not quite, the cost sink simply far outweights it's overall value as a 1st-item purchase, you're simply boosting a stat that doesn't even matter at early game, i mean how would bypassing <100armor on a single crit contribute to the 900gold sink?

in fact stormrazor is much better as a 1st-item purchase as it augments your overall DPS in both factors, one is that it gives both AD and AS in generous quantity (100% gold efficient!), second is it gives a guaranteed crit on your first hit.

furthermore, stormrazor makes statikk shiv worth more than it's cost as a potential 2nd-item purchase, as it makes it's proc a guaranteed crit which IE doesn't.
