Bloodthirster is a good item, but not the best item in every situation. If you are fed and getting kills, Bloodthirster is one of the best Snowball items for Attack Damage. However, that won't always be the case.

Mid-tier items like Brutalizer, Hexdrinker, Phage, Zeal, Sheen, and Pickaxe provide more VARIED stats, faster. You also should also consider a defensive item on jayce, if you go bruiser.

On good combination is Frozen Mallet and Atma's. You get Health, Armor, Damage, and Crit, as well as a slow on all attacks.
