To me, he seems like he'd benefit from building a small amount of movement speed and tanky support items the most. I don't think he'll be a very good AP based support, considering his AP ratios are rather low, and only affect 2 of his 4 abilities. Building AP would only let him do more damage with his Q, maybe heal like 50 more health with his W at the most, and do a small amount of additional damage with his passive. I don't know, but unless the AP ratios are increased, I think I'll be building utility support items on him.

,, , , , and will probably be how I build him as a support (which is coincidentally how I build Nami). In other lanes or in the jungle, I'm not quite sure how I'd build him, but I've seen a few proposed builds including BotRK. In the jungle, none of the enchantments truly enhance the performance of his role. I don't see any of the offensive enchantments (,, and...heh...) being very useful. Even Magus, particularly because of his low ratios and the lack of usage in his kit, I believe would be bad for jungling. seems like the best option for the extra tankiness and tenacity, even though even that fails to capitalize on his strengths. I'm not too sure about playing him in the jungle, though, but I do see the appeal and may try it myself. Looks sort of fun lol
