The only champ I find this item even remotely viable on is AP Varus.

AP Teemo/AP Kog/Dianna and many other AP or AP capable champs simply do not benefit from this, nor is Malady even useful on them. Go pure mage focusing on Abilities and your end game damage output will be significantly better.

The reason it is useable on Varus (Especially when coupled with Malady) is to apply stacks of his W for the additional %HP damage.

Seems to me like this would go very well with the AP Taric build. Boosts his AP and helps him get mana back faster from his passive.

But why would you build AP Taric?

Okay. So you're laning Taric. That still doesn't mean you want to play him AP. His damage output with AP is kinda' underwhelming, and it requires him to be balls deep on his enemy in order to use it. He makes a better bruiser.

Well, on AP/Autohit Kayle it's also viable to build, but then again:
Is that build overall viable?

This item are only on AP/AS good and mostly other items outdo it! So, it is probably good to buff it riot.

Hi! I'm currently writing a 'noob bait' guide, and I thought I'd give you a preview:

Nashor's Tooth 2735 gold
WHY IT SEEMS GOOD:
Damn. That's a lot of cooldown reduction, ap, and attack speed. Tack on a little mana regen, and you got a Frankenstein's monster of items.
WHY IT ACTUALLY SUCKS:
Not sure if there are any Mary Shelley fans out there, but the villagers weren't very fond of his corpse monster. This item isn't used in any viable builds. There aren't any viable builds for champions in the game that benefit really hard from ap AND attack speed, aside from karthus (kidding). It's expensive, and it doesn't give you much in return.
WHAT TO BUILD INSTEAD:
Hextech Gunblade or Wit's End or Morello's Evil Tome
BOW DOWNBOW DOWN

Well i started writing a long and detailed post, but then i realised i could just say "It's a nice item but noone needs it".
And then i realised i could just quote throatslasher.
So i guess we are pretty much done with this subject.

Conclusion: Noone uses Nashor's Tooth.

Many thanks to MissMaw, LaCorpse, Xiron, Arcana3 and Joxuu for making me sigs!

First of all, no one uses the item. AP / AS doesn't exist anymore.

Second of all, THE STATS SUCK.

Conclusion: The item sucks.
