After trying many different builds, I found one stupid build that only builds "I'm actually not dead" items after Triforce and I'm having so much fun with this one.

I go Tri -> Resist Boots -> DD -> GA -> Steraks ( -> Eternal Hunger if you get to it)

This is incredibly frustrating for opponents: DD makes burst seem like it doesn't work (even though it does), then at 3 items they see your GA icon and don't want to kill you anymore, and at 4 items even when they try your DD burn instead gets consumed by the Lifeline shield.

Coachless WPA seems to suggest this is a good build too so I'm not pulling it out of my ass.

Sidenote - one other relatively unknown interaction is that Red Smite triggers Cheap Shot, so you can take Ult Hunter without "wasting" a secondary rune instead of having to go the garbage Hexplate item. Really enjoying PTA + Ult Hunter.

Thanks Riot, you outdid yourself with this one. Clearing and fighting feels like ass now. Especially first clear is agonizing, and if I don't rush Kraken or some other AS item the clear speed is turbo garbage.

I just have no idea what to build anymore. Attack speed doesn't scale anymore, but her Q passive incentivices attack speed to get more applications off. Kraken/Botrk/other attack speed items got nerfed by the AS scaling. Dusk & Dawn used to have great synergy with Q, until they entirely removed AP scaling off the Q passive. Triforce, in theory, should be a good rush item after the baseAD buff, but in practice feels unsatisfying because baseAD sheen procs don't do much on early levels. That kinda leaves Hexplate, an item where the power is concentrated in spam-ganking? Is AD forced to build that every game?
