haven't played him in a while other than one ARAM game, but in terms of S3 items, you probably want to look at Iceborn Gauntlet (slow on first Q, plus a little more for free past that, plus it's persistent in the area, which counts for something) and Zephyr (allows you to take Ninja Tabi or Swiftness, the latter of which should be concidered if there are permaslows, plus it makes up partially for the MS lost from not going for Trinity).

As a long-standing rageblade lover I always want to point it out whenever someone mentions hybrid builds, but... let's just say I didn't have much luck with it in S2. Maybe the new passive will make it better on him.
