**** off Temzilla, you beat me to it. >:(
Anyways, Madred's is way better than Wit's. But alas, due to it being so much better, it's also much more expensive. If you have to go for
Wit's End or
Madred's Bloodrazor, I'd go for
Wit's End because I assume you're playing a bruiser, and Madred's delays your tanky items much more than Wit's does. When you're full build, you could sell Wit's and get Madred's, or if you're someone like
Warwick who just naturally synergizes extremely well with Madred's it can be viable to take it earlier. But I think
Warwick's probably the only champion who would take both Wit's and Madred's viably.

wit's. cheaper and better.
Thank you jhoijhoi, Keondre, LaCorpse, The_Nameless_Bard, Arcana3, Apfeljack, Hogopogo, eddie199, Xiaowiriamu, and JEFFY40HANDS for the spectacular sigs!

Unless you're playing vs a Mundo with 5 warmog and boots +3 speed, wits end is better
+rep me and you'll get good karma, wich means you won't be reincarnated into a rock! Isn't that awesome?

But yes this idea has been discussed more than Pam Anderson's tits in a plastic surgeons office.
I love how people totally misinterpret why madred's is a worse item than wits end, i'm afraid we're gonna have to use MATH!
"I'm gonna make the assumption that AD=Magicdamage and Magicdamage=AD for the sake of easier equations(although this isn't true and AD most of the time is "better" than magic damage)
Same amount of AS like wits end so that's the same.
Against a 2000 hp enemy champion madreds does 120 damage. that's 3 times the damage a wits end does. we're missing out on between 5-25 resist. I'm gonna make the equation of armour/value from a cloth armor the least cost effective armor item in the game. so each resist point is worth 16,5 gold
This means around 83,33333333-416,6666667 worth of resist stats.
So to outline it comparing madreds to one of the considered most cost effective items in the game.
It costs double the price.
3870
It does 3 times as much damage(worst case scenario).
Wits end=2000, 2000*3=6000
It lacks 400 gold of resist.
6000-400=5600
It gives immensely fast barons.
U can't put a price on this."
So from a mathematic perspective Madred's is soo much better than wits, and that's even before the wit's end nerf(i copied it from my old irelia guide). The reason wit's end is a better item. Is because all the champs that build wits, build it for the Attackspeed. And the attackspeed is the same on madred's bloodrazor and wits, thus making it more effective for mid game *Insert whatever champ that scales well with AS here*
TL;DR: Madred's isn't bad, it's for 5th or 6th item where wits is for 2nd or 3rd item.
(except for on shaco, on shaco madred's is infinitely better, always)
