Manamune/Triforce both do good damage early, but by the time laning ends, you're losing out ond damage.

Manamune is pretty cheap, but it doesn't provide nearly as much AD as either an IE or BT, and the mana is really kindof pointless lategame.

In almost every situation, an IE will do more damage than a triforce, is cheaper, and scales alot better into late game due to the critbonus.

As rap has said, building a triforce is fine if you are fed, or as a last item to give you some defense, but rushing it is just stunting your damage.

If you just want the bonus damage, buy a sheen, or if you just want the slow, pick up red buff.

On the other hand, Archangels staffs on AP ez are great, because they stack well with RoA and lichbane.
