glass cannon on him is a bad idea. yes, he has long range, but he also has low mobility, so your enemies are still going to get close and his ap scalings aren't high enough to kill them before they do. so there are 3 options: 1. build tanky so you can keep fighting at close range; 2. build ms and kite items to keep your enemies out of range longer; 3. build ad, as, crits and lifesteal-lifesteal can heal him and building like a marksman will increase his dps more than building ap. with ranged attacks that don't use projectiles and two kiting tools, he can be about as effective as any other adc, and he still does significant amounts of magic and true damage.
