Actually he doesn't really have a main form due to the very distinct advantages each form has. As an example for mini being superiour to mega in a fight, in one match a faced a maokai, in mini I could fight in him, in mega I could swear he was healing quicker. Mini was superiour thanks to hyper's damage, while the extra CC & defense from mega added little against a maokai. Similarly against a Nasus you're better off kiting with boomerangs than going all in with mega, because you're not going to survive 500 stack Q's for long, bonus armor or not. Or try fighting a Singed in Mega, good luck keeping up with the bastard, let alone hitting him. As such it isn't really a "larvea" state, both are relevant. In fact, due to limitations on your transform both NEED to be relevant, otherwise he'd be unplayable. Relying on only one form for favorable exchanges is going to get you defeated the moment you switch. As such you need to itemize for both forms, but the kind of builds you need for that are nonexistant in LoL. In general hybrid items aren't all that common in LoL most of them have a stat they very clearly focus on.
