Item Build
Early Game
Buy left to right. During laning phase, you want to use Splatter (1) whenever it's off-cooldown and constantly poke your enemies. If you're struggling, buy a healing item, then sell it later.
An increase of damage for Splatter (1). |Upgrade into Tankbuster|
More spirit means more damage! |Upgrade into Improved Spirit|
More spirit means more damage! |Upgrade into Boundless Spirit|
Every 8s, your next shot will be empowered with Spirit damage. It'll go on cooldown even if you miss. This Spirit bullet can trigger Mystic Burst!
Reduces the cooldown of Splatter (1), meaning you'll be able to deal a lot of damage more often! |Upgrade into Superior Cooldown|
More Sprint speed and some out of combat health regen. |Upgrade into Trophy Collector|
Lane Healing
Buy one of those items to remain in lane and not miss out on souls! Sell the item you picked later.
Grants you some health regen to remain in lane without needing to go back to base. |Can be sold for a slot|
Useful during laning if you're really struggling. Avoid getting shot or hit by a tower when using this! Otherwise it'll turn it off!
If you tend to be close to enemies that spam abilities, this will allow you to stock up on stacks. More stacks equals more healing! The healing scales with Spirit!
Mid Game
Buy left to right. Try to stay above 65% health to benefit from Enchanter's Emblem bonuses. Upon acquiring Echo Shard, your burst damage will be greatly increased as you'll be able to throw TWO Splatter (1) in a row and trigger Spirit Burn with ease.
Grants you a lot of bonuses, like soul generation and bigger Splatter (1) radius, when you rack up kills and assists!
Increases the explosion radius of Splatter (1), making it easier to hit enemies! |Upgrade into Greater Expansion|
As long as you remain above 65% health, you'll gain more spirit and some cooldown reduction. This also grants you Spirit Resistance. |Can be sold for a slot|
Increases Splatter (1)'s damage by a considerable amount. The bigger the max health of the enemy, the more the damage! Has a cooldown, so after using Echo Shard, it will not trigger instantly.
Allows you to reset the cooldown of Splatter (1). You'll be able to throw TWO Splatter (1) in a row!
Reduces the cooldown of all of your abilities but also items, like Mystic Shot and Echo Shard!
Grants you with a large amount of Spirit Power that is increased further with Boundless Spirit, which results in more damage, while also gaining a massive amount of Spirit Lifesteal.
Survival
If you find yourself dying a lot, or simply taking a large amount of damage, consider one (or more!) of those items.
If you take too much GUN damage in quick succession, this item will grant you a nice Barrier to help you survive!
If you take too much SPIRIT damage in quick succession or a big burst of damage, this item will grant you a nice Barrier to help you survive!
Very useful if the enemy team is mostly Bullet oriented.
Very useful if the enemy team is mostly Spirit oriented.
Grants you decent Barrier when you get CC'd, including when you get Parried! Useful against Mirage's Tornado, Bebop's Hook, Abrams' Charge, Haze's Sleep and more!

Removes Bebop's Bomb, Infernus' Burn, Vindicta's Tether, Mirage's Tornado, and more! NO LONGER removes Pocket's Affliction.
Parry ANYTHING. This means almost any abilities such as Geist's Ultimate, Shiv's Ultimate, Lash's Ultimate, etc...
Upon use, you (Or an ally!) gain a Barrier, along with some move speed.
Remove all forms of debuff from yourself (Or an ally!) and gain a Barrier along with move speed.
Late Game
You can buy left to right, or in the order you wish. If the enemy is building Spirit Resistance against you (18% or above), check the category below to fight back and lower their Spirit Resistance!
Your double Splatter (1) with Echo Shard can easily activate this! This will reduce the enemy's healing greatly and deal additional damage!
A large amount of Spirit Power. Any additional Spirit Power triggered by items, like Infuser, is affected by the 10% more Spirit Power!
Upon hitting an enemy with Splatter (1), it'll slow them and trigger a delayed burst in the form of an Area of Effect. Has a cooldown, so with Echo Shard, only your first Splatter (1) will trigger it.
Increases the range of all of your abilities, but also items! Compared to Mystic Expansion, it'll further increase the radius of Splatter (1) !
Upon taking Spirit Damage, the cooldown of one of your abilities will be reduced. This includes Goo Ball (4).
After shooting an enemy a few times, you'll gain a lot of fire rate but also more Spirit which means more damage with Splatter (1) !
Actives
Those powerful items will allow you to tailor your playstyle to something that suits you more! From damage, to healing, to crowd control, a wide variety!
Teleport in a desired direction instantly. Also grants some bullet resistance upon use.
Can be used to heal yourself (And an ally!). You can pull people that are in your Cube (2).
Upon use, turn invisible and once you break invisibility, gain a large amount of spirit. This results in a lot more damage for Splatter (1)
Unleash a burst of damage around you that slows.
Unleash a wave forward that silences enemies, while lowering their Spirit Resistance and Spirit Power. Use it first before using Splatter (1) for more damage!
Throw a SQUID from THE DEEP! On impact, it'll pull enemy to the center, blocking their movement abilities and items while also reducing their movement speed and dash distance.
Unleash a wave of ice around you that deals damage and freeze enemies. Frozen enemies take more damage!
Silence a target. Once the silence expire, the enemy will take a portion of the damage they took while silenced, as a burst.
Create an Area of Effect around you (Or an Ally!) that deals spirit damage based off the enemy's max health. Also grants a lot of Spirit Resistance.
Anti-Spirit Resistance
If you realize at some point that the enemy is building Spirit Resistance against you during Late Game, consider those items. Spirit Rend requires you to shoot your enemy and land headshots. Crippling Headshot makes Headshots mandatory. Mystic Vulnerability and Escalating Exposure require you to land Splatter (1) or trigger Spirit Burn for them to work. Spirit Strike and Spirit Snatch will have you use Puddle Punch (3) to debuff your enemies! Finally, Silence Wave is a powerful debuff that will lower Spirit Resistance, Spirit Power while also Silencing your opponents.
Lower the Spirit Resistance of enemies you shoot with your gun while also granting you (And your allies!) with spirit lifesteal against them. So shoot first before using Splatter (1) !
Same effects as Spirit Shredder Bullets, but further reduces Spirit Resistance whenever you land a headshot.
Lower your enemy's resistances (Gun&Spirit) and also inflict them with healing reduction by landing a headshot. So land a headshot before using Splatter (1)!

Deal more Spirit Damage to the enemy when inflicting Spirit Damage to them. Stacks easily with Spirit Burn!
Melee attacks will lower your enemy's Spirit Resistance. This can be triggered with Puddle Punch (3).
Melee Attacks will steal your enemy's Spirit Resistance and Spirit Power! This means they get weaker, and you get stronger! Can be triggered with Puddle Punch (3).
Lower an enemy's Spirit power and Spirit resistance for a lenghty duration.
