I think Hecarim's in a pretty good spot right now.

For a bruiser, I find he's rather balanced (If that's even a thing for bruisers) and I think he has a healthy amount of build diversity, he has health early game as well as clear times and can gank well enough with good positioning, he works pretty well with the enhanced smites, even though nobody gets anything other than Stalkers Blade and the occasional Trailblazer. I've never played him AP though, however I heard he got some nerfs which hampered his ability to be played AP. Any thoughts?
