I think the problem with hybrid is that he wouldn't benefit much from rageblade or gunblade. Rageblade because his cooldowns are too long (and you'll be initiating with the shield and such, so you want AP up-front), gunblade because he doesn't benefit much from spellvamp (since his damage isn't sustained) or AD (since he gets so much from enrage and his base damage). Hybrid would need a mix of attack speed, AP (preferably permanent rather than rageblade), possibly crit, and some tankiness, all of which don't really mix all that well (if Riot ever makes an AP/Crit item other than trinity force, I'll die laughing).
