you get three rageblade stacks just from engaging, switch on empower (1 stack), leap strike (another stack), auto-attack following leap-strike (3 stacks). Rageblade, for its gold value, is the most cost-effective item in the game (barring stacked snowball items). The damage and ap also trigger his passive - things starks doesn't do and what last whisper does negligibly.

The trick is to charge up your stacks before a team fight (while everyone is poking). Empower is cheap and hitting a creep every now and then does the trick - you should be doing this anyway since your ult still relies on stacks.
