Also here's a question for all you folk.
What determines you to buy extra Doran items as compared to working on an item?
I never really bought Doran items at all, and last night was the first time I ended up buying multiple blades.
It always depends on the situation. Lets say you're dominating a caitlyn vs ashe match up and you just killed her and you've 1350 gold and one dorans blade. She comes back and starts to dominate you despite you're little level advantage because she now has 2 dorans blade and boots. You've to either play very defensive now and wait it out till bf sword or you push and go b yourself picking up 2 dorans blade and boots to once again give you the advantage. There are also moments where you're forced b, like after a skirmish where you've janna as support who can't heal you back, while ashe on the other hand is half hp again due to sona. You only have 1000 gold so you can't buy your bf sword so you take something that gives you the advantage. It's also a great counter to certain burst champions in mid. After a long while of playing mid agains people like malzahar, annie and brand you know how much they can pull off in one combo. Get enough dorans ring health to counter that and you'll live through it. Although this can be achieved by getting a catalyst too. It all depends on situation. Just try to up your champion knowledgde and item knowledge and press tab from time to time to see what everyone has.
