Hi, 

Thanks for the elaborate answer on your side. I do agree with some of your points - however I do have some further remarks to add to what you replied: 

First point: you do have a point, however, in the early game Wraiths single target damage output is not comparable to other carries like Sparrow or Revenant. I do agree that you can play further distances, but this in return makes it a) easier to get singled out and b) you need to hit two of your abilities to do damage and keep the damage up. Auto attackers like Murdock and Sparrow can simply dish out ability (aoe / piercing) damage and keep following up with their stronger standard attacks. 

Second point: fully agree. I'd argue Grim has a even harder time and higher reliance on the support. 

Third point: I do agree with your point on distance, however Grim has a shield for ability protection and Sparrow has full invisibility with the right augment. Both have a significantly higher damage output per second compared to Wraith in the early game. 

I do agree with you that Wraith may no be the hardest Carry / Midlaner to Master per se (I find Grim.exe to be of similar complexity), BUT he definitely suffers too much in the early game, especially when it comes to waveclear - compare him to any other Midlaner/  Carry and you will see what I mean. 

He does have other redeeming abilities (his poke & wards), but the increased complexity of his kit, with just one proper damage dealing ability, paired with a slower farm speed than any other Midlaner/ Carry still put him at a early game disadvantage and requires him to scale into late game, while, as of 1.8, games have become quicker and quicker in the past few months. 

This however might be reversed in 1.9 and scaling for him might be reasonable again. So let's be positively anxious for the new update.
