OPTIONAL. Lets you at least be okay at killing creeps, since your gun is a glorified spitball launcher.
EXTREMELY OPTIONAL. You can be more threatening in lane.
ActiveThis might be okay? Of course, it makes it so your 1 is pretty much mandatory for lane clear, but maybe you just don't care. Buffs upgrade at 10 min, then 30 min.
Yeah, your job is to deny souls.
Your charges are precious. Do NOT use them offensively in laning. They take an eternity to recharge. Save one for when camps spawn at 2:00 minutes into the game.
ActiveThis is stupid good in lane where you suck. Use your 2 to boost healing. From then on, you can use this after dropping an ally with your 4 to pull them out.
Clean the lanes, lane cleaner.
Time to steal farm and air drop people! Left-to-right works.
While I don't think you should get this as most characters, it's an ideal item for supports. You know, like... YOU. YOU FILTHY HELPER.
I know, you want this on your 1, but being able to be anywhere at any time is way more valuable.
ActiveYou mainly build into Vortex Web, but this is fantastic when you drop a buddy in because the baddy you're ambushing suddenly can't run.
ActiveKnockdown is an excellent go-to, but DON'T ALWAYS BUY THIS. Look at "COUNTER ITEMS" for something more appropriate.
This is when you start using your 1 to be REALLY annoying!
This isn't mandatory, but useful against characters like Kelvin, Dynamo, or Rem who tend to heal their allies.
Left-to-right, you can skip some, but DO NOT skip Mystic Reverb.
As I'm sure you've noticed, people will tend to run AWAY from you when you drop a friend. Block their escape with your 1.
Reverb rush time! Yeah, they ain't moving. Why on 1 and not 4? Longevity. You can use it multiple times in a fight on top of being able to wave clear more freely.
OH GOD I CAN'T MOVE
ActiveSlurp them up during your ult, drop the bomb, hit them with your 1, Lightning Scroll stuns them, then they're grabbed by the thorns. Got it, thorn-thrower?
Hello, enemy. It looks like you're attempting to have fun. Would you like not to?
Bet you've been waiting for this, weren't ya?
It gets bigger when I build on it.
Makes everything worse for them! The slow, the stun, the root, AND the silence!
☺
ActiveIn case of 40 minute game, break glass. Put it on your 3 so you can effectively Mo & Krill ult them.
STOP HURTING ME
Shoot yourself with low caliber rounds to build an immunity to bullets.
Only YOU can prevent spirit damage.
Buy this and pretend there's a feasible way to counter gun meta.
Your one-stop shop for all things spirit resist!
Whenever they're being annoying.
If, for some reason, you struggle to escape with fast movement and four stamina.
Pretty much mandatory against melee heroes. Fun fact, it also lets you damage Viscous with his own puddle punch!
THEY'RE TOUCHING ME
Buy this and only need to shower once a week.
Press F to counter everything.
ActiveCan you believe gun characters have the audacity to complain about the one thing that counters them?
ActiveBecause being silenced is no fun (ignore that you also silence people).
Buy one of these instead of Knockdown if appropriate. They're ordered by how useful I've found them.
ActiveThese fat boys won't stop healing! (Mo, Abrams, Kelvin)
ActiveCombine with your ult for an effective Curse! (Haze, Wraith, Vyper)
ActiveA second silence isn't too crazy. I mean, it's okay on somebody like Dynamo or Apollo where you REALLY want them to not use abilities.
ActiveNot really a counter... but endgame, you keep people rooted and stunned, and you have decent spirit scaling. It's handy for your team.
ActiveLike Alch Fire, it ain't a counter, but don't let that stop you from buying this in lane and upgrading to Divine Barrier later.
ActiveHey, if you got Guardian Ward, might as well. It removes sticky ult stuff like Drifter's blind or Pocket's fart.
ActiveNot ideal, but mayhaps you got a gun carry, so you can make 'em even stronger with this. It also helps troopers push lane out for you.
ActiveIf you antipate you're going to absolutely DESPISE a certain character, it's worth building into.
ActiveIf the buddy you're dropping in really wants to be in their face, this is a deadly combination.
ActiveExcessive? Yes. But it IS funny.
Fun fact: Since your ult procs silence, this doesn't help your enemies avoid getting hit by Lightning Scroll. Cool!
In laning, you already don't do that much damage, but you are a soul denying machine. You want to play off your partner. Avoid using your 1 offensively, enemies will always just run away. Do it to group up troopers (approaching them so they stand in it) and save at least one charge for clearing out neutral creeps (especially on the enemy's side). When you get ult, either grab your buddy in lane (if they're playing a character that wants it) for a push or fly off to drop a bomb and a 1 in another lane before flying back. After laning ends, you're the lane janitor. Always keep a spare 1 charge, and use any extras to clear camps or waves to make sure the lane hygiene is immaculate. If you see a fight going on, either fly off alone or grab the nearest person and drop them in. Rescue Beam is good for both saves and also a mistake-undoer if you drop your buddy into a bad situation. Watch your map, you don't want to stack a million people on one lane and leave others empty. When you get Mystic Reverb, your 1 can make lanes unapproachable and most enemies you drop an ally on simply cannot escape. Remember to aim it in front of them so they're forced to walk through it. From that point, the build adjusts so you primarily are responsible for crowd control. Lightning Scroll and Vortex Web pretty much assures enemies will get rooted by your 1. As you'd expect, enemy players do not enjoy this and will often complain, usually about you specifically. Oh, and if your bad teammates complain you picked them up, tell them you overestimated how good they are. They usually stop whining when you say that.
Put it on your 4 so they STFU for longer.
Doesn't this look grape flavored?
