I build her full AD most of the time. Wriggle's first for wards and early survivability, then Mercury's Treads, then Bloodthirster Bloodthirster, then depending on enemy team either QSS for CCs or Maw, then if the game's not ended, Infinity Edge -> replace Wriggle's with Youmuu's. Also like to pop a Guardian Angel anywhere in between these items if the enemy team can focus me down, and I always consider switching crit for Last Whisper, again depending on enemy composition. (Keep adapting to their composition, it's the point of the whole game.)

I never go first in any teamfights (I don't tank at all if possible), always hit their mage and assassin types first, and dash out as soon as I find my lifesteal to be unable to sustain me.

The thing is, I try to land all my Qs and use up all my passive charges, so for Q alone I get not only 2.1 per bonus AD ratio for my AD but also an extra 1.5 per bonus AD from the 3 passive charges. When Q alone can hit 3.6 per bonus AD, not to mention W has a 1.0 ratio as well, and her ulti is a 20% bonus on total damage. With all her skills, I feel the urge to go pure AD rather than tanky AD (plus Atma's got nerfed abit anyway).
