I would personally say, like on
Talon, nothing of both. AD is OP,
Bloodthirster is way better than
Trinity Force could ever be.




Well, then ask yourself: Do I want
Trinity Force if I want to be more tanky, while other items give way more damage than
Trinity Force?
So, the only item for this situation would be
Frozen Mallet. And I think I would still prefer the combination of other items like the new
Black Cleaver(HP+armor shredd+AD+CDR),
Mercurial Scimitar(MR+AD+
Quicksilver Sash),
Guardian Angel(Armor+MR+Revive).
In that build, there would be still enough room for AD in form of
Bloodthirster.

Like Nick said, neither of your choices are optimal. FroMal doesn't give enough AD to be worth it and the slow isn't very useful because you should be 100->0 most people. Not chasing.
Trinity isn't optimal because you're losing out on a lot of the procs from it as well as completely ignoring the mana/AP from Sheen.
A stronger route is going
Hexdrinker/
Maw of Malmortius for early game damage. Then, try to rush
Bloodthirster as soon as you can.
Mercurial Scimitar is a great, new S3 itemization choice and the new form of
Black Cleaver might be a nice choice if you plan on poking before you burst, but it's still not 100% optimal.
Guardian Angel is a nice item overall but, because your spells are on too long of a cooldown to be useful after a revive, you might just want to focus on more damage over survivability.
Because you're usually mid, there's not a lot you need in terms of armor, but a
Chain Vest should solve most of your armor issues for a while. You can sell it later if you really feel the need.

When choosing items you should always know where you position in a fight, if you are close you will need some sustain. You don't worth too much if you get instagibbed.
No pure AD is not OP at all. Sacrificing sustain for AD means anyone good enough to trick you just enough to survive your burst will kill you for sure. If not 1v1 being melee without any form of defense means you will easily get killed from just the aoe going around in the fight. Especially if you look at season 3 stuff like
Ravenous Hydra,
Runaan's Hurricane,
Iceborn Gauntlet... You can only allow yourself to be squishy if you are ranged. It's so damn basic in pretty much any game.

Feel free to +rep me if i helped any way!
Hey thank you. So I thought about s3 items and I would go for early
The Brutalizer, then rush
Bloodthirster, get an
Guardian Angel,
Blade of the Ruined King,
Maw of Malmortius and
Last Whisper, maybe change
Maw of Malmortius through
Mercurial Scimitar

I dont know what is better? and if I take TF should I take it late or early?. I tried both. On the one hand I think Frozen Mallet is better because that item makes me nearly inpossible to chase and kill but on the other hand TF could increase my burst with my ultimate r.
Please Help and sorry for my bad english :/.
