Talk:Tear of the Goddess/@comment-4046013-20110804035944

I don't usually bother going out of my way to get an early Tear halfway between Meki Pendant and Manamune/Archangel's. On some characters, the extra base mana could make a difference, but the mp5 is a bigger deal to me, and building mana stacks early isn't a huge deal. Picking up some GP10 can make a bigger difference than rushing the tear, for example. So I'd rather have a Meki and a Philo or a Meki and Kage's Pick.
