Yes, his AP item build takes time to put together, requires farm, and his strongest presence is in lategame. IT'S ALMOST LIKE HE IS A CARRY, AMIRITE?

@Shallsnuffit: AP is not nearly as good as it used to be relative to AD, since even a modest AD build can get +200 damage on Trueshot Barrage now. Back in the day, AP was the only way to get your ultimate to do any lategame damage, and it was still viable for DPS because of the Mystic Shot + Lich Bane combination. It's strictly inferior to an AD build now, but hasn't been nerfed relative to itself, and in fact is a little bit better now because of the AP scaling on Mystic Shot.
