Introduction

Hello guys, Im QuadraDowN and this is build for . I Thinked very much how to make this build for this um flying bird :D and i say to myself "Lets make it" and i started the build. I think everyday what new to add in this build and how to make it better for understanding. I would appreciate any and all feedback that you guys may provide.

Spells/Runes/Masteries

Ability Sequence
1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8	9	10	11	12	13	14	15	16	17	18

We first need to up because this spell is like ignite and allows you to do 8 / 11 / 14 / 17 / 20% increased DMG from Swain's attacks for 4 seconds. Next we need for more additional effect when fight or run. The last spell that we up is we don't need this spell this much in early game so we up it only 1 time and then upping after 14 level. The ult is upped on 6,11,16 level.

Runes

Precision

Fleet Footwork

Phase Rush

We need to get and for early game so they will harass you harder when have more MGR and Armor. Next we need greater mark of hybrid penetration you will be able to poke them more and more when getting trough their Armor and MGR. Quint we need so we will not left the bird with no AP in the start, right?

Pros and Cons

Pros

+ Incredible sustain in lane after level 6
+ A lot of damage over time
+ Can take quite a beating in a fight and still come out on top
+ Practically untouchable without Ignite, Executioner's Calling or certain abilities
+ He's a giant demon bird
+ Good CC

Cons

- If you can't last hit, you can't harass. Dem manacosts.
- A lot of damage over time
- His CC is kind of hard to hit if your opponent knows how to dodge stuff
- Countered HARD by healing reduction
- Kind of requires blue-buff for maximum fighting ability

Farming

As is a little bit harder to farm so thats why we put some AD in the masteries. You need to watch the minions HP. When they are bellow 100 HP you may attack them but be careful because in the start don't have much AD so need to keep higher attention for the HP on and because the melee have more armor and higher HP than the caster.
