Swain will always suck early game because he is a late game champ. You need sustain to stay in battles and AP to deal damage, and to build that you will need time. Some try with 2 dorans for early sustain and AP but RoA is core, and that will only make you almost immortal in line, but you won't be able to kill by yourself anyone either, unless you face retards. You need time, so a bad early is not uncommon on swain.

The problem comes only if you get stuck with dorans because you can't farm with him.
