AP ratios on him aren't the best, they certainly aren't enough to make an AP bruiser build good enough. For example, Amumu can build like that since he has better ratios.

However, they are not NEGLIGIBLE. They are high enough so that AP from things like Hextech, Trinity or Nashor's Tooth aren't wasted. In fact, grabbing those exact 3 items along with Merc Treads and 2 pure tank items makes him a killer bruiser.
