I wouldn't though I don't play her that way either. Duskblade becomes 12% of their health in the late game. Lifesteal is only valuable if you survive. Unless you already have tank stats, you might as well throw in more AP for burst. Though her AP burst honestly isn't that good.

It's her ease of sticking to opponents for a second Q that usually lets her be an assassin.
