Late game Top
In the late game I basically just build in more boots and defensive items, but if you're playing against an ozo or krul then I would get a poisoned shiv just to help against how much heal they have. I would switch the poisoned shiv with bonesaw. Also breaking point is good if the fight is going to be pretty stationary so you can actually get all of the stacks. In the late game, it is pretty easy to take kraken against heavy melee teams because they can't really get close to you without getting melted to it's pretty easy to secure kraken. I don't like sepent's mask on saw because it doesn't add very much in terms of damage and doesn't do all that much for me. You can get halcyon chargers or journey boots, but I like halcyon chargers more because of the extra health. If you have enough gold you can get double monocle which is actually insane on saw.
Mid game Top
Mid game is usually when I get two or three items. My first item is always sorrowblade and then usually tyrant's monocle because crits on saw are insane. Since not many people are building defense yet, you actually just melt them if they come too close. By now, I would pitch the book of eulogies since it was just to give some sustain in the early game. If the enemy team is building heavy defense, then I would start building bonesaw to help melt through that armor. Sometimes you only get to one armor piece since saw can snowball really hard if you're ahead but that's ok.
1st Back Top
With saw's first back I usually either get sorrowblade with boots, or heavy steel with boots, minion's foot and a light defensive piece if I really need it. When playing against another saw in lane I usually just get armor for them to give me an edge when fighting against them. I get the minion's foot because even that little crit item is super good with saw since he hits so many times and so fast.
Early Game Top
In the early game with saw it's all about the farm. with saw I basically just try and push the other laner back as far as possible with saw's b ability. If you get ganked and die it's ok, and although it might be annoying, the fact that the other team is focusing only on you and not your two teammates is a good thing for the late game.
