Guide
If you don't want to take Razor claw, take either Focus Band, Buddy Barrier or Score Shield.
Reason for Razor Claw is to help with farm secure - using lick to pull camps away from an enemy and then having a boosted auto empowered by razor claw lets you secure or even steal farm. It also gives you a bit more damage in these early engagements, which help you not be a pushover in lane.
Once you hit level 5 and get access to hex, you get boosted auto resets often, and Razor claw helps you take advantage of that. If you don't believe me, try this build for yourself. You might be surprised.
Cons: you are super squishy, with no buddy barrier and no access to focus band. You need to be aware of this. The way to play around this is to try and wait for an engagement to start and for enemies to use a few of their skills before you engage. It is harder for them to retaliate with attacks on cooldown. Prioritize killing their healers and carries first, if possible.
