Magic sucked. Simple as. Destruction magic was weak, expensive to cast, and didn't scale well. Other forms of magic also didn't scale well or were otherwise very situational.
Conjuration gave you access to a daedric bow with effectively unlimited daedric arrows whenever you wanted. Pretty significant when stealth archery is the natural meta in the game. Plus you can summon things to give you free damage and take aggro. That's useful for any build.
ice storm was pretty devastating, but yeah, a good chop with an axe normally trumped it
Dual-casting 2nd tier lightning could stun-lock Alduin!
