Building some AP works well in soloqueue but I still think full tank is more reliable and useful overall, if you have some faith in your carries. Abyssal Mask is good unless your team needs a locket or you're really worried about getting poked/bursted and want Banshee's. I would never build Iceborn Gauntlet. Frozen Heart gives way better value in team fights and I don't think the slow from Iceborn is very valuable at all. Sheen proc is nice but not worth what you give up.
So, if i'm gonna build an offensive item, it's better anything else over Iceborn Gauntlet?

Just build something with AP instead imo (or Sunfire Aegis / Thornmail, those are kinda offensive). I've seen Morellonomicon built in lane against ranged AP champions with some degree of success. Sorcerer's Shoes and Haunting Guise are also decent options. I consider all of those items more useful than Iceborn.
Thanks to The_Nameless_Bard for the sig!

i actually build Sunfire Aegis as first item every game if againist ad in lane. It's just so good as early item, and makes the farming a lot easier. Againist ap laners (like elise when she was played as laner) i used to rush chalice then normal build.
