Under extreme threats you should really mention Renekton, especially in this patch. All of your upfront return from bramble is negated when he empowered q's your shield after his dash. Also I don't personally like Luden's as much anymore, especially as a rush item. you win most trades harder with a bami's/bramble vest rush. And Deadman's should be a core item as it allows you to create massive gaps after using q to peel. Iceborn, Bramble, Sunfire. The aoe icy zone with maxed w covers almost an entire lane and makes e spamming fairly simple. If you wanted extra burst on an all in run Aftershock, highly under rated rune. For the pre 6 survivability you lack taking aftershock, shield bash adds extra durability to your passive. With second wind/dorans shield, you can trade more dmg back by reseting passive and walking up to farm then you will ever take in most matchups once you have bramble. And R-E-W-Aftershock is still enough dmg to 1 shot most assassins, mages, and adc's.
