You're all wrong. Every one of you. NEVER... NEVER build the same items. If you're having trouble with a tough AD lane opponent, getting Phage/Wriggle's is very useful; If your lane opponent mostly has magic damage (Rumble etc.) rush Wit's End. If you lane against someone equally strong, and it's just a farmfest, get Philo Stone and HoG for sustain, against ganks and getting some darn money :)

A solid build against an equally strong opponent with both armor and magic damage: Boots -> Philo Stone -> HoG -> Mercs -> Phage/Wit's End -> Phage/Wit's End (whichever you didnt get) -> Sheen -> either finish Trinity or buy defensive items -> finish Trinity -> build whatever

A solid build against a lane in which you're being zoned and dominated: Boots -> Phage+Philo -> Mercs -> Wriggle -> defensive items...... -> Sheen -> Trinity -> whatever
