The only AD ratio he has is Q, while everything has OK AP scaling. Personally, I feel Gunblade is the best damage item to get on him, seeing as his hybrid scaling looks decent, and with no gap closer, he absolutely needs the Cutlass slow to really get anything done IMO.

Thing is rolling Gunblade leaves such a small manapool and he eats so much of it. :S

I really don't know. Apparently shushei runs 9 21 0, Triforce, Gunblade, BV. Hmmmm.....

I just got wrecked by Cassiopea as Swain. Too much range, too much spam, I couldn't cast anything without eating much more (and the fact that he had flat AP and boots) and I got outzoned, out farmed pretty hard and finished 0-2 after losing the tower. I don't feel like I could do anything.

its like AD vs AS. HP and armor/MR are needed in good quantities because each boosts the effectiveness of the other

Watching Rain Man's stream, apparently TSM is doing a gaming house and all moving in with each other.

I think Triforce would be #1 item on skarner since he has really high base AD and he's pretty much constantly spamming his spells in fights.

But also Ori is almost a permaban in ranked whereas Brand is rarely banned. So if you going to play her in ranked, forget it.

Triforce + Wits End makes you unstoppable 1v1 with Skarner.

I do Triforce -> WE (if I need mr) or Randuin (for armor) or Gunblade (for more damage) into the other 3 then Nashor's tooth or GA if it gets really late game.

Quick comparison:

Ryze Overload stats at levels 1/3/5/7/9, assuming he starts with Sapphire Crystal then gets boots and upgrades to Catalyst by level 7:

Range 675; Mana cost 70; CD 3.5; Damage 80/113/146/189/222; gives 2/4/6/8/10% CDR

Soraka Starcall stats at the same levels assuming 0 AP:

Hits all targets in range 660; Mana cost 35/40/45/50/55; CD 2.5; Damage 60/85/110/135/160; shreds 8/9/10/11/12 mres per cast

Now, you could argue that Overload sucks during the laning phase (and it kind of does), but Starcall's looking a little ridiculous atm.
