Graves is an ad carry.
Ad carries need damage to do their role.
To do their role, they need to buy AD damage items.

Buying defence is just not the way to go about doing this.

Health in s3 seems to make even bad builds semi-decent.
But starting with it isn't good in 100% of cases.

I mean, what were you going to do, try running graves as a tank?

Like I said, most people are going to out-trade you if you go Giant's belt instead of any AD item.

But thankfully, Psi and Dark have said my point way better than I ever could. I do tend to get mogs as a last item on Graves anyway.

This is what pro players do after there 1st or 2nd major item to be less squishy as they will get bursted if they don't, its not just graves, they just got the belt as warmogs was op and they would build it lategame anyways.

Luckily this isn't "League of let's have the AD carries right-click each other." The game doesn't work like this. The whole point of a duo lane with an AD carry is to let them farm safely and get free damage off by letting their support and jungler act as an early frontline.

You could build four Doran's Blades and say "hey, I can outtrade the enemy AD carry," but all the other guy has to do is build IE or something and be massively more useful than you in team fights. Giant's Belt is great on ADCs after you have a few of your core damage items. Not before.

well put
