^He needs tankyness. Without it, he is screwed. The Catalyst provides tankyness and mana, and a good start to build the most fundamental item on Swain, the Rod of Ages, that needs to be build early to be full stacked at mid game. So, no, the Catalyst is not useless, it's actually the most important part of his early game build along with the chalice of Harmony. I'm the OP, forgot to Log in.
