Doran's rings do not stack passive. It ain't worth it to take them.

You buy it for the stats, not the Unique Passive.
With just 400G, you get more than what Amplifying Tome gives with 435G.

I'd rather reach my powerspike ASAP than taking Doran's rings that I'll sell later for less cash.

Well, temporary items are meant for "renting".
The longer you hold it, the more benefit it will. You only sell them when you start building the fourth item (third if you don't count boots).
The 400-160=240 loss can easily be replaced with you being ahead 20 cs compare to the opponent laner.
This build is VERY GOOD when you facing a similar skill range opponent, or super ahead, either via matchup, or simply because you can punish your opponent mistakes easily. But not good towards super safe opponent, or when you are super behind, since it would delay your build. It's a golden rule to all MOBA games, and LoL is no exception: "Don't waste/left empty an item slot, there's always a chance it would improve your stats".
There's a reason that MF, Draven, Darius, ... and many more can abuse 3-6 Doran's Blade strats and then selling them later on when you start building a big item.

İs this for top lane?

I love your Guide Balori. i playing your guide on mid lane and it works i played it 3 times on silver1 elo and won 2x of it. and i gained 2 S- . I hope to see you playing this more on twitch i followed you there and i wanna learn from the master himself.

People who see this guide can't accept that this play style ain't in the so called "m e t a", or that they can't go and tank 5 people with it. With this build as it is probably already written in the guide you should rely on poking not face tanking people and expecting to win. Just watch Balori's videos and look at how he plays. He gives you free lp just like that and you throw it away without even considering.

I tried this guide 5 times already.
I ALWAYS get stomped, always. It only gets good in the late game IF
IF
IF your team didn't lose as you.

Edit: the build is pretty good if you don't suck.

First, thank you for this MP build! I'm trying but failing and have some questions/comments. Once you get your Ult, do you use it on minions as soon as it's up (says you can feast 6 minions) or do you hold it for fights? Team fights always seem to start around levels 8-10 and I always get asked to help. Do I ignore and "focus" on my lane? (makes teammates mad) I've had matchups vs champs that pull or Teemo. If/when I get pulled (Mord for example) I'm dead instantly. Teemo looks even but once I think I can win a fight ... I lose. I'm not a veteran obviously but it seems like I'm extremely vulnerable until late game which usually never even happens. Seems like win/loss happens around level 13ish so I never get to see the finished product. I'm trying to find a solid Top champ to feel comfortable with when I can't play Support (my first choice in Draft) All of my games have been draft, haven't tried ranked yet. Thanks for any advice!

You only bite the minion when you going to BACK immediately.
Just by having the R, even if you don't have the chance to use it, will always intimidate with fear of fighting you. By biting a minion as soon as it went up, you're giving your opponent info about your cd, and they'll ready to fight you ANYTIME. And a better opponent wont just notice that, but also click on your champ to see the amount of stack to roughly estimate did you use R recently (in case you bite a monster in jgl when not in their vision)

"Diamond-Challenger 61% Winrate" bro there are worlds between Diamond and Masters alone, kinda missleading to type that into the guide since you are not even Masters.

I have a question on what to replace if you get a full 25 stacks on Mejai? Just happened in my last game (yes, this build is OP, don't forget 2 Doran rings guys) but haven't got to the last item yet before winning so just asking for next time.
