Guinsoo's Rageblade

So, I was playing Corki, which I enjoy a lot and try to play a lot too, and I decided to go for a more "exotic" build, going Rageblade after Trinity Force. To my surprise the item is actually great on him (I know that the legend says it was made for him), and makes him really shine on more prolonged fights, where generally Corki loses to most other ADC's. But I was wondering and the price is actually quite low for a "ADC slot" (most items like BT or Infinity Edge cost almost 4k), and this kinda goes against the way the item works, because it seems to be a more dps item than one for burst (like Sheen), and dps is what make ADC's late game beasts, so this item is kinda for late game power but has kinda low slot efficiency.

So what's your thoughts about this guys? What's was use of Rageblade at all? It should make your power spike early, mid or late game? It's a little of a gamble (power spike) for mid game to try to recover from bad early and transition well into late game? My opinion is that the item could have better stats and be more expensive. Seems like a great item on Corki if you want to be a pushing/tf machine instead of a tower destroyer (you are Corki anyway, you should have someone with big AD on your team). I tried today and I could totally rape minion waves after my team had some bad fights of which I escaped alive (which saved us some towers). I also felt that I could help with more dps on team fights and stuff, even thought my 1x1 was kinda worse than with a standart Trinity into AD build.

I just tested in this game though, so I wanna see some opinions on this.

Be a fucking.... GOD?

With Rage Blade you can accomplish so much on some heroes. Jax is just amazing with it, Kayle does a great job, hell even Nidalee can do real good with it. I'd say any hero that has a lot of scaling with both AD and AP you should get Rage Blade.. it's awesome. They need to update it's splash art though.

It's primarily for Jax and Kayle. For Jax, it stacks with his passive and causes him to hit way harder and faster as a fight goes on. For Kayle, it provides AS and AP as well as giving her the ramp-up effect that increases both her damage and attack speed. Teemo can use it too if you build AP/AS Teemo, and Kog'maw can legitimately use it too.
