On paper, it works perfectly.
It increases not only your single target damage, but your Great Cleave damage as well. Since cleave damage is based on the damage ACTUALLY done to your target, damage is based on the damage dealt after armor reduction, so cleave damage is amplified as well.
In practice...I usually think that Sven needs attack speed more than other things, though.
Medallion of Courage -> Desolator -> Assault Cuirass Sven sounds really good actually : -18 armor! I used to build Lone Druid this way, it was pretty sick.


Great Cleave actually works otherwise - cleave damage ignores armor of any enemy hero it does affect. So deso+moc is never a way to go, since Sven is mostly about pure damage+as.
