I find spell vamp really good for lane sustain. His skills are AoE so effectiveness of spell vamp is reduced, but when you hit a whole minion wave with Arcanopulse you heal up quite significantly. I find myself building sorcerer's shoes, one or two doran's rings (depending on who i lane against) and Will of the Ancients for mid game. Enemies sometimes forget I have spell vamp and turret dive, like they would do fighting majority of mages. SV helps me to keep myself alive for some time so they usually die before me or fail to run away from the turret's range.
