Building spirit on Graves early mostly sucks. She is a debuff hero that scales. Don't try to be too active early, mostly focus on pressuring lanes and showing up to objectives. You are an AREA CONTROL HERO.
Left to right, can go 1 green item before Active Reload if lane is hard.


I
Léčivá kulka
Try to always hit heroes off cooldown, can't miss it. By far the best laning item on Graves.


II
Přebíjecí mechanismus
This allows you to take longer trades which is exactly what Graves wants to take advantage of her Essence Theft.


I
Dodatečné zdraví
Allows you to take longer trades and not get bursted


I
Dodatečná výdrž
2 stamina hero with low mobility, extra stam always mandatory


III
Toxické náboje
By far the best damage item on this hero, main reason is it allows you to do damage while you're reloading. Don't forget melees refresh the duration.


II
Prodchnutí
Urychlovač čekání
Your ultimate is one of your best abilities. Cooldown on it is mandatory.


II
Prodchnutí
Prodlužovač trvání
Duration also good, works with active reload, all of your abilities, as well as toxic/inhib/etc.


I
Protiútok
Good if they melee your tombstone often


I
Aktivní schopnost
Ozdravný obřad
buy if you are very hurt


III
Aktivní schopnost
Hrdinská aura
This is great if they have a lot of gun damage and also if you want to amplify your skull's damage. Best if you go Echo Shard later.


II
Dobíjecí náboje
only buy if you are consistently running out of charges on your 1
Generally left to right, but prioritize what you need. Pick up some defensive items on the right earlier if needed.


II
Vampirické náboje
Allows you to take longer trades


III
Neochvějná výdrž
Best mobility item for Graves


III
Vylepšený urychlovač čekání
Works on all your abilities and cheap upgrade


III
Eskalující odolnost
Skip this if they have no gun damage, but almost always great buy


IV
Omezující náboje
ALWAYS first 6.4k - reduces their damage significantly and makes you way tankier (35%+ more eHP)
Warp stone best if you can


III
Aktivní schopnost
Teleportační kámen
The preferred defensive option as it allows you to keep debuffing people easily and keep your movement unpredictable.


III
Aktivní schopnost
Odstraňovač magie
Great against debuffs or disarm


III
Protikouzlo
Good vs heavy burst predictable abilities (lash, yamato, pocket, etc.)


III
Spirituální zbroj
Not always needed but sometimes nice, you get a lot of spirit resist from your Essence Theft but if they have a lot of spirit damage, might be needed.


III
Aktivní schopnost
Ocelová kůže
Usually not needed, but if getting melted by a weapon damage hero, good buy
Situational, pick what you need


II
Aktivní schopnost
Rozdělovač střel
You can buy this item WAY earlier if you are jungling a lot. Helps you clear T3 camps way easier.


IV
Tlumič
Great vs spell dependent heroes, if not an issue prioritize leech/ricochet


IV
Odrazné náboje
Sell Split Shot if you buy this, very good if you are super late or slot locked


IV
Očarovaná výbava
Good replacement for Active Reload once you are slot locked


IV
Prodchnutí
Aktivní schopnost
Opál ozvěny
Better if you bought Heroic, usually not the best option but can give more damage


IV
Plošný urychlovač čekání
Buy if you have nothing else to buy and are slot locked and have some active items


IV
Rušič kouzel
Incredibly strong item - would probably buy most games if it's 30+ mins. Can completely shut down certain heroes and give Debuff Resistance.


IV
Aktivní schopnost
Esence nezastavitelnosti
Almost mandatory if game is 40+ mins. Incredibly good for mid boss fights.


IV
Aktivní schopnost
Božská bariéra
Good if you're a bit weaker and more supportive or need to remove certain ultimates (i.e. Pocket Ult)


IV
Plátová zbroj
Become unkillable against gun heroes


IV
Aktivní schopnost
Obnovovač
Only buy if this can win you the next fight which would win the game (ex: mid boss fight wins the game)
