Has anyone tried mana regen glyph's on tanks?

I've been thinking recently, item 1054 is a way better start on Maokai , but he can't sustain as well in early lane phase, without pushing and he runs out of mana relatively quickly without a doran's ring, so i've been thinking, why don't you just take 6 mana regen glyph's it only gives half as much regen and doesn't give the passive, but against hard matchups like Jayce Renekton Darius , where surviving the first few levels means the difference between having them slowly fall off, or snowball your team to death, i feel like the regen could let you stay long enough, without having to risk getting a d ring over the shield, any thoughts on this?

IIRC yellows give more mana regen/level, I play ap malphite with in-lane Q spam just needing 1 dorans ring (or spellthief if support), on top of not ever buying any more mana/mana regen items later in the game.

The only mana regen I have ever used is back when AP Sion was a thing. I went 4 regen seals and 5 scaling regen seals. This allowed him to spam his Q and W all game with no problems. He had the advantage of almost never taking damage because his shield and targeted stun which made it so the loss of armor didn't really matter though. I don't think it is really worth going mana regen, especially on glyphs. Flat mana + meditation should give you more effect if that is what you need.
