Hello! Thank you in advance for opening this guide. This is my first guide, and I decided to write it on a champion I have recently fallen in love with. Well, that sounded worse than I thought it would...

Please keep in mind that any comments or suggestions would be highly appreciated, and I will consider any ideas for tweaks or changes to be very nice.

I choose to take Greater Mark of Desolation as I feel it gives me more mid/late on in mid game oomph, and a bit more damage on champions in lane. I take Greater Seal of Armor to counter a bit of the damage from the main damage source in the lane, the ranged dps. Some people may say to take Greater Glyph of Replenishment as opposed to my choice of Greater Glyph of Scaling Mana Regeneration but I think the extra mana regen mid game is more nessecary.

As far as masteries go I take the most offensive masteries I can, then go down utility for neutral buff duration and movement speed. I suppose you could take a mix of ap and ad masteries for some more early game damage, if you think it is nessecary. I elect to take decreased death time as opposed to mana, because I usually have enough mana without it in lane, unless I am with like a Taric, in which case I have to arcane shift to get a clear shot when he stuns them through a minion wave.

Not even close to done, check in later for more information.
