yes, he utilizes spells, but still, his E has the same range as his autoattacks, therefore i dont get your reason why TBC is supposed to be bad on him. when you are autoattacking, you will also deal damage with E, shredding armor fast with TBC and E effect.

i understand you lose 50% BASE AD per proc when using IBG, so that is 50damage less every 2 seconds if you do it right. that means you will lose 25 dps on the maintarget, but possibly deal AoE damage and be more tanky.

i have tried the build and due to the high CDR, alot of mana and tankstats it was impossible for the enemy team to get me. while the enemy ADC got zoned out by our tanks, i was able to stay in the teamfight and deal damage. the enemyteam had no assassin, so maybe i was just lucky, as i am sure a Zed doesnt really care much if you built IBG and TBC. either way, it worked (this time). corki felt more like an AD caster this way than an ADC, but i was able to go toe to toe with tanks and bruisers and always had an escape ready. i recommend you to try it.
