A milion people using those 2 in the same build. To all players out there who doesen't know, flat armor penetration ( The Brutalizer) reduces effectiveness of % armor penetration ( Last Whisper), because flat is aplied before %.

Yep. I've never been a fan of Youmuu's+Last Whisper - it's just overkill and Last Whisper ends up becoming less efficient. Stick with one or the other.

Stick to the Brutalizer/Youmuu's always. Last Whisper is extremely situational and late game item. If situation calls for Last Whisper, then sell brutalizer/youmuu's.

I usually run either tons of flat ArPen (youmuus, SotD, cleaver...) or a last whisper. Going both just seems like such a waste, since that's all Last Whisper is really good for.

I used to run it, and I then realized the defects of building it for Ashe. Only needed if you are playing people with 250+ armor.

The Black Cleaver is armor reduction and it is aplied before flat penetration and % penetration. Also it works good if there are few DPS in your team.

The Brutalizer/Youmuu's are same, penetration. Stark's Fervor and Cleaver are reduction and they can go bellow 0, while penetration can penetrate only what is there. As I said reduction aplies before penetration. So, reduction and penetration are not smart to combine in most of the cases.
