this build is still tanky enough, unless someone is totally fed up the ass, you shouldn't blow up (espicallt with his W for extra armor) theres around 130 armor and MR from items alone combined with his bases and the extra from masteries theres plenty

I'v only done it in blid pick anyway since hes banned in draft and ranked games, it allows you to keep your team consistant on damage if someone isn't doing well and is a nice increase if you're on the same level of the other team
