What makes Lee Sin dangerous

Lee Sin is one of the strongest early-game junglers: he ganks with a skillshot Q that lets him dash to you, and his ultimate kicks a target across the map into his team. His power is front-loaded — if he snowballs early ganks he takes over the map, but he falls off hard into the late game.
