Calico nutzt die Schatten, um dem Kampfgeschehen vorübergehend zu entfliehen und ihre Gegner einen nach dem anderen zur Strecke zu bringen.
Most well-balanced classic Calico build for comfort play
Updated to the Bomb meta being developed
Build reccomended for expirienced players but has annotations
Try to deliver Urns as much as possible for AP
Calico nerfs last patch: Bombs are MUCH weaker in damage if not hit all, AVA IS DEAD AND DOESN'T GIVE STAMINA ON USE
Bombs are meta, get better at them. Calico is a Glass Canon, less brawl, more "burst and run" Take situationals after first 2-3 items if NEED them.
