"Good alternative" as in "Good alternativ as a first upgrade"? Because you're supposed to get them all by the 30 minute mark, unless you got stomped in lane.

Anyway, back to your question.

Most of the times I prefer going for Fire at Will first, because it makes your ultimate more consistent + it makes its zoning power much much stronger, as standing inside it stops being an option for the enemies (unless they want to be left at 10 HP). Death's Daughter I usually pick it up when I'm either confident in my snowballing or if I'm already pretty ahead. I mean the true damage is nice, but if you can't make use of it then you wasted your first upgrade.
