I prefer not to suggest anything on other people's concepts - I don't want to jack anything. Was just stating my opinion.
His DPS is lower than Illidan's, which if I'm not mistaken is [60 (+14)] because of his Sweeping Strike Auto-Attack buff. Illidan also has constant ways to keep up with his target, making his DPS reliable unlike Itherael's.
That said, Illidan doesn't have ability damage burst. Nevertheless, it seems a bit of a waste to have such high DPS on a Hero who can't utilize it without his Heroic. Similar to Kharazim, who has higher DPS than Itherael with the
For Archangel's Power - I think you underestimate how powerful pick potential is. If you can use that mega-buff to instantly make the fight a 4v5, especially if you pick off a key opponent such as their Support, it doesn't matter that Itherael doesn't do much in teamfights outside that Heroic. He still made the fight 4v5 and is another body in the fight.
I don't want to downplay vision too much because it is definitely important and useful, but I'd rather have a Tyrande on my team than an Itherael that took Eyes of Fate - at least, that's the impression I get from the concept.
But like I said before I don't like suggesting things on other people's concepts - just like to give my first impressions.
I added two CC active talent: Future Freeze at lvl 7 and Back in Time at lvl 16

Hmm...
IMO, It looks too much like the assassin version of Monk plus Tassadar. Very similar to Kharazim's Q + E combo, you can Q + W on Itherael.
His Passive is almost Tassadar's E, and his E is almost Tassadar's passive. It also seems a bit strange to put a fairly weak ability like this on an Assassin when most any support can pick up
Another thing, Archangel's Power seems over the top. Not only does it out-perform the other Heroic, it's a ton of tooltip information, I can't imagine trying to read that in-game for the first time trying to grasp that paragraph of conditions.
This concept also has the same problem that Damage-Build Monk has - no CC or even soft CC. Even the soft CC in his talents are minimal, which means his reliance on doing damage is entirely based on Archangel's Power - further reducing his other Heroic's appeal.
With high-CD chase tools and no way to keep up with his opponents (Outside of a 20s Cooldown 7% speed buff and a 10% slow with the level 1 talent), he has to rely on burst, which automatically makes some talents such as Vampiric Assault unappealing.
Just my 2 cents. It's kinda cool to have an Assassin who is half Support, rather than a Support who is half Assassin, but I think sheer vision isn't enough to warrant picking him over any other Support who has more utility, and sheer burst, reliant on his Heroic CD, isn't enough to warrant picking him over, say, Zeratul.
If you have any ideas of how to make him better I'd love to hear :D
But remember that he has a really high DPS (60+12, most damage dealers has ~40-50). That with the fact that he has no CC or chase make him weaker alone but stronger with other heroes like Diablo that can make sure that you can attack your enemy, than you can use your W either to do a finishing blow or just to make sure that the fact that you are a melee hero doesn't hurt you. He is also good in team fights because there's less escape in team fights because you need to be there for your team.
And the heroic Archangel's Power is only good for 1v1s because it makes you stronger against one hero and not attacking him/her is just wasting your ult and even weakening you because you can't use your W on any other hero.
His second ult, Eyes of Fate, is better for maps like Black Heart's Bay where you need to know where are the enemy team at any time to make sure they're not taking boss or paying, and if your team is team fight focused, than, as I said before, the first heroic is useless.
And again, if you have any ideas I'd love to hear.
