Untrue. Against AD, and not only in that scenario, maxing E is the best option as the magic shield is useless and it brings you more waveclear. It also deals more damage than Q and it's AoE. You're not supposed to go aggro or take kills in lane, so poking with Q is not necessary unless you believe it can be useful (sometimes it simply will not).

I also recommend teleport over ignite anytime-- as I said, you're hardly gonna get any kill in lane. On the other hand, tp allows you to snag a kill or two bot (sometimes even pre6) to get you rolling, and overall scales much better into late game.

As for build, RoA rush is mandatory, but the Sheen item can be delayed. Second item should be Zhonya's, and Sheen item has no reason to be rushed.
