I do the same and I also recently had a mirror match that I won with CDR. My opponent went all out AP vlad while I went more tanky with a quick spirit visage. I love how I was just running around with my spirit visage spamming spells while he was still stuck with his puny little gun. Though I have to say early on trading blows was in his advantage due to the extra AP he had, but he couldn't force me out of the lane and I managed to out farm him so around lvl 6-9 I had a pretty solid upper hand thanks to better farming and of course getting CDR/mres instead of mpen/AP.

btw, early game CDR is better than late game. Taking 4 seconds off of a 10 second CD makes way more difference than 1 second off of a 3 second CD. I mean in the time he could hit me with 1 transfusion I could land 2 on him, which meant he just couldn't harass me anymore once I got that CDR.
