❯❯ Pros

✅ Scales extremely well — becomes a late-game monster with 2-3 crit items.
✅ Crit-based build fits the traditional ADC role (Infinity Edge, Shieldbow, etc.).
✅ High mobility with E (Soul Unbound) for outplays, repositioning, or safe trading.
✅ Mixed damage (physical + magic) makes him harder to itemize against.
✅ Strong 1v1 and skirmish potential — punishes oversteps hard.
✅ AoE CC ultimate can shift the momentum in teamfights.
✅ Allows a control mage midlane — avoids full AD team comps.
✅ Avoids double-ADC drafts — brings DPS without needing another squishy marksman.

❯❯ Cons

❌ Weak laning phase — melee champion vs ranged ADCs is risky early on.
❌ No sustain early — vulnerable without lifesteal or early item spikes.
❌ Very item-dependent — needs 2+ items to truly shine.
❌ Ultimate is skill-shot based — easy to miss or whiff under pressure.
❌ Limited synergy with passive enchanter supports (e.g. Janna, Soraka).
❌ Requires strong mechanics — positioning, timing, and spacing are critical.
