This isn't a rush item, this is a "well, I bought this hexdrinker mid game and my slots are starting to fill up, I need more damage. Guess I'll start working on the Maw". You buy Hexdrinker as a early survival damage item, once the game gets later and you already have most of your build then you can also turn hexdrinker into a useful item rather than sell it and waste most of the gold you spent on it and waste time trying to work that gold back up so you can buy something better
