Been trying AP GP since I got him, and he's so fun. You never have to leave lane because YOU ARE EVERYWHERE. 40% CDR + Rylai's and your ult is on such a short cooldown for what it is. You can be splitting top or bot or wherever, and be a big part of a 4v5 teamfight in mid or what-have-you with your way too high damage ult for being global and AoE. He works relatively well as a support if you have an ADC who's willing to not go hyper aggressive and play extremely passively. He worked more as a way to guarantee a kill when the jungler ganks, as your ult slows, and you can add a slow on top of that with either a basic attack, a Q, and/or Rylai's.

He has absolutely NO waveclear as AP beyond his ult, though, so an Iceborn Gauntlet is pretty useful after Rylai's. Why not first? Because the entire point of AP GP is to keep the enemy in your ult as long as possible, so Rylai's is pretty much required when you don't have a Jarvan. I typically go Rylai's > Iceborn > Liandry's/Twin Shadows > The other one > Rabbadon's with CDR boots in there somewhere.

It's so fun to see the enemy engage somewhere, expecting to win a fight, but suddenly, laughing... explosions... AP GP is always there for his fellow teammates, no matter where on the map his body is. And then, "An enemy has been slain," rings out across the battlefield. Just so satisfying when your ult does so much supporting damage against an entire enemy team.
