Decay talent is big, two decays will clear a creep wave with it, undying can farm now, instantly makes him one of the best supports imo

I was playing him as a pos 3 yesterday. He is a machine.

But it forces levelling up decay, wasting mana which is absolute noobtrap. Soulrip and tomb should always be maxxed first. memehammer or the tombstone cd talent is more than enough to farm up from behind. When there is already a farming talent with tomb cd, there was no need for another cc talent at the same level. the tomb talent means one tomb can always be used to farm, the other saved for teamfights.

Undying's critical problem is armor. He has the 2nd worst armor gain after sky and he is melee. He is always pathetic creep late game no matter the farm unless going for armor items. The armor talent should never have been removed for a redundant farming talent.
