The swarm is not about damage it deals. It gives you vision of enemy heroes and reduces their armor a lot. Skipping an antijuke/vision/-armor/teamfight skill for stats doesn't seem right to me.

Yeah, having CM as a partner, now seriously, why do people see Radiance mostly as a farming item? Radiance is taken on you not because so you could farm fast but to have additional damage presence even if you're not directly hitting people since you're gonna be spamming that Sukuchi to deal damage as well as to dodge people who try to focus you down. It makes you a priority target and would give your allies time to sweep off your opponents who try to search for you in the crowd.

Maybe it will, but for that skill we need something better than just the Ring of Basilius. Or you will be runnng out of mana all gameplay, wont you? In addition after byeing Radiance it is already a fast farm enough. But till then my mana goes only for SHUKUCHI in close combat.

Grab one level of Swarm early, it can help with your farming.
