From my personal experience, depending on the opponents I fight against, an early hexdrinker is both extremely useful for Talon mid vs. mage, direct counter to Karthus ulti, AND is extremely useful as a potentional recipee component for Maw of Malmortius (wether you build it or not).

The pickaxe component is very good anyway, cheap direct damage increase with the potential of becoming Max or anything.
