Abrams has the bulk and sustain to lead from the front, often running into the middle of his foes and watching them scatter. If his enemies waste their fire on him, his backline teammates can lay out damage with impunity.

Description
Mystic Rev + Burst focused build, which at this point is my own flavour of ronald's.
HEAVILY annotated, almost everything has annotations on this build.
Don't fight without your ult, you will die, and be sure to farm a lot. You NEED to be really on the lead this patch.
Item Build
Laning MUSTS
500
Great for roaming around the map
500
Early survivability and melee damage boost. Not necessary but useful if you need regen. Sold later for slots.
500
If you're short on flex slots, you can sell this, specially to get your last core spirit items
1250
Puts pressure and good burst early, which scales decently later into the game
500
Structures take less spirit damage, so you need your gun to do damage to them. Sold later when in need of slots.
500
New map really wants you to move around, and supstamina gives us good stats and more maneuverability
500
Reliable spirit and regen in lane. If you have to stay back and focus on stealing, buy scavenger instead. Sold when short on slots.
500
Quicker structure damage now that spirit isn't as effective + sprint speed to roam around the map. Sold later when in need of slots.
1250
Pick early if bullied. The extra stamina on cast is so good! Can be sold later once the healing is not that effective.
Laning situationals
500
good against poke-heavy enemies
500
All duo lanes means you will be under the health threshold more often. Still a good item, but it's hard to keep it working.
500
Good for early 2 range as well as fighting back the reduced resto locket distance nerf
500
For lanes where you need to stay back and deny more than push.
500
If you don't need Healing Rite or Extra Regen you can buy this and hold onto it for some time
Core items
1-2 flex slots needed only
1250
With the nerf to spirit damage to structures, buying this over mystic shot is recommendable
3000
Applies MysVuln and Healbane. Helps a lot with farming camps. You reaaaaally want this.
1250
Don't forget to shoot your target to get the benefits of the amp and lifesteal!
1250
MUST antiheal item. Heal on kill/assist is juicy. Torment Pulse applies it, so stay near anyone and it's free heal on death.
1250
Bullet armor is more common, but if you need SPIRIT armor, but that instead.
6000
Imbue on 1. Lifesteal, spirit resist and range, and now does 50% of the skill damage in area!
3500
Insane value and powerspike
1250
Nerfed spirit strike + more common spirit resist means the value of MysVuln has gone up, and TP applies it!
3500
New map requires moving around, SupStam gives good stats on top of mobility. Try learning advanced movement.
1250
If you aren't afflicted much by antiheals you don't need to buy it, but it's really good!
Pick ONE
6000
Longer ult presence, good for big carry gameplay. The combo is Slash, Ult, Slash, Refresh, Slash, Ult, Slash!
6000
Hybrid oriented T4 that gives both LS and CDR. Good option but not prefered. Can be bought later too if you don't now!
6000
Usually the best choice if you're significantly behind. Enemy dmg debuff makes 1v1s easier and lets you be a nuisance
Late/Sometimes Needed
Not in order, read annotations
1250
Enemy comps with lots of CCs, silences and/or curses. Almost mandatory late game.
4250
Cleanses statuses and heals when you don't have ult. Almost mandatory late game.
1250
good in comps with enemies that have lots of LS or can sustain themselves well
4250
Imbue on 1 to get 2 slashes on ult easier. Imbue on 4 to get ult every ~60s
6000
6000
Shuts down Vindicta, Talon, Lash ult and gun heavy enemies. Also lets you chase with 2 on cooldown!
6000
Really great stats, pick if the enemy has A LOT of resists
7250
Better Healbane, and also gives you lifesteal you lost with the 3 lanes update. Solid T4
Make them suffer twice (three times with your ult, tho)
3500
Lategame against low spirit res teams where you're the main character. Otherwise, don't buy
9500
Rarely ever bought. Too expensive. Same as Improved Spirit.
Very situational items
Read annotations. Experimentals have (E).
1250
Despite this build's 30% SpiRes out of ult, if its very late and all the damage you take is spirit, you can take this
3500
Slot filler when you have a lot of spirit, but also has great value imho
1250
CF is dead long live CF! You can still get this but I don't think it's worth it for camps anymore
4250
4250
If somehow all the damage you take is still gun, take this
3000
fight against bullet heavy comps
1250
SSH gives better healing, but if you prefer this, go on
1250
I'd go straight for supCD, specially if you buy it after core, as the CDR won't be that noticeable
1250
Not played rn but still useful
4250
Imbue on your ult
1250
The added damage when being shot at (unaffected by resists) and the bullet resist give good value! Skippable tho.
7250
Survivability against gun focused teams. Pick if you're being damaged almost exclusively by guns
