It gives sustain but it does not give any survivality. However, the sustain it's not better than with other items that suit her gameplay much better and you're wasting the gold from the mana part.

A melee champion without survivality is a highrisk lowreward move nowadays. What are you going to do when you get kitted from distance and taking heavy damage for not having resistances? What if someone buys a Thornmail?
