Items that give AP and Protection:

Abyssal Scepter
Doran's Ring
Hextech Gunblade
Lich Bane
Rylai's Crystal Scepter
Trinity Force
Will of the Ancients
Zhonya's Hourglass


I would also suggest Magic Pen Marks, Armor/health Seals, AP/CDR/Mres Glyphs, and HP/Mpen Quints. Hope I helped. I'll rate after you fix your runes :)

I'll try it out, if it works I'll switch them out. Thanks!

I've also edited the runes (Thanks Elk Arkane)

If you're getting Rod of Ages just for the AP/Health, could i interest you in looking at Will of the Ancients?

It's not flat health, but it greatly increases your ability to sustain yourself, and gives just as much AP for a 900g lower price tag.

Thanks for the reply, the rod of ages like said before is used for the health and ability power side of things, and also I've stated the order in which you purchase the items depends on how your lane or team is doing.

wow... there are many things wrong with this guide :S
first of all: whats with the runes? why use so many different runes? Its like a total mess, why do you get so many different? they won't help you at all that way :S
also, why do you use strength of spirit with morde? you have no mana at all, you will get nothing. speaking of mana... rod of ages? you waste a lot of money with it, especially since your getting it THAT late.
-1, sorry bro, just not very thought-out guide
