Ty very much for this early answer :) It is true that i completely forgot that Guinsoo's might actually be a super-core item for him now that S3 is out. As for what nashor's thoot concerns, the thing is that I had always managed to do very well without any AS source than malady's . I find much AS to be wasted if you dont have a spell ready to pop every 3rd attack. And with much AS i find myself waiting for my cooldowns after landing my three AAs, and this is quite a problem, cause any non-stupid opponent will flee asap if he gets 3 marks on them, waiting for them to disappear. But well, to avoid this kind of problems, Nashor's still has the biggest CDR stat from all game, so i guess I should revise my opinion on the subject then :) For what magic pen concerns, i find it to be pretty core as your burst is based on % of max life, meaning indirectly that it is axed towards destroying tanks as well, who will be stacking MR if they see you dominating. So to achieve your job against more than 3 opponents out of 5, you need magic pen ,even more than any other AP carry, imo. ( Proof is that, as you said, AP varus is incredible for his scaling, thus for his late game. Hence, no lategame domination is possible without some penetration. Sad thing is that, as you said, penetration has become a "stack or skip" stat ... )
