Magic AoE damage and fine stats. The damage stacks quite nicely with the spin, helps with pushing and makes it so that if someone builds only armor against you in lane, they are getting burned thanks to that magic damage. Randuin's Omen is more anti autoattack orientated, so if the enemy is more of a caster, part of Randuin's is sort of "wasted" (more like not needed).

Think of it as a damage health and armor orientated item, as opposed to Randuin's which is CC orientated.
