How to play it

Respect his poke
His Q poke is why regen runes and Doran's Shield do nothing: you can't out-sustain it.
Play for ganks
You have crazy kill pressure with a good damage jungler: set the lane up for ganks.
Roam or match
You can't win the lane, so roam a lot or match his roams instead.
Never feed him early: he's worthless midgame if he isn't fed, but deadly once he snowballs.
