II

Kouzelnická vesta

Overstatted item. Spirit resist, spirit power, regen, cooldown reduction? Good early priority in most lanes.

I

Dodatečná spiritualita

FYI: Vyper's movement speed scales with spirit power.

II

Rozehřívací náboje

I like this in losing lanes or vs close quarters heroes; your goal in lane is to keep your enemies at or below half health so Venom is scary, this helps with that. Also good for farming.

II

Mystická kulka

More spirit burst, on your already-good gun. The more-reliable option. Good in winning lanes or against long-ranged characters who you can poke with this.

I

Mystická dávka

You need to hit two daggers to trigger this now, or trigger it on a decent Venom pop, but it still helps a lot in lane with your poke.

II

Vylepšená spiritualita

It's more spirit power. What else should I write here?

III

Mystická bomba

The news of its demise was greatly exaggerated. Still hugely helpful with big venom pops (or bolas), even if it's hard to trigger on dagger now. In losing or farm-heavy lanes, get after Tesla.

III

Elektrické náboje

Big farm accelerator and buying it now makes Vyper's gun significantly better earlier to make up for the damage we lost on dagger. You're gonna be shooting more early, and this helps.

I

Sprinterské boty

Nice to have, especially if you're going on box and sinners runs, and the regen is a nice bonus too. Can otherwise wait for Enduring.

II

Maratonské boty

Movespeed good on slippery snake lady, and god do I hate slows. Get early in e.g. a Kelvin lane (may the devil curse his name).

I

Dodatečná regenerace

Consistent, good, reliable, friend. I get it most games.

I

Dodatečné zdraví

Get if you're planning on going into Fortitude. Not worth if you're veil walker-ing.

I

Léčivá kulka

Good in most lanes, although can be inconsistent if you're dealing with double long-range poke heroes. The greediest option here; gives gun instead of health investment.

I

Protiútok

Vs Viscous or otherwise very punchhappy laners.

I

Aktivní schopnost

Ozdravný obřad

If you have 800 souls and your options are buying healing rite or backing to heal, buy healing rite. Having to leave lane is punishing in this game.

III

Životabudič

Ding dong, the wicked witch is dead, and in its place is an old, reliable friend.

III

Kosmický rubáš

Good god, they nerfed it. Still here for now, but I think Fortitude is just better now (yay!)

IV

Bezbřehá spiritualita

High priority, even if you're itching for more gun-oriented items. Movespeed, scaling for tesla bullets and merc magnum (not to mention your abilities), and did I mention the movement speed?

III

Zrychlující dávkovač

Gaben personally designed this item for Vyper. My dad works at Valve and he told me that. Makes your slides 200% more silly and slippery. Priority pickup for me most games.

II

Prodchnutí

Kouzlo přebití

Not particularly important by itself, but we want it as a component of Merc Magnum, and it's nice for a quick reload.

IV

Prodchnutí

Začarovaný revolver

Crazy, crazy good item. High priority after Boundless. Basically doubles your gun damage AND gives fire rate. Make sure it's always active when you're shooting.

II

Smrťákův dar

If they have anybody with substantial regen who's a problem, this is worth getting, and you have an easy time proccing it now. Otherwise skippable.

III

Ostrostřelecké spirituální náboje

Worth after Merc Magnum and Tesla - I wouldn't buy it before then. You can apply it to petrified enemies - Bola, then shoot them in the head.

IV

Aktivní schopnost

Kondenzátor

Low priority upgrade, but not a bad item and the active is underrated. Good if you're slot limited.

IV

Odrazné náboje

It's VERY fun, and can shred teamfights if you happen to catch them all clumped up (and not die in the process). Only pick up in very late game.

IV

Pud sebezáchovy

More gun investment, and more movement speed. The MS (and spirit resist) when below 50% can save your skin. Get if you're facing a heavy spirit lineup in the very late game.

IV

Násobič spiritualismu

I have changed my opinion on this item and think it is good enough to be core, but only as a late game pickup after everything to the left of it. Wouldn't prioritize it.

IV

Fórový kanón

It is a LOT of gun damage. The minus max health is tough, but if it falls on your shoulders to be the gun carry in hyper late game, here it is (and it gives more damage to Merc Magnum, too!)

II

Vampirické náboje

For building into Leech. Honestly, not that worth it by itself with this build imo.

IV

Pijavice

Big healing. I prefer it over Vampiric Burst since a big chunk of our damage is spirit.

III

Spirituální zbroj

More and more necessary in today's goofy spirit meta.

III

Eskalující odolnost

Honestly, this is just a better bullet resilience for Vyper.

IV

Kráčející skála

Shuts down gun carries and upgrades Enduring Speed. Good slot-efficient (albeit expensive) item. I prefer this (+ Escalating) for dealing with heavy gun lineups late game.

II

Aktivní schopnost

Andělská bariéra

Surprisingly good, especially if you're having a rough game and are transitioning into a more supportive role. Builds into Divine Barrier too.

III

Protikouzlo

I do not consent to the Bebop bomb.

II

Zeslabovač debuffů

It's okay. If I feel like I need this I usually just straight rush for Remover.

