Most champions have a maximum mana of about 1,000, and with the 1,000 from Muramana and the 250 from Manaflow you'll have 45 ad from mana. With the flat 25 from the item you'll be rocking 70 ad from Muramana, which definitely isn't a bad amount of ad.

If you're trying to max out your ad stat and have 5 Reavers in your inventory, the question becomes, should your last slot be Muramana or another Reaver?

With the mana from the 5 Reavers Muramana will give 30 more ad than usual, which brings you to about 100 ad. A normal Transcendence overflowing Reaver gives 99 ad, so you actually get more out of the Muramana than a 6th Reaver. You also get the mana to damage conversion, which synergizes well with Reaver's mana sustain.

This math of course varies based on the actual champion involved and their maximum mana stat, and Muramana + 5 Reavers is a pretty extreme edge case. It is a situation where you end up with Jhin-tier ad though, so that's pretty funny. Point remains that Muramana is a strong item in this type of build.
