing or using any mobility spell or slowing him would end his entire stickiness. The Q is as predictable as the person he's Qing.

Most melee champions need some method of sticking to their opponent otherwise they simply get kited when they move to initiate. Irelia stun/slow Nasus Wither Volibear slow Renekton stun
