He's clearly not going to be able to afford the upgrade immediately. How cheap do you really expect a +99AP (if slightly delayed) item to be, even if it is part of a passive? It's certainly not going to be equal or less than your starting gold.

Until you 'upgrade' he still gets the +3AP/lvl which, while not great, still wouldn't be the worst passive around. Regardless, it seems that the ability to specialize his kit to a given role is his real passive.
