I think they honestly need to just reduce his Q cast time as he levels up until it reaches instant cast like old Darius. Also, would be cool if he had slightly worse pre-5 stack damage than he currently has, and compensated him by giving him a strong debuff to champs who have 5 stacks like a 20% damage reduction or by reducing their movement and attack speed by a similar percent. Basically make him strong in the wyas he should be, and keeping him weaker pre 5 stack. I don't, though, just a thought. Could also make it so enemies with 3 stacks or more take extra damage in proportion to their bonus movement speed or dash and in proportion to the number of stacks. For example, if vayne has 5 stacks and tumbles, she takes a burst of extra damage. Or having 5 stacks could ground people like cass's E does. Again, to buff him like this it might be good to need his Q base damage just a tad to make his harass weaker, but his all in more viable to punish those who don't properly kite and to actually out duel people once 5 stacks are reached.
