The way I play him, I never get frozen mallet. Heck, I hardly ever get phage. I do buy sheen, though. If you make sure that you land one basic attack in between abilities, sheen does wonders. I build him straight out burst, with almost no defense. If it was one or the other, though, I would take trinity force. I do buy it sometimes, but usually only if I have a bunch of leftover gold. For a burst Talon, your gold is better spent on ad items and other items that, well, improve burst. Trinity force gives you an upgraded sheen proc, along with small critical hit % and occassional slow. I find it to be more worthwile, since he uses almost everything associated with it.
