You rush Hextech Rocketbelt #1, Liandry's Torment #2.
You get Cosmic Insight rune to use Hextech Rocketbelt more often.
You poke with Hextech Rocketbelt and First Strike to earn gold and burn enemies.
After core items, you adapt. You can play as a tank or as a damage dealer.
How to play
General
Use Hextech Rocketbelt active to poke your enemies all the time, earning gold with First Strike.
Adapt to the enemy team. Build tanky or more damage. You can play as a utility tank, poke, or even you can go some AD items to still have plenty of damage. Depends on the team and how you want to play.
For utility tank, remember that Liandry's Torment works good with Serpent's Fang (to counter shields) and Oblivion Orb (to counter healing).
Cosmic Insight reduces the cooldown of all active items, so Zhonya's Hourglass really works well with this build.
Wait for the First Strike and proc it with your combo, to deal damage and earn gold.
Be careful to not get poked, because you waste First Strike procs.
Your main combo is First Strike + Hextech Rocketbelt + get in range + Q + W + E to get out.
Your alternate combo just for poke is E, then First Strike + Hextech Rocketbelt.
Champion
For some reason, Riot disabled Summon Aery on K'Sante E (shielding component). Do not take it.
Tips and Tricks
Champion
Always keep stacking your Ntofo Strikes (Q).
You can reset your auto attack timer with Footwork (E). It might be crucial in duels, or when pushing enemy turrets.
