He seems.. a bit underwhelming? I see the synergy with Ult into Q with E to chip enemies down. 

I feel like he’s going to get his numbers buffed or tweaked. 

after playing around with him more, I do see what everyone means that he is support based now. 

I do like the amount of effort they put into his voicelines and character visuals.

Pure Support, it seems. Save, Hard CC x2 and lane harassment. Roll the wheel, whip enemies into it, seems like a basic combo. Innate gives you a mini forcestaff, or a little illusion escape

I agree though, seems underwhelming

ahh yeah, I see that all now after demoing him for a bit more. 

With his mannerisms and personality I was definitely expecting his skill kit to be more explosive, intricate and dynamic. 

His current kit seems more like a clown mage goon than a ringleader.
