Sounds solid. Consider starting with a regrowth pendant if you're taking your first blue (you did start jungling with him, right? I think I read that somewhere) and don't want to delay your build. If you can consistently get early kills, MrMinionMan recommended something along the lines of Dorans>Boots>Philo>RoA>Warmogs>Sheen>Atma's>Trinity (that's around how I built it, just going off of how he said the finished build), with whatever you need for the last item (take FoN if you need to, but you'll probably want to be chugging blue elixirs if you do, otherwise go for a CDR item). It turns him into the most badass, head-butting (33% crit chance is fun) bruiser of all time.
