I've been off and on about this in recent games. I'll either get the blade and be on my way, or I'll get the Boots of Speed and an HP pot or two to suffice.
It works slightly better if you're going with an offensive route in the metagame (runes + masteries). Other than that, I would recommend Doran's Shield if you are up against a DPS carry. Not sure what to do about anticarries or casters.
