Okay, first, seeing as all his abilities are point and click that can be used on anyone...

The passive is really feast or famine, since dying removes huge amounts of your AP, and getting ahead gives you huge amounts of AP to nuke anything.

Due to the interaction of Q + W, he could QW a minion and instantly get ~50 verbal power, with the amount increasing each time WHILE doubling his current stacks, which quickly leads to instant kill point and clicks. Basically, due to how those spells interact they make him start the game slightly behind and then have 400+ AP by 4 minutes.

His E is a targetted 3 second stun. For comparison, the longest ccs in the game are fears + taunts (max of 2.25), root (max 3), and Ashe's ult, which at max range has a stun of 3.5 seconds (or 4. point stands). Out of these, only the fear + taunt are point and click, and both of them are A) Non damaging spells, B) Have rather low range, and C) are on kits of lower damage and kill potential champions. Giving someone a point and click nuke and stun is pretty bad.

His E passive seems kinda unique, until you realize that due to his passive he can easily get several hundred ms for free before 10 minutes.

His R is really, really, brokenly strong, and really strange curve wise. Level 1 cooldown is 200 seconds, level 2 is 180 seconds (a 10% decrease), and then level 3 is 90 seconds (a 55% decrease). In addition, the mana cost is extremely high (the highest mana cost ability I know of below that is Veigar's ult), which is counteracted by the fact that you only use it once for the true sight, forever. Seeing as he has permanent true sight post 6, you make him literally hard counter wards, any form of trap, and any stealth champion. Then, due to his QW passive spam, his R is a almost zero cost reactivation that shreds armor and MR (so I guess if you're in a teamfight you can feel even better about making any form of defence building useless for them?).

Basically, his concept revolves around a broken mechanic, made broken further due to his kit.
