Chrome's Advanced Rapid Haze

The OOC Regen and solid stats get us to 4.8k Vitality at a more comfortable pace. This is to be sold for a stronger Vital option later.

With the Extra Regen nerf, it's better to run EH for some durability early.

Our core reload tool. Use this constantly for shredding waves & camps. In engages, use Active Reload while they're slept.

Free damage printer. Be sure to apply this before Ulting. Now works on camps!

If taking big chunks of damage from ability combos (Bebop hook, Venator Shotgun Melee, etc.) pop Healing Rite and go break statues / boxes while regenerating.

Buy into Viscous & Billy, Calico too if she spams light melees with slashes.

This is primarly bought in lane against heavy CC heroes but there are times where I buy it for the REST of the heroes on their team.

Throw daggers while jungling if it's safe. Hold it if you're stealing jungle deep, you might need sleep for peel.

Core ganking tool, I open with this out of smoke most times. Into heroes like Infernus or Mina especially, you need to apply this before they can escape.

We should always be sliding on Haze to extend our ammo in fights and farming, Burst Fire makes that much stronger.

Now in the core path with Vamp delayed. We can force engagement distances that we prefer and leave giant CC hell of lategame.

If you're running into slot issues buy Heroic Aura before this and just go straight to Rapid Recharge after.

Very reliable damage, great in teamfights. Use to shred objectives with your team.

I am entirely greeding our sustain and playing around Smoke T3's 40% Lifesteal. Use charges consciously for damage trading, treat it like a mini Vamp Burst.

IMPORTANT: To be considered "in-combat" you need to have dealt or recieved PLAYER damage recently. get in-combat before dumping cooldowns! This item kicks ass.

Sell Battle Vest for this, ideally.

Vampiric easily full-heals us with a Dagger combo to keep them still (go all headshots). Engage hard when this is off CD, kite when its on CD.

I get this whenever I feel I need it. Big CC killer and Anti-Pocket, Drifter, Vyper & Lash item (Of course, you SHOULD Sleep the Lash, please do that)

First half of the Siphon Tempo combo, the change to this makes it excellent for tankbusting.

2nd Half of Leechboss Combo, gives us enhanced Lifesteal on Vamp, Active Reload, and Smoke T3.

Incredibly strong for teamfights. Comm to your team when enemies are silenced at key times.

In big nasty fights Ricochet lets you target switch and maintain damage, as you've already built Fix.

Great into big Spirit chunkers like Lash, Talon, Sinclair, etc.

With the 10% damage penalty this item has lost is free value. Only good IF they have A. lots of Metal and B. scary channel ults, they need to have BOTH!

A necessity into high CC comps that will dump cooldowns onto you for a pick. NEED for game-deciding midboss fights past 30-40 minutes.

Very hard to go wrong with this.

A very strong anti-gun/melee tool that gives Haze a rapid-repositioning tool for big fights and scary CC. Similar utility as Stam Mastery but more instantaneous. Dash after Warping.

Can be incredibly strong if you're dueling / getting caught out by Burst M1 heroes like Wraith or Drifter.

I seldom buy Fortitude. It's at its best when your team has heavy map control and you can permanently roam. Great snowball macro tool.

If you need DoT % damage and Anti-Heal, this is a great item. Not core.

Only buy this after you've stacked Vamp Siphon & Tempo. It's very good if you do that.

NOW ACTUALLY COUNTERS PLATED ARMOR - Bullet Resist stacking is very easy for enemies to do, this cuts through.

Experimental ⸺ Classic Double Dagger item.

Gets us to 5 Spellslinger stacks (55% Fire Rate)

If their team is carried by MASSIVE gun damage this is our best tool for survival.

Especially if you bought Enduring, Juggernaut is really good at giving us a leg-up on other M1 heroes in teamfight duels.

Experimental ⸺ This item is underrated. We're chasing active slots with Spellslinger, Eshift gives us a great stall tool for CC and to recharge Smoke or Dagger.

I often get Silencer before this but if their team is primarily M1 damage then Inhib is worth getting first.

Counterspell is better
