So you're centering all items around a unique basic item? Sounds not too bad, however I have a few gripes with it... So I'm still gonna rush Ravenous Hydra. Well, now for what I'd do: That's it. I enjoyed seeing these items in the spotlight, hope I helped a little!
 * I think the basic items could have another name than Tiny Cleaver: that sounds kinda weak.
 * Why do the cleaves happen every 3 basic attacks? Ravenous Hydra and Titanic Hydra's cleaves happen with every single attack, so with the pitiful damage of the basic cleaver, that reeks of an effect that's too hard to achieve for what little you get.
 * Rapid Saber has so many stats I doubt anybody could use it effectively. Plus the name is kinda bland.
 * Moon Cleaver has the problem of, you know, not really synergizing effects. You're just piling up the effects together without bothering with addendums that make it its own item. Same gripes with the name.
 * Tiny Cleaver: renamed to Hungering Blade. Cleave deals 20 to 60% AD.
 * All cleaves listed here happen with every basic attack.
 * Rapid Saber: Renamed to Rattlesnake Sword. Cleave deals 20 to 60% AD, but can crit.
 * Moon Cleaver: Renamed to Lunatic Hydra. Cleave deals 20 to 60% AD + 20% AP magic damage.
 * Warrior: Cleave deals 60 to 100% AD.
