@xXwontonsoup- How did you not do enough damage? did they start to stack magic resistance? You could of switched an item for void staff... any who... not enough explanation.. Thx for the troll vote.
@MinatoCz- THX!
@dragnic - Who doesnt :]
@Zecias- well if you wait too long, you might not be doing any damage for a while. That's why i make you get some other items. It delays you maxing the item.
@alkathefeared- thx :]

There is one thing i want you to take into consideration: Cooldown reduction. Cooldown reduction not only reduces your ultimate's cooldown, but also reduces the cooldown on rewind, which in turn reduces the cooldown on ultimate even further. Plus you get to slow more, and plant more bombs (thus keeping the damage output).
I made a calculation on damage output of bombs when you get sorcerers vs ionian boots, and the damage output per second was basically the same (assuming you spam bombs and rewind every time you can). The ionian boots went even a bit better (a very small bit, but still more damage).
The way you play zil, he's a ap moster and that is nice. But i got a feeling you don't trust CDR with zil very much.. give it a thought sometime, it can be very handy.
1. you havent stored up much mana from the tear of goddess passive
2. it takes time for ROA to charge up
3. after getting ROA, you have more mana for yur archangel's
so.. tear of goddess > boots > ROA > archangels
