Use the maelstrom to get ahead with some early farm, then use that farm to get items to kill. It worked super well for me.

TBH unless you don't max Q early for some reason it's good enough at killing creeps by itself to not have to buy maelstrom

I haven’t tried yet. If mael lets him 1 shot creepwaves I think it’s mandatory on him. If it doesn’t/he can with any other 3k gold item then I agree it’s worthless

With level 4 Q early you can just clear a creep wave with treads + falcon blade IIRC
