It wasn't really unjustified nor outrageous, it's a crit every third attack for a champion that does better stacking attack speed rather than AD, and if you do want to build some AD, you're sacrificing tank stats for a champion who's super squishy
He didn't really change much from before, sucks in team fights but is a excellent splitpusher/duelist, he's not really ban worthy when junglers like rek'sai/elise/kindred can deny him so much early, and he only has some good top lane match ups against ranged champions
