But now what? What do I do if I want to learn to actually build champ?

Usually the items (and order) are described in the guide. You need to understand the basic principles of building for AD or AP or Tank or Support. You have to experiment with different items, figuring out over time what helps your champion best.
Personal habitual activites? Utilizing gargantuan idioms to fabricate intelligence.

Certain items are good on each champ.

Use these items to beat your opponent.

Use a fresh build every game, starting from item one. It doesn't always change, but it shouldn't always be the same.

Always keep in mind what the other team is doing. You got a Yi running around raping you? Maybe it's time to build a Thornnmail/Hourglass you know that sort of thing.

Read guides.
Watch streams.
Play games.
Learn all the items and all the champs.

Learning to build situationally comes with knowledge and experience.
Thanks to Nyoike for the sig!
