Ive been playing tresh is AD builds all day, I have to say, its much mroe effective on him then ap. Hes been able to dominate top every game Ive played with him. Beat olaf, wu, teemo, anubus, shen(couldn't kill him though), and yorick so far with ease. With the amount of CC he has, he can really punish tower divers hardcore. Getting the mastery to allow spell vamp/ lifesteal 3% is like having 6% steal considering he auto attacks with ad and magic dmg. With an early biscuit and doran blade, he has great sustain at top. Well not just great, amazing. Going toward an early Bloodthirster has worked great for me, then with some trial and error, I've found that going mr boots right after then an aspd/crit item is best. Rushing up pure ad didn't work so well for team fights as his passive only works for first hit then lowers. After that, getting a hp item of some sort to help allow you to have 100 armor/mr with great hp and attack dmg at this point, which being at top lane, you should of collected around 80-100 souls at least in armor and mr per lvl runes. The extra tankyness made up for the 475 range for team fights as lane phase has ended by this point. Followed up with an infinity edge and whatever else and you got a high dmg carry tresh. getting a gun blade somewhere in the build has been good also, maybe even in place of bloodthirster, I still need to mess around with it more. Going dmg vamp tresh works well because he natrually becomes tanky in armor so the sustaining allows him to stay in fights and be a real tough guy to deal with. I would say mixed pene marks and quins is very effective and show a good purpose on him. Ive played him on support as well, and going tank for the most part works best there, just grab a sightstone and tank out. As for solos, go ad all the way.
