I've been struggling to find a way to build Swain since his rework. Only real success I've had is the traditional ROA into Zhonyas route, with Rylais and SV in there. I've actually been grabbing Frozen Heart on him a fair bit too, since resistances are better than flat health for sustain tanks - you just want enough flat health to deal with burst and that junk. CDR helps with his incredibly painful ult CD nerf too.

I lose with the build 90% of the time, but then I'm a support fill main that gets mid 5% of the time, and I still do the most damage on the team usually since it keeps you alive for so long. A good mindset to have with him is that he's a juggernaut, that tends to help in decision making and how you play :P

I've always prefered a tankier build.

Swain item 3070 item 3027 item 3065 item 3068item 3047

The highest rated swain players usually go like Swain item 3027item 3047 item 3111 item 3020 then item 3157 or item 3116 or item 3065 , then the other items in these 3.

item 3001 item 3151 situationally, could make them after ROA. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-NsR0TH6G5w http://na.op.gg/champion/swain/statistics/top

roa + zhonyas + liandries + abyssal + shoes is standard.

death cap is good too, rylais is still somewhat useful for kiting.

you do not want to get any item that doesn't have ap in them, swain does way less consistent damage than before.

i'm also going 2x dorans + dark seal because swains early game is so weak, and its important to snowball at level 6.
