Situational Swaps
Demon Hunter Sword replaces Malefic Roar
Use when the enemy front line answers you with stacked HP instead of armor, so the percent-current-HP hit beats flat penetration.
Sea Halberd replaces Malefic Roar
Use against Estes, Floryn, Yu Zhong, or any shield-heavy front-to-back comp that outlasts a side-lane siege.
Rose Gold Meteor replaces Golden Staff
Use when a magic jungler or burst mage can delete Argus on the rotation to your lane.
Immortality replaces Malefic Roar
Use once a single death hands over Lord or the base, and the split needs to survive the collapse rather than out-damage it.
Build Notes
Side-lane pressure build. Patch 2.1.90 rebalanced Demonic Slash from 80 (+50% Total Physical Attack) to 120 (+25%) and made its regen a flat 140, which halves what raw attack items return to the passive, so this stays on the crit and attack-effect engine instead of stacking Physical Attack. Berserker's Fury carries it after the 2.1.88 rework: crits now add True Damage, which is what gets through the defender who walks into the side lane to stop the push.
