And moreover, in my personal experience, i can say that, even without penetration, blighted quiver will NEVER deal neglectible damage. Actually armor is a much more common choice in early game solotop / jungler / support builds, and i can see this becoming even more true in S3 as magic resist will become a stat that we will more encounter on supports (which u shouldn't be focusing anyway ), and some on late game AD carries that dare to buy mercurial.

Apart from that, solotops will build it less, at least early game, cause building resists on tops will lead to a damage-lacluster mid-game, and this is without talking about the suppression of the most magic-resist heavy solo top item , FoN. Runic bulwark seems to be the only replacement, and will never be built mid game on solotops thanks to his very high price. So even if we dont get magic pen, blighted quiver Will do damage, really.

But let's keep in mind that all this reasoning should be a decisive argument to see more Ap, penetration-heavy Varus as well !
