Starting boots 3 pots is good, but it depends on a number of factors. If you're on blue team and are facing a "red then gank top" jungler like mundo or lee sin then definitly start boots to avoid dieing or being forced home in a gank. Even singed isn't very hard to catch at level 1. If you're in a lane where mobility will be a major factor (kennen comes to mind) then I would also Reccomend starting boots there.

In an ideal situation try and grab an early catalyst, gives him sustain and a good amount of health. After that It depends on your lane opponent.

Frozen heart: The best armor item for singed as he loves the mana and armor, and is at least good friends with the cdr. Get at least an early glacial if you're against a physical damage opponent.

Randuins omen: If you have ryze or nasus on your team, grab this. It gives health and alot of armor and the active and passive are both nifty. Ryze and nasus are carries and frozen heart translates directly into damage for them so they need it more than you. If you're jungling than it's a solid choice as well because it builds out of HOG.

Force of nature: you're singed, singed gets fon. It's pretty much his best friend. Unless they have no magic damage then it's the corest of core.

Rod of ages: It's a good item on him, no doubt, but I don't reccomend rushing it first unless you're against an easy lane like cho'gath. It's usually my second big item if I'm doing well though.

Warmogs: I don't like it on singed, and I wouldn't get it unless very ahead.

Rabadons: AP singed is funny and everything but not really good. You'd have to be fed of your ass to justify it, but to it's credit late game those carries won't be able to stand your gas for very long.

WOTA: I've started liking this item more and more on singed, especially in the jungle. But in lane only get it you need to match your opponents sustain.

Shurelias: Listen, I like going fast too but this thing is overkill.

Boots: There are three options here, Ninja tabi, merc treads, and boots of swiftness. My reccomendation is to go either tabi or mercs, depending on whether or not your lane opponent does magic damage or physical. Singed kind of has to build to counter his lane early on because of his extremely weak early game. Swiftness... I wouldn't say they're BAD, but I've never come across a situation where I could justify the purchase.

Wow that was longer than I thought it would be. That's just my reccomendation for item orders and when they would be good idea, you'll find what works for you through playing obviously.

And yeah, teemo sucks for singed. Stupid racoon
