In response to the latest two comments, I am still working on the build and updating itemization. I am currently still finding my way around mobafire and learning about the website and guides. Thanks for your input and i'll update the guide asap.

Eh, atm you got no MR item in the core which is really a problem if you face someone mid that bursts the s*** out of you. Rabadon's into Zhonya's okay but WotA? No. Just to put Abyssal Scepter at the end of the items is not enough btw. It doesn't even synergy with Void staff and you don't explain why and when to get it. Responding to comments is nice but please do your work and present some items in case you get stomped. Basically MR is the only thing that debatable on Swain.

Edit: Swapping Hourglass for x? Nope.

Enable comment to vote. I'm not going to vote quite yet, but one thing I'd really like to see is the items broken up into sections, and a brief note section to explain your thinking on each of of them. Makes it a bit more comprehensive, and easier to follow. Looks nice, though!

Np mate, just giving feedback. Thanks for changing the title :P

As for C2V, when you go to "build editor" mod, there's a menu on the right. It asks for lane, role etc and a bit further down you can see some boxes you can put a tick on. One of them says "comment to vote required" (or something like that). If you still can't find it I could printscreen it (feeling a wee bit lazy :P)

About the build order, I'd say Void Staff as a last item, and zhonya a bit earlier and you're gold. You should mention Abyssal Mask too.

Thanks for your input, it really helped. In reference to your comments, I changed up the itemization a little bit after realizing some mistakes. Also, thank you for your comments on the counters. And I changed the name after realizing you had it first. And as i said, im new to creating guides and mobafire, so how would i changed the comment-to-vote option?

Y U TAKE MY GUIDE NAEM?

Anyway, I completely disagree with itemization ( Haunting Guise is an early item, when you get it it'll have almost 0 impact, Hextech on swain is **** until he gets some real damage, rabadon's as a last buy is completely delirious, their MRes will be enough for a Void Staff to be better).

Havoc is better than Butcher , although I get it since Swain is a ***** to farm with versus some champs.

Fizz is not a hard counter to Swain, I hate that stupid idea. Swain beats Fizz pre-6 all day and if you are any good that'll be enough to keep the advantage post-6. Viktor is not a counter to swain because of his laser, it's because of Power Transfer which soaks up the DoT.

You need to work on your text walls.

Overall looks nice, I'm not gonna vote because it's unfinished, I recommend making comment-to-vote obligatory
