Honestly, I have 2 TF builds, one does magic damage the other physical.

SotD goes into either as I feel that item was made for TF. Syncing perfectly with his E and able to gain additional ArPen on demand plus becoming undodgeable means your target is taking damage no matter what they do.

I typically run Exhaust/Flash on him and have been quite successful.

honestly, i have only EVER seen 1 sivir that didnt feed, and i remember it kus it was ap/tank sivir with some fucked up item build involving warmogs, aegis, chalice, zhoniyas and rylais. Basically made me o.O but i rolled with it since she was 3-1-15 and had 500 some cs in like 40 mins

AP Sivir is honest to god the funniest character in the game, lol. She needed more CDR though.


I definitely agree there. I used to love AP Sivir so much, but what stopped me from playing her was the constant bickering from my teammates. "OH MY GOD, AP SIVIR? Thanks for the loss."

I always wanted to play AP Sivir with some amazing cleaner upper ganker guy because I got so many squishes to 100 hp while they're just chilling by their tower.


Send Heimer in to rocket them to death. Gotten so many kills with those things

zerker greaves are fine if u do a good job of staying on the fringes of fights and avoiding getting focused, but when u only have zekers and dorans ring @ 25 minutes, it makes me rage

Zerker Greaves are the most underrated item in the game, imo. every joe-theorycrafter out there shits on them like it's his job, but the fact remains that they're really cheap and highly efficient at what they do.


bleh, i just think that mercs/tabi (and in some cases sorc shoes and mybe mobilities in rare cases) are simply too good to pass up just for some extra atkspeed. If it gave some dmg, or some passive, on the other hand, i would be more willing to look into them

edit: i would get them for sure if the enemy team had no cc/ap dmg/ad dmg

dodge is really rare, mpen is rare and costy, speed is rare and costy, cc reduction is unique...

aspd is the most common stat =S

haha qft, i think i saw araragi livestream an ap sivir game, quite amusing. It was the aegis/warmogs AND ap items that weirded me out, ive never heard of warmogs on her and usually aegis is for aurabitch sivirs, but somehow it ended up working ok (or the ppl we were playing against were bad enough for it to work lol)

rofl, I used to get warmogs on sivir. she maxes the stacks on it in like, 5 minutes, it's crazy, lol. Sucks that it's really not that good because you're better off getting Armor/MRes, especially since you typically already have a Bloodthirster or two to keep your health up anyway.

But yea, geezus, this talk is making me wanna play AP Sivir again, definitely doing it on my smurf some time soon, lol.

I think my build was something like:
Doran's Ring
Boots
Mejai's
Sorc Shoes
Rylai's
Z-Ring
Void Staff

So funny pinging someone sitting near their tower for like 1200 with a boomerang, hahahahaha.

well, right I get that the other stats are rarer and shit, I just think that rarity is overrated, lol. with zerker greaves, you pay 150 for +20 Move Speed and +10% Attack Speed. Boring, sure, but it's also really efficient if your goal is just outputting damage with attacks, they can't be beat.

When you're defending 'zerks as a non-situational buy, you're playing too much Kayle.

I see Zerk on TF/Ashe/Sivir a lot. Generally the DPS carries, particularly if they're carrying Cleanse.

i feel like the reason i neglect them so often is that i play at the level where everyone knows to focus squishies, but are not good enough at positioning such that the ranged dps is sufficiently protected in teamfights

edit: which is why i do sometimes get them on heroes like ezreal and kayle, i am comfortable enough with ezreal that i can always be able to properly position myself just about anywhere, since i run ghost/flash and kayle is kayle, end of story.

I get berserker greaves on tristana(berserker and last whisper my only as items I get on trist normally)... I just feel merc treads and ninja tabi aren't worth it... if i get stunned Im either dead or we have a numbers advantage and they can't reach me. I stay way in the back and W farther back as soon as someone gets close(I play pretty cautious the entire game tbh)... I just shoot at the squishiest target that i can get to without being too vulnerable.

Then again I get Merc Treads or Sorc boots on every other char I play.. I probably should get ninja tabi sometimes, but i love merc treads

i dont get tabi so much either, but its mostly because i rarely encounter teams that dont have more magic dmg than physical. Also, of all ranged dps ppl to get zerkers, trist would be the last on my list simply due to her q giving so much atkspeed already, with mercs/tabi + banshees ur pretty much set against most teams in terms of survivability

the thing is, with squishies at this level, no one gives a fuck if you're stunned for 1 second or 1.75 seconds from tibbers, you're still fucking dead unless it's 0 seconds + escape mechanism because of cleanse. I dunno, I mean, at least that's my feeling on why ranged carries should be getting zerker over mercs a lot of the time.

then again it could be all the kayle I'm playing now, lol.

err get something else on trist. her q give you a boatload of aspd. you will do so much more damage if you get IE or cleaver on her before getting a recurve bow item(starks or LW).

i understood it just had to point out how redundant q+greaves were. Tbh, tho, you dont seem to have the problem of being the main target of cc, so tbh there's not much else to get for dps ppl other than zerkers if ur not getting pew pew'd. Its just that i get pew pew'd alot, so it makes sense for me. Hmmm i seem to get hit by alot of things irl too (i.e. i was that kid who always got hit in the head/balls with the soccer ball etc.), mybe its a genetics thing....

you made it sound like the first items you get are zerkers and LW.

whether or not you go over max isnt the issue. having alot of aspd and little damage is much worse than a moderate amount of dmg and aspd. so since you are getting so much aspd from q, its much more efficient to get dmg. its like when people said get armor/MR on cho since his feast already gets him hp.

IMO

d blade
boots
phage
zerker's
IE

sounds perfectly balanced for outputting a ton of damage as trist.

working on that

somehow, i always have this irresistible urge to
A) chase ppl endlessly
and
B) get really close to them when im killing them

for some reason its really hard to suppress, and is the major reason why i favor mercs/tabi over most anything else