III

Aktivní schopnost

Odstraňovač debuffů

For your friend who came into this game from League of Legends and is now raging about how many stuns there are in this game. Or you, I guess.

II

Potlačující zaklínadlo

Pretty solid if you need to shut down a gun carry early into the game, but late game I'd rather have Juggernaut.

III

Posílené střely

This is here for the spirit and debuff resistance. A greedier but still good resistance item.

IV

Transfúzní náboje

It's solid for more sustain, but not my favorite on Vyper. More of an Ivy item, you know what I mean? Yeah you do.

IV

Aktivní schopnost

Vampirický rituál

See Leech.

IV

Aktivní schopnost

Božská bariéra

Underrated imo, but probably a bit too expensive unless you're really struggling to do dmg and accepting a more supportive role. Then it's a great pickup for you and your team.

II

Reaktivní bariéra

Good against Lash, Haze, etc. in lane. Not great past early-mid game in my opinion - in most cases Debuff Remover is more useful (or straight up Spirit Resilience, or Spellbreaker).

III

Aktivní schopnost

Teleportační kámen

A bit overkill, but it is funny, and it's actually a huge amount of bullet res after blinking.

IV

Plátová zbroj

If you're getting absolutely shredded by on-hit effects, this is decent. But I still prefer Juggernaut.

IV

Aktivní schopnost

Esence nezastavitelnosti

For that MnK that just loves you so much. Deadlock's BKB, for you Dota knowers. Although far less ubitiquous or generally necessary than BKB...

IV

Rušič kouzel

Pretty good into obnoxious spirit burst (e.g. Lash), but only in that situation - otherwise Spirit Res is more consistent and cheaper.

III

Neochvějná výdrž

If you want 3 million stamina. Not really worth it, but again, funny.

III

Zářivá regenerace

I would rather have Leech, but this is also a sustain option if you're playing a more pokey, sustained damage role. I was forced to add this here.

III

Aktivní schopnost

Nestálá tinktura

Spirit power, gun investment and a good active. Throw it on the ground right after Bola to let it ramp up before they awake. Not priority, but if you do pick it up, pick it up early.

II

Aktivní schopnost

Střelecké boty

The extra slide distance is nice, and if you're slidemaxxing, well here you go.

II

Pistolnický výpad

If you dash jump a lot and need an economy gun upgrade, sure. Good item but not incredible.

II

Stupňující zásobník

See Split Shot.

II

Aktivní schopnost

Rozdělovač střel

It's really good on gun Vyper, and not bad on hybrid either, but it's not priority for me. It can help make Vyper's spray more consistent in chaotic fights, and great with e.g. Billy ult.

IV

Aktivní schopnost

Kletba

I HATE this guy and want them to SUFFER. A classic Spirit Vyper item, but a bit pricey for hybrid. The random 20% weapon damage is a surprise, but a welcome one.

III

Vylepšený urychlovač čekání

Feels a bit overkill, cooldowns aren't really a problem outside of bola, but another reasonable upgrade path w/ Transcendent.

IV

Plošný urychlovač čekání

Only if you have a bunch of actives.

II

Aktivní schopnost

Zpomalující znamení

The actives are all self-explanatory, I feel. You're already a pretty item-hungry character so it feels bad to have to buy these. If you're in a pub and nobody else is doing it though...

III

Aktivní schopnost

Kovadlina

See Slowing Hex.

III

Aktivní schopnost

Umlčující vlna

See Slowing Hex.

III

Prodchnutí

Nával síly

It's solid, but Merc Magnum and Boundless are just higher priority and if we fill up all the slots with purple there's no room for the orange and green, yknow?

I

Prodchnutí

Expanze mysticismu

If they're running away too fast before you get the girl juice on them.

III

Expanze vlivu

A bit overkill, but if you're out of things to upgrade and have Mystic Expansion. Does make your bolas bigger, that's fun.

III

Aktivní schopnost

Zuřivý trans

The silence is whatever. No stamina usage feels terrible though - albeit sliding from a run is very possible with this build.

III

Toxické náboje

In theory a tank shredder, but I've always found this item to be a bit underwhelming. Would rather have Tesla Bullets + Healbane, unless you're going against Victor + MnK + Abrams + Billy + Shiv.

IV

Talisman pro štěstí

I'd rather have Glass Cannon; the consistent weapon damage jives better with Mercurial Magnum; still this is good with our bonkers fire rate.

IV

Aktivní schopnost

Maskovací zařízení

For a funny assassin-ish build. More map mobility, and the ambush bonuses are quite good.

IV

Tlumič

Your gun shoots real fast, this can be decent, but again nothing special. Maybe if they're ALL spirit - outgoing damage reduction is quite nice.

IV

Očarovaná výbava

Effect is pretty weak for a tier 4 in my humble opinion, but 60% fire rate and a bit of CD reduction is far from nothing. If you need the reload speed, you're doing something wrong.

II

Drtič balistické zbroje

Better now with the Dagger changes making it easier to proc, and stacks nicely with t2 dagger. Underrated, but a bit of a detour imo.

III

Rapidní dobíjení

I REALLY wouldn't get this with the current state of Screwjab Dagger - I don't think the price is worth what you get. Still, if you're desperate for the true dagger-slinging experience, here ya go.
