trinity force works b/c mao has low cooldowns, high base damage, likes he movement speed (roaming & initiating), likes the attack speed (his AA animation is pretty slow, need to get those passive procs off in teamfights), and the sheen procs noticably improve his DPS.

It works better with him if he builds mostly tanky since it provides enough damage output by itself as an item
