Also, note that any hard CC counters this build. Most notably, Malzahar is a direct counter. He's particularly strong as a jungle these days, so one of your summoner spells would typically be smite. Of course, that means you will have to choose to be vulnerable to runners by giving up ghost or vulnerable to CC by giving up cleanse. I typically go with the latter if I don't see a major multi-second ultimate that will tear my face off. Some hard CC (like Blitzcrank) frankly can't be countered through a straight AD build.
