Ornn W update on his rework

So I'm a big fan of Ornn. Been playing him since his release in the jungle. I've been watching as they have been tweaking him in this preseason and I like a lot of the updates. My only problem right now as of December 10 is that it looks like his W is worthless to put points into after the first. The damage is going to be just based on his level and the cooldown is fixed. There literally isn't a single benefit to putting another level into the skill. No mana, cast time, or any other changes I can see. More worthless than even Tryndamere ult to upgrade. Riot should put some benefit to upgrading it.

The damage increases with level. It goes from 12% of the target's max HP at rank 1 up to 16% of their max HP at rank 5. The minimum damage and damage versus minions/monsters also increases with rank.

The Brittle bonus damage is what scales with level.

As pointed out by the other poster, the damage itself will still scale with rank. Though it being a one point skill was part of what the goal is for that change, so it can afford to not be his max first skill and allow either Q max or E max first.
