I've found as a general rule, when people say "AD Kog", they're just not being very accurate...they really mean the attack speed build. The AS build with a is probably the best build on him...he can do absolutely insane amounts of damage with his autoattacks that way. It's also a nice spread of physical and magic (although mostly magic).

The real problem with him with either build is lack of escape or CC. His AS build is also overshadowed now...his range even with W active is not that impressive...it takes rank 3 of W to beat 's base range by a significant amount. His AP build is fun, but as you say there are better AP champions....AP can stay back, but there's still no escape or CC except a minor skillshot slow. With so many champions added that can dive hard to a squishy target in the back, he's really lost his luster. Someone like a Jarvan or Irelia can get to him so easily and just demolish him.
