Because generally people will use a certian build or skill order in order to maximixe their effectiveness. You generally wouldn't want to max your scouting traps first as Nidalee, opposed to a heal for sustain or spears for damage. Most people won't max your stun as Veigar, as opposed to your spammable Q.

As for builds, it's just that some champoins are so good with certian items. AP Ezreal NEEDS a Lich bane, Vladamir NEEDS SpellVamp, A manamune on Urgot is amazing, and so on and so on. Sure you would get items to counter what your opponent is getting, but you still have these core items that are must have on champions, and these abilities that you have to max first (generally)
