RoA can be useful in certain matchups if you are getting outsustained or you are worried about being poked/bursted in lane. Generally you want CDR on Lissandra because that is quite possibly the best stat for her so morello's is usually better. Lissandra can stack a tear fairly quick and I have used it on her before ( just for top ) but it isn't a great item and should only be bought in conjunction with RoA. To have a really oppressive lane, if you are ahead build her glass cannon and rush Echo first, my personal favorite, but this requires more skill because you will be squishier. You could also get a Liandry's as a first or second item, the other being morello's, to take advantage of Lissandra's poke during the laning phase and make it hard on the enemy to stay in lane for long. Abyssal is pretty good and synergizes well with Lissandra but is best to use only against burst AP mids. For it's cost it is not as useful as sustain and CDR from morello's and does less damage than Liandry's and Echo is only if you are comfortably ahead. Plus Abyssal is better for team fights where your whole team can benefit from it, buying it first only works if the enemy doesn't know how to build, if he does he will rush a void staff and still nuke you while you lose out on more useful first items for Lissandra. This is from a Lissandra main with over 250 games played in season 5. :)
