If you build Avarice first, I will roll all over you with the enemy top laner.

The only reason you can do that on Sion and Tryn is because of their built in synergy with crit, sustain, and crazy late game. Or damage reduction sion passive (-40 from basic attacks).

Wukong has that late game, but it is no longer crazy as of Rito PAX East 2014 nerf, hitting his early AND late game. You need some tanky items to stay alive long enough to deal the same damage he used to do in S2 and S3 in my opinion.
