Rylai's is extremely hard to fit into Swain's build. RoA already sets you back 3k gold, getting Deathcap is another 3.6k gold. Then you need Zhonya's/Abyssal which is 5k+ gold. By then you need Void Staff as well (you're skipping this in your build when it's a necessary part of his late game because actual damage -> HP gain on ult). While it's a good item, there's just no place for it and it costs far too much gold for what it actually does. You can usually get by with Q+W anyway.
