Ok, so I picked this guy up when he came out. Did fairly well with him for the few game I played him, then he got (and deservedly so) nerfed to all hell. Then changed for about 6 or 7 patches straight, so I just stopped playing him. Since he seems pretty stable, I have been trying to pick him back up because I think he is fun (and I need another Hard tankey AD to play other than just Poppy.) Advice on all aspects would be appreciated, late game I seem to do really well, but early game I really struggle. So I will write up what I currently do, and help me where I go wrong. I also have been trying to go dps but seem to end up tanking more often then not.

Summoner Spells: Exhaust, Ghost. Runes: (I am limited on what I own, but I have been filling these out.) Right now I run flat AD reds, Health Yellows, CDR Blues. 1 health Quint and 2 MS Quints.

Materies: A little bit of this, a little bit of that. The masteries for my summoner spells. In offense, I have CDR, and AS. In Defense About 15 points, and in utility 4 or 5.

Skill progression: Start with E-->W-->Q Then I power W to get the CDR on the stun. Throwing in more Q's because they do so much damage. Although I have been debating powering the Q more then W? Don't know.

Items: Doran's Blade --> Brutalizer -->Merc treads (MR and Tenacity) --> Bloodthirster. After that I have had to play it by ear. But I have gotten Trinity force, Spirit Visage, and Frozen Mallet. I've sold the Brutilzer for a Frozen Heart. I've put in a QSS instead of Trinity, or SV. I kind of go into limbo with no real direction and just spontaneously purchase things, usually doesn't matter at that point anyway. If I am that farmed up it is probably over.

But it's the atrocious early game I have trouble with (Ironically, I have finally learned how to overcome Poppy's early game. Now I pick up another character with a bad one.)
