Iphonz Abrams | Triple Hybrid Abrams

Makes laning phase significantly easier. Upgrades into a core item.

12% melee damage is a LOT, the healing from this item should also let you trade more aggressively. Sell later when slotlocked

Burst off Charge, lets you schmoove a little better. If you can ever get a heavy melee off without charge during a fight the damage adds up.

Rounds off your gun damage until after finishing green and purple spikes.

Pick 1 of Emblem/Vest first then buy the other after purple spike. Stat stick for early game. Needs supported by other spirit resist items (Dispel Magic for example). Sell later for a 6k.

Almost always use on Siphon. You can use it on charge to connect to distant walls, or on ult to get range on it.

This item is just a way cleaner solution for shred at the cost of sacrificing duration, but I haven't felt much impact losing duration in my games.

Component of your spirit 4.8k and Boundless. Very replaceable to counterbuild if necessary.

Pick 1 of Emblem/Vest first then buy the other after purple spike. Stat stick for early game. You have 29% bullet res with all items here, so you can hold onto this for a while. Sell later for a 6k.

Extremely high damage for 4.8k. Slot efficient item.

Once you own this you can sell Melee Lifesteal if needed. Excellent for Siphon healing and Infernal healing.

This item is broken on Abrams, it reloads his gun due to his special reload mechanic and gives him fire rate he's desperate for.

Need a flex slot to buy this, can be delayed in order to buy a green 3k counter item. Every stat on this item is overpowered.

By far the best single item for increasing Siphon's DPS. Also scales your Charge (1.4x), Ult (2.3x), and items such as Silence wave (0.7x) and Pstrike (0.9x)

1st Slotlock buy | You can either buy this if you feel like continuing to be a caveman late, or sell Melee Charge and buy Crippling Headshot

2nd Slotlock buy | You want to keep Healing Booster's effect, this makes it better by increasing effectiveness and giving you fire rate. Small bonus stats+Green invest.

Typical buy, but you can look at other options if you need to counterbuild. Useful to engage and disengage due to its short cooldown. More important after charge cancel nerf.

Buy against slowing hex/silences/onhit debuffs/shiv/decay. Spirit resist very useful.

Probably the best item in the game, notable against abilities that are telegraphed like Rem/Lash ult, Bebop bomb, Seven stun for example

Very strong if the lobby is spirit heavy, but can be skipped in favor of options like dispel/counterspell/spellbreaker.

Good stats vs most weapon damage, look at Metal Skin vs carries like Haze or Drifter, and Plated vs onhit

vs Haze/Drifter/etc

Replace Improved Spirit (buy Boundless later) | Can buy early to counter heroes like Calico, Mina, Mirage, Apollo, Lash, etc

Replace Improved Spirit (buy Boundless later) | Can buy to counter every character's defensive cooldowns before or after landing a charge.

Can rush instead of a Green 3k if needed. Nigh guarantees you land charge, good look if you must burst down squishies or shut down fliers.

Can replace Melee Charge/Crushing Fists. Should fairly frequently. Abrams' best anti-heal+shred option.

One shot people off landing a charge in most cases. Be mindful as you don't have duration and could be parried on the 2nd charge.

Spirit Dmg Focus Item | If it is a good game for this item it will go nuclear and carry you. You need to pay attention to which enemies can proc it and how often.

Highest priority item in this category. Gets you to 52% debuff resist with a 7 second unstop on a 58s cooldown. Far better than max ult IMO.

Same debuff resist as unstop, anti-spirit burst.

vs Onhit

Gigantic stat stick. About all that it has going for it.

vs Mirage/slows/melee

Gun Dmg Focus Item 1 | ALWAYS BUY WITH BLOOD TRIBUTE! Huge stat stick. Replaces Weighted Shots.

Gun Dmg Focus Item 2 | ALWAYS BUY WITH BERSERKER! Use to stack Berserker outside of fights and abuse the stats it gives you. Replaces a green 3k.

If you bought duration/slowing hex/silence wave and can't fit BRS, you should exchange Point Blank for this to have shred.

In theory, this item has a lot of stats Abrams wants. In practice, its competing for item slots with better gun 3ks, or green 3ks. Super hard to find space for this.

If AFK lane: Buy 1st Item, sell after 10 minutes, hatch at 1300/1400

Buy instead of Improved Spirit against heavy M1. Can let you skip Battle Vest.

Spirit Dmg Focus Item | Can replace BRS if you want to lean more on Siphon Life. Look at Hunters Aura or Hollow Point for shred.

Can replace Duration with this if you feel you need the Siphon range, gives Spirit Resist also

Buying this when you have 4 actives is strong but its hard to find a slot

Because your Siphon keeps ticking during this it can be very potent to deal damage and heal while invincible.

If your team has no other curse buyer and you're low networth this can help win the game in some matchups

Buy instead of melee lifesteal when needed. Comparable to purchasing a barrier for less souls and it doesn't have to be procced.

Viscous Billy etc

Can replace or be bought in addition to Battle Vest if it's a good game for it. Haze/Drifter/Geist/Mcginnis etc

Can replace Vest/Emblem if good game for it. Ability spammers or need more spirit res early. Mirage/Shiv/Apollo etc

Counters Bebop, Mo Krill, Vindicta, etc. Upgrades to indomitable late game if you don't sell it.

If you need antiheal this isn't a terrible option.

Compy donkey...? Could build instead of Battle Vest as you get enough bullet resist from other items.

Can get you to 52% debuff resist with your core for cheap

If you have subpar movement this can help you a lot. Genuinely not necessary if you're using movement tools. Decent against slows if you really need to.

If you want 7 stamina AND can execute IADs, you can take this. Likely a better item after charge cancel death.

Reactive Barrier upgrade. Sort of a noob trap item because better players will be mindful of this and proc it before using important CC.
