Feel free to ask me any questions on the Sinclair discord @RAIGEKI

Item Build

#Citadel_HeroBuilds_EarlyGame

Lots of spirit power and items we need to empower bolt early. Play lane conservatively until you hit 2.6k and get T2 bolt then you should be able to kill or push anyone out. Remember that when you hit 7.5k souls you can one shot anyone.

Deadlock Item

I

Rasante Kugeln

Very strong for lane pressure, by far the highest impact t1 gun item but you can buy monster rounds instead if you prefer that.

Deadlock Item

I

Zusätzliche Aufladung

Try to sync dropping assistant with 2 bolt charges until you have t2 bolt. I often solo kill someone on wave 3 with assistant + 2 bolts.

Schnelle Aufladung

God tier power spike with t3 bolt

Deadlock Item

I

Veredeln

Mystische Erweiterung

needed to kill neutral camps with bolt. Learn the T3 lineups in explore map mode.

Deadlock Item

II

Veredeln

Abklingzeitraffer

more bolts and spirit investment breakpoint.

Deadlock Item

II

Reaktiver Schild

If the game enables this you should always buy it. Bebop / Haze / Abrams / Paradox are the main heroes you want this against.

Midgame core

Usually in this order if ahead / even. If you are behind skip carpet and get something cheap like warp stone instead.

Deadlock Item

III

Mystischer Schleier

Still too good to ignore even with the recent nerfs. Sustain / Map mobility / crazy stat stick all in one.

Deadlock Item

IV

Aktiv

Fliegender Teppich

Be unkillable and everywhere on the map in tandem with veil walker and take the best high ground position in every fight for bolts or stolen ultimates.

Deadlock Item

III

Größere Erweiterung

Amazing for bolt / rabbit / actives and almost every ult you steal.

Deadlock Item

III

Überlegene Abklingzeit

Get this at this point for optimal spirit investment.

Deadlock Item

IV

Grenzenlose Magiekraft

Giga damage increase to everything. 90% of the time this is the first item I buy from this category

Approaching lategame your item choices can vary a lot. based on enemy lineup either max rabbit or ult next and itemize around that.

This is primarily a PUSHING build. Sinclair is the best walker killer in the game this patch and stacking mobility like we do lets you put crazy map pressure out the entire game while being very hard to catch.

Endgame Choices

Read annotations and buy off vibes

Deadlock Item

IV

Transzendente Abklingzeit

I don't usually buy this unless I have full actives or am slotlocked.

Deadlock Item

III

Überlegene Dauer

Always a good item at this point in the game. If against some ults like warden or dynamo you can buy this earlier.

Deadlock Item

IV

Veredeln

Aktiv

Echosplitter

Always broken with max rabbit. If I'm maxing ult before rabbit I usually won't buy this unless it goes extremely late.

Deadlock Item

IV

Veredeln

Mystischer Hall

If you just want pure damage this is the best item after boundless.

Deadlock Item

IV

Aktiv

Geißel

Can throw on your beefiest gorilla against spirit heavy lineups. With greater expansion and sup duration this item is crazy. Can also pop this on yourself while channeling carpet.

Deadlock Item

III

Aktiv

Alchemie-Feuer

Scales extremely high with the spirit and aoe we buy

Deadlock Item

IV

Rüstung des Weissagers

Really strong after the recent buff. just press ult on anyone and get huge spirit / shield

Deadlock Item

IV

Aktiv

Göttlicher Schild

Good if getting owned by pocket / drifter / ivy ult

Situationals

Stuff that sometimes comes up, read annotations

Deadlock Item

I

Aktiv

Heilungsritus

best lane sustain option. I buy this most games but if you dominate you can skip it

Deadlock Item

I

Widerstand

For the cavemen

Deadlock Item

II

Heilungsfluch

Good against heal heavy lineups.

Deadlock Item

III

Aktiv

Rettungs­strahl

Rare buy but sometimes ultra lategame if you're against heavy pick it can be good.

Deadlock Item

III

Trophäensammler

If you completely own your lane you can get this after rapid recharge and just play hyper active. Definitely not an every game item.

Deadlock Item

III

Aktiv

Teleport-Stein

Always a decent item and a cheaper alternative to carpet, if you are playing around stealing warden / seven / dynamo ults this is good

Deadlock Item

III

Gegenzauber

Amazing defensive item against specific spells and gives good stats

Deadlock Item

III

Aktiv

Metallhaut

Best anti gun hero item on this hero and often necessary to use seven and warden ults properly, we get a good amount of duration from our items so this pulls extra weight.

Deadlock Item

II

Aktiv

Fluch der Langsamkeit

Needed to kill some elusive heroes. Never upgrade to Vortex.

Deadlock Item

III

Aktiv

Verfall

Good vs tanky lineups

Deadlock Item

III

Aktiv

Niederschlag

Good against Vindicta, Lash, GT, and channeling ultimates like seven / dynamo.
