PSA: If you are doing poorly in lane, DO NOT keep building damage

I don't know how many times I have watched a perfectly good game go to waste because one or more of my teammates did poorly early game-whether due to their mistakes, being camped, or enemy is just better- and they still kept building damage. Do you think building damage against a Tryndamere who is shoving his blade up your a** going to save you, or help you do any better? NO. You fucking rush a Randuin's or some kind of tanky defensive item.

Same goes for any matchup, but man, learn to play defensively when you are getting crapped on early. You will at least be able to save yourself some deaths and your team from a future waste of time.

Rant over.

Exactly, if you are a 0-5 cait, stop trying to get IE and rush GA.

That's the inevitable problem with those champs, If your Job is to do damage, your options to counter build the opponent are limited. (part of the reason why I don't play glass cannons.)

But if your not a damage carry. (particularly if your not a ranged carry) Then you should be building defensive items anyway. It may actually help you snowball, more so than building tons of damage. Since it will allow you to jump on your opponents with way less risk.

the implication here is if you are top or a tanky mid.

I can't count the number of times I've seen Darius top feeding a Riven and his inventory is item 3044 item 1036 item 1001 item 2033 instead of item 3751 item 1031 . Or when Chogath is feeding Ahri and instead of going for item 3027 he buys a god damn item 1058 .
