Right but assassins like Zed and Talon are already buying early hexdrinkers to make laning against mages easier, and the maw changes won't prevent that. Keep in mind that Maw's stats really aren't that impressive. It only gives 10 flat armor pen now. I don't see why assassins couldn't still build an early Hexdrinker for the shield passive, then go on to build Ghostblade or Duskblade or whatever, and then come back to finish Maw later.
