So, I have another question.

People get a Brutalizer on this guy for the AD, CDR and armor penetration. Why do they do this when they could simply rush a Last Whisper? More armor penetration, more AD, and only about 900g more, which I think is probably a good price given that it synergizes well with his late-game?

No CDR, but I find that unnecessary. :O

I've been looking at the way people build Pantheon and some of them rush Last Whisper after buying a Brutalizer, but I can't help but wonder, doesn't LW render the Brutalizer obsolete? Didn't they just waste 1,337 gold? I compare Garen to Pantheon because they're functionally very similar champions.
