People used to go HoG and Philo Stone for Jarv top lane, but actually people go more for an aggressive build with Brutalizer and Doran's Blades. This seems to work more efficiently as people tend to underestimate his damage and he can afford to build a little glass cannon early game because of his E.

His damage does fall off late game, but his utility never does making him an excellent bruiser all-around. Whether top or jungle, he's a valuable asset I just think his great ganking potential is wasted in Top Lane (hence why I never play him there).
