OP here.

A gunblade gives you

49 damage on Q

44.5 damage on W

35 damage on E

242.5 damage on a fully channeled ult

Total : 371 damage

If you buy a Revolver and a DFg with that gold instead (along with Kage gold), they gives you

84 damage on Q

42 damage on W

60 damage on E

210 damage on a fully channeled ult

Total : 396 damage

Now, there's the active part. Gunblade deals 300 damage with slow while DFG deals 200 damage or 29.8% current hp damage assuming you only have the 120 AP provided by the DFG + Revolver. Unless you have Gunblade at lv 7, which of course you won't, your lane opponent HP will be at 1.2k ish by the time you get it.

Assuming they're at max hp, you will be dealing 671 damage from Gunblade

or 753.6 via DFG + Burst combo. At full health, DFG burst is stronger (obv)

At half health, the Gunblade, is without a doubt, stronger but the thing is, people at 700 hpish will die from your normal burst combo anyway so both of them will guarantee the same result. Dead opponent in one combo.

We can also look at late game where you have over 400 AP with people running around at 2k hp. It's obvious which one is stronger throughout the game. (It doesn't hurt to have both DFG and Gunblade but games aren't really suppose to go on for that long with you being so fed with 20 kills in 25 minutes unless the other side is herpderp)
