The builds look mostly good though. Has a clear focus on basic attack function with sticking power ( Hastened Katana), counter-building (Pest, Mystical sorta, and Nemean), and sustain ( Berserker's Shield).
Looks to be aggressive and in their face early, hence the focus on health sustain with Healing and Multi potions and an early Berserker's. There are good item options with some pen (Void and SCS) and other situational protection items...though I think the one that is missing here is Oni Hunter's Garb. Masamune might be another functional option.
Big problem I see is that no late-game options are presented to replace Berserker's Shield, which, as nice as it is, is still a bridge item.
Another concern is health. The first build example has 0 added health. Protections are fine and important for a Solo (and a jungle 'mana), but adding actual health as a stat is important for overall effective health and survival...with an early Nemean for physical and Spirit for balanced protections, a late Bulwark of Hope might be appreciated in place of Mantle of Discord in that example.
But his 5.23 buff means he's going to definitely be more difficult to kill, particularly when he ults, so maybe that'll be enough. I dunno.
In any case, with no replacement for Berserker's, can't recommend the builds at this time. Would like to see just a few more item options and a true final build example or two.
