He does, but only after you level his skills and use him in a certain way.
His ult sucks, unless you just have extra money/points don't even bother leveling it. At purple he gets an innate armor penetration. He has his own self haste which is nuts. It makes him fire 3 attacks in a row(near instantly) for 3 "rounds" of his attacks. So basically take the "gap" between his attacks, that stays the same as it would on any hero, but when he does attack it's 3 instead of 1. I try to couple him with a tank that can lower armor. Once that skill activates he can easily 1-2 round any but the strongest of tank heroes. Burns casters instantly.
I'm certainly no pro at this game but I am learning it's all about either a counter or just certain heroes. The reason some heroes suck ass is the way the core mechanics work, until fixed I'm not sure the "crappy" heroes will ever get better. For instance any back lane AGI without haste just attacks too slow, and without armor pen doesn't do enough dmg. Add in that getting hit stops(and possibly refreshes?) the attack animation anything with slow attacks gets raped without fighting back. This is why profes sucks in my opinion.
Goto a fight you know you can win and just pick a tank/healer and then him and watch. He spends half his time "casting" and not actually doing damage. This works for casters because their "cast" does dmg. His doesn't so it's a complete loss of a round. It's also why casters or heroes that hit multiple targets are so powerful, it interrupts the opponent.
I may be wrong on some of the facts above but I think they should remove dmg as an interrupt unless its a component of the ability itself.
PS. I got crazy lucky today, 2 new heroes on my crusade run! Neither super great but still cool.
