I've really been liking the Dade summoner spell setup on this guy- Flash + Ghost, and distortion boot enchants. It makes his teamfighting insane! Ignite is really good for lane pressure, and exhaust is good against assassins like Zed & Yasuo, but ultimately I think Swain's greatest strength is his teamfighting, and having ghost on during a fight makes him godly.

One thing I've been trying to figure out is a good way to include CDR in his build, though. I feel that CDR is really nice on him, but don't find Athene's/ Morello's to be particularly slot efficient in the late game. My ideal 6 item build on him is normally:  RoA, Zhonya's, Rylai's, Deathcap, Void Staff, Boots (ideally Lucidity Boots for CDR or Sorc Shoes for MPen, but some games it can be better to go for Mercs/ Tabi).
