Twisted fate needs a buff

Hello everyone, I would like to express my feelings on the nerfs that have been done on twisted fate. I like his play style and he is actually my main. Lately, as I have been playing more of him, I have noticed his weaknesses and haven't been able to figure out what his strengths are. Yes, I know he has a very long range teleport, but while in mid lane, you must run one direction or the other to teleport to either top of bottom lane. This is not necessarily a problem, however, your competitor could easily tell where you will be teleporting and alert either lane immediately, thus losing you a kill. The reason I bring this up is that Twisted Fate is almost impossible to win with against just about any other midlaner in a 1v1. So, if you can't get bottom or top lane kills, you will be left behind and just be a burden on your team. I suggest either his ult is reworked and made global again or that he scales better off of magic damage. No one that I have talked with thinks that an AD TF is viable. I do agree very strongly with this because his E and Q scale with magic damage but that leaves your W weaker since it is a hybrid type attack; scaling with 100% AD but a lesser amount of magic damage. I of course have many more thoughts about what could be changed on him, however I would like to hear others opinions.

I agree with both of you, however his Q to me is so hard to land because it is a slow moving projectile and it only takes 1 step to the side to dodge it.

honestly i think hes one of the most balanced champs in the game. its other champs that need a nerf(ori,syndra,FUCKING FIZZ) f they do this tf might be seen a lot in mid again.

TF's big advantage is his long range poke. I tend to build an early lich bane and twin shadows to up his move speed, allowing him to maneuver around the skillshot heavy mid lane. The key is poke poke poke poke until you can engage. Use your pick a card to bluff (just keep it up and rotating for almost the whole rotation before deciding your card). If you can force your opponent out of lane, do a wave clear, Back up a bit to lose vision, then start going down river to either top or bottom until you're in ult range. Try to ult in behind them, and before you teleport, make sure you grab the card you'll want (most likely gold, but maybe red in the bot lane or a countergank if their flash is down).

Well i say increase his Q Ap scaling to 75% or make it 70% with a slow so that he can use it to get in close and use his other ability's. Then make his stacked deck a 60% ap scaling and 40% AS scaling. this would makke Tf better in both miid and for the odd balls that like to take him AD would llike it to.

if u bbuff tf in any way, he would be broken. there is no way to make him balanced but give him a buff at the same time. idk i havent done the correct math atm.
