Abrams
Stürzt sich in den Nahkampf

Abrams verfügt über die nötige Masse und Ausdauer, um an vorderster Front zu kämpfen, wobei er oft in die Mitte seiner Gegner stürmt und diese in die Flucht schlägt. Wenn seine Gegner ihre Munition an ihn verschwenden, können seine Teamkollegen im Hintergrund ungehindert Schaden anrichten.

Description

This build is inspired by Lystic's AP order and rough item timings (like the Phantom Strike rush).

Please read the annotations!

Item Build

Lane Core

L-R | 8000

Deadlock Item

I

Zusätzliche Regeneration

Gives you 7 Regen total with your passive, you will never die in lane unless you fumble.

Deadlock Item

I

Nahkampf­lebensraub

Item got sorta worse with the new patch but its still very worth buying.

Deadlock Item

I

Heilende Kugel

Off CD on Hero = 8.3 Health Regen. Off CD on non-Hero = 3.3 Health Regen. On top of the weapon damage this item provides, this gives you a TON of sustain assuming you can hit it.

Deadlock Item

I

Bajonett

Good damage increase (equal melee damage to spirit snatch).

Deadlock Item

II

Nahkampf­ansturm

Timed to be bought just before you unlock Tier 2 Shoulder Charge. Also bullet resist.

Deadlock Item

II

Aktiv

Kältefront

Burst and Spirit Resist.

Deadlock Item

II

Kampfweste

Bullet Resist, Weapon Damage, Fire Rate, and 3 Regen before banking for Pstrike.

Lane Optional

Read annotations (on the rest of the build too)

Deadlock Item

I

Monster-Kugeln

Broken item for regen and pushing waves/taking objectives.

Deadlock Item

I

Aktiv

Heilungsritus

Buy if you're somehow on 0 HP, you will need to in order to re-enter the lane.

Deadlock Item

I

Zusätzliche Lebenspunkte

Buy to avoid one shot combos in lane and add to your health pool for your 3.

Deadlock Item

I

Zusätzliche Ausdauer

Buy if you plan on buying one or both of The Brothers or Weighted Shots.

Core

Buy 2 of the Weapon 3.2ks (like Berserker, Weighted, etc) AFTER PStrike to suit the lobby you're in. | Pstrike 14,400

Deadlock Item

IV

Aktiv

Phantomschlag

Buy at 14k and hatecrime people off cooldown. You may need to delay this in order to counterbuild, or to be strong enough to win fights from behind. Use your best judgement.

Deadlock Item

III

Geschärftes Bajonett

Most frequent 3.2k weapon buy because it's just an upgrade. Buy this or one of the others after Pstrike.

Deadlock Item

III

Gegenzauber

Item OP now, like genuinely just use it. Update 2 weeks later - My opinion is unchanged

Deadlock Item

II

Heilverstärkung

Buy at 20,000 souls, this is when you max Infernal Resilience.

Deadlock Item

III

Heilender Nahkampf

Item still strong but less strong, buy when you feel you need it.

Deadlock Item

IV

Zermalmende Fäuste

Buy whenever you feel it's needed. You know what the item does.

The Brothers

Deadlock Item

II

Kinetischer Spurt

You buy one of these if you get Weighted, or both of these if you want to hatecrime people often.

Deadlock Item

II

Arkane Verstärkung

Prioritize this one if you own Weighted and are only buying one. Generally more useful in my opinion and fills out the Spirit Track.

Live

Deadlock Item

III

Verstärkte Kugelrüstung

Buy against weapon heavy comps if absolutely necessary, other items can give bullet resist and Pstrike has a disarm.

Deadlock Item

III

Verstärkte Magierüstung

Buy against heavy spirit damage if needed.

Deadlock Item

III

Aktiv

Schwächungs­entferner

This item is still incredibly broken and I don't see that changing for a while.

Late/Optionals

Buy what you need when you need it in a game.

Deadlock Item

II

Aktiv

Schnelle Stiefel

I don't ever buy this but you can if you want to

Deadlock Item

III

Berserker

I buy this whenever I need bullet resist, brings you to 24% with melee charge. Lots of weapon damage if you stay alive in fights. This does not particularly help with bursting specific targets.

Deadlock Item

III

Bleikugeln

I buy this whenever I need spirit resist, brings you to 24% with Cold Front. Lots of weapon damage and some debuff resist. Ensure you buy a stamina item too.

Deadlock Item

III

Kopfjäger

Hatecrime tool for squishies and a source of healing, buy with caution I haven't tested it much.

Deadlock Item

III

Aura des Jägers

Buy if you need to hatecrime a specific sidelaner frequently to keep them from farming. Make sure to isolate targets from groups to get the damage bonus by charging them away.

Deadlock Item

IV

Raserei

Whenever it gets to late game this is a very good item to buy, try swapping Opening Rounds for it if appropriate.

Deadlock Item

II

Aktiv

Fluch der Langsamkeit

Buy if you really wanna hatecrime people.

Deadlock Item

III

Magische Einverleibung

More melee damage and gives you stat steal, I rarely pick this up.

Deadlock Item

IV

Aktiv

Geißel

Infinite spirit resist and infinite damage in an AOE around you, CAN be cast on teammates which is useful.

Deadlock Item

IV

Aktiv

Ätherischer Schleier

This item is pretty crazy but I don't get it often.

Deadlock Item

IV

Aktiv

Arktische Explosion

"Fuck I have a lot of money I guess I'll upgrade Cold Front" ahh buy, helps your burst a bit.

Deadlock Item

II

Wappen des Zauberers

Buy early if you need spirit resist.

Deadlock Item

II

Aktiv

Feuererwiderung

Buy whenever you feel it's needed to deal with enemy gun carries. Can be really early.

Deadlock Item

II

Stiefel des Dauerläufers

Maybe good IDK man

Deadlock Item

II

Heilungsfluch

Basically the only anti-heal you can buy on this build, it's fine.

Deadlock Item

III

Seelenkraft

The max HP is the important stat here, because of your 3. The passive is still useful for staying active on the map.

Deadlock Item

III

Aktiv

Teleport-Stein

Bullet resist and a teleport is pretty okay still but you're rushing Pstrike.

Deadlock Item

IV

Aktiv

Koloss

LOTS of max health and resists, and a slow, and a dash slow. Buy if it's good for the lobby you're in.

Deadlock Item

IV

Panzerrüstung

Insane against gun carries, you know what it does.

Deadlock Item

IV

Moloch

Buy if slows become an issue or against low firerate gun characters like Mirage or Shiv. Quickbuy this to get enduring if needed.

Deadlock Item

IV

Zauberbrecher

Decent against spirit burst and has good stats.

Deadlock Item

IV

Aktiv

Unaufhaltsam

Good for contesting midboss or just dealing with some CC combos like echo shard vindicta tether.

Build is frequently updated, refresh it in the browser often.

This build is a pick playstyle, that means AFTER Phantom Strike you should be communicating to your team either by voice or pings for picks. Look to Pstrike charge targets near your teammates, once you get more damage online, you can Pstrike solo targets and explode them. Additionally, because your Charge is on a 15s cooldown at max level now, it is a completely viable escape tool. Make sure to practice charge cancelling!
