im talking about are cute little machine gun firing murdering machine KogMaw so riot chose to do something against what a lot of people say they chose QUANTITY(5.00 as like geez) over QUALITY(that 55% tho) and somehow it manages to work well he isn't that crit machine anymore he is an on hit oriented adc since on hits increase his quality more then ad(and to add to that a lot of on hit items grant attack speed) if we do some math here(without ie like i said he isn't a crit machine) if he is lvl 18 and we take fervor of battle with 10 stacks it'll do approximately 400 dmg EVERY SECOND assuming kog maw doesn't space his auto's(which becomes increasingly difficult past 3.25 as) when kog maw does crit during W(without crit runes or ie)he will do 110% of his dmg since double of 55% now theoretically item 3085 + item 3087 + a friendly carrying item 3050 you should have 100% crit doing 5 attacks every second that do 110% dmg(also 10 item 3085 bolts every second again assuming no auto spacing alongside how fast item 3087 will charge) now i think that kog maw will be one of if not the only adc to build BORK as his first or second item since -it gives him an on hit affect -AS -lifesteal -extra kiting power and considering he will launch 5 attacks that do 6% of their current hp every second moving on we have the ever luxurious item 3091 it has -AS -some tankiness against magic -on hits again he will do 40 multiplied by 5 magic dmg every second and synergies well with his W since it does magic dmg item 3124 i think you would get the gist of why this item is good its basically a ranged hydra NOW if you really wanna get crazy and go the extra mile item 3094 this item gives your first attack some extra mphhhhh to it and more AS item 3031 i remember what i said i wouldn't recommend this item but c'mob 137.5% crits while on W are pretty dank(and the possibility of that occurring 5 times a second is even more dank) item 3042 don't touch this item you'll run out of mana faster then 100% cdr sona with mana costs on (but if you magically pull this off that bonus onhit dmg will hurt however you will have to constantly back unless you have item 3508 )

Tri force was actually the standard first item.

Oh, sorry. Really? Triforce seems super weak...

well, you can toggle that muramana, so there is nothing stopping you from picking it up in case you just want a retarded amount of on hit damage in a short window.

which is ideal for teamfights. doesnt matter that youre out of mana after you already murdered 2 people within a couple of seconds.

It may work in theory but right now Kog has one of the lowest win rates in the game.
