Want to run a few builds by you guys...

So, I bought these champions recently-ish, and I just wanted to run my builds by you all. Just to see if there's anything that could be changed to better suit the champion's strengths and weaknesses.

Top Lane : On Gnar, I build as my standard build. The last item and trinket are situational: I may or may not get the Visage/Omen. I play him aggressively and try to bait when I start getting around 75 or so Rage.

Jungle : On Rek'Sai, I build as my standard build. As with Gnar, my last item and trinket vary, but I tent to take a Greater Stealth Totem and ward their jungle so I can counter-jungle and, if they're weak, ult in for the kill.

I've actually had for a while, but just now started to "Support" with her. I build with her. Oh, and I also buy these: Lots and LOTS of these:

So, how are these builds? Is there anything I should change to make them more better?

I wouldn't recommend mobility boots on Reksai. She has a pretty huge mobility creep with her E, passive ms while burrowed, and her ult. Getting hit while running mobi's just makes you infinitely easier to kite and peel off when you're e is down and ever after you use it to close the gap. Run mercs instead for better sticking. The Omen/SV are fine. Hydra after jungle item is okay. Tiamat early if you randomly have a massive amount of gold is okay too. I think you're better off skipping hex and going for SV when mr is needed. Drop Hex or BT one from the build and keep cinderhulk enchant. To be honest, they've nerfed Rek'sai's damage so much, that she's best viable as a dedicated tank and you don't need a hard damage item past Hydra. Maybe Black Cleaver instead or to replace the other. So final build being something like item 3709 item 3111 item 3074 item 3143 item 3065 item 3071 How soon or late you get Black Cleaver/Hydra depends on how hard you snowball early. One early, one late is normal game. Both early then into other tank items if really ahead. Don't be afraid to drop one for a true tank item like Locket or Warmogs or GA or thronmail if the situation calls for it.

Gnar builds seems fine, but FM might be over kill since you already have good CC, botrk active, and phage passive. If you aren't having trouble with people getting away, trade it out for something different. Maybe Locket or thornmail depending on the enemy.

I don't know much about support Lux builds.

For RekSai , I'm not a huge fan of building multiple damage items. Typically, my build for her when jungling is along the following lines: item 3047 item 3111 item 3709 item 3071 item 3143 item 3065 item 3075

This build makes you very tanky, so you can easily stay in the middle of a fight applying your knockup. It also provides decent damage (CDR, Armor Reduction, AD) and you can easily apply the armor reduction to multiple enemies. Your damage against tanks and squishies can be significant even without a dedicated damage item.

I typically build Gnar very tanky, with damage as a lower priority. item 3047 item 3111 item 3071 item 3022 item 3143 item 3065 item 3075

I love Black Cleaver and Frozen Mallet on him since it provides good AD, Health, and CDR, additional mobility, and a slow. It's very good for peeling as Mega Gnar and for chasing/kiting enemies as Mini Gnar.
