i assume that you are replyling to my post.

Main reason I focused on so much penetration was

1. To see how it would work (very well)

2. the other team was pretty tanky.

for CDR, i had 24% just from Athene's and masteries, the last 16% can be covered with blue buff, or a blue pot.

Liandry's works in all cases (2% is 2% no matter their HP) and you can keep reappling it due to your long range, but increases your sustained damage.

Due to your range, you can outpoke the other ap carries, so MR from Athene's should keep you covered.

In terms of burst (from those 6 items +runes/masteries)-

total AP: 580

armor from ap: 87 (over 2 bonus chainvests)

total combo damage bonus from ap: 1856

With all the pen, their effective MR would be between 0-50 leading to an effective bonus damage of:1237- 1856

thats pretty good
