AP Marksmen TF

So, with with the new Rapid Firecannon, I've been thinking of a new AP Marksmen build for TF. Here it is:

item 3087 , Rapid Firecannon, item 3115 , item 3091 , item 3031, item 3020

Statikk Shiv is a 100 bonus Magic damage on your auto's, which isn't too bad. And it's 200 if you crit.

Rapid Firecannon has a similar passive, but it stacks with Statikk.

Nashor's gives him even more attack speed, and bonus Magic Damage on hit, as well as AP and CDR for that W (W applies on hit, tested

Wit's End adds 42 magic damage on hit, attack speed, and MR.

IE gives more Crit (if needed, not sure about this last item), and 80 AD is always nice for an auto attack based build.

Sorcerers goes over Berserkers, because most of your damage is AP.

So, think it'd work?

40% + 30% + 40% + 50% That's how much attack speed (not gonna calculate it myself.) you get from your items. You can even add another 25% from a maxed out E.

Alternatives are another AP item (like Zhonya's, Rabadon, or Luden's Echo) in place of the IE. It'd still give 15 (for Zhonya's and Ludens) AP damage on hit (from Nashor's), and your Q + W + E would do more damage.

Additionally, he gets bonus Magic Damage every 4 autos.

replace SS by ginsoo, and take void staff

IE is lowered to 65 from 80 AD. I think there are much better options for that slot. Probably void staff.

True, actually. Maybe something a little defensive?

Why Twin Shadows? I don't think he really needs it. Guinsoo's is ... wierd. I'm not sure what to say. The problem is that you have to auto attack 6 times (Q+W for the other 2) before it reaches max effectiveness, and then, it still barely gives more AP than Nashor's and grants less attack speed. Compared to SS, I think the bonus 100-200 damage is more useful, especially with how quick it'd charge up. Of course, you can always try your build. But with barely any attackspeed... I don't think it'd be as good.

All in all, that's 80 magic damage on auto's, with 535 AP. Seems a little more like a Mage build, as you only have the +40% and +32%(fully stacked) attack speed.

Why is IE in that build?

Replace with Void or something,
