Dunno why people hate Nekros so much. Either they're trolls (true or not) or just haters. Either way, I don't love Nekros, but I like his gameplay.

It really just depends on how you look at his abilities. Defense, yup, he can be a real terror; kill a whole bunch of enemies and just cast ulti to match the incoming enemy army. Melee creeps destroying pod? Terrify. Need energy? Desecrate. Heavy creeps? Soul Punch for the Knockdown.

I also love using him for boss fights. Cast Shadows of the Dead and the boss will just focus the shadows, while you do major damage that will make the boss think twice for focusing fake creeps.

Soul Punch is used for crowd control and not as a nuke. Sure, it does nice damage (I don't know what nice damage is for other people), but the real thing that gets me is the knockdown. I love it.

Terrify is an awesome skill. I love the concept; although, I think it might be bugged at the moment (doesn't work on creeps that are close to you).

I use Desecrate strictly for finding resources that I really need or for energy/health orbs. You never know when this skill can come in handy.

Shadows of the Dead... already explained.
