He isn't very common in NA servers, as he has a bad reputation. Mainly because he is a big target by many high ELO players as an example who is overshadowed by other AP casters (example: see Elementz tier list, I think Locust and Grackis had him at bottom tier at one point as well).
I hear in EU servers he's a bit more popular, as he's considered there to be in the middle road. Here in NA though, while you won't get q dodged like you would with Rally/Revive Eve, there still is negative stigma to using him (kinda like Urgot).
I personally like him now with his longer range on his E and R (did you know at one point both were at 450 range?). Now if only if they did something about his Q's firing delay, so you can land those 'well placed silences' more consistently, and he'd be a top pick champ. But right now he's somewhere in the middle.
