Calico uses the shadows to her advantage, weaving in and out of combat to hunt down her enemies one by one.
Most well-balanced classic Calico build for comfort play
Build reccomended for expirienced players but has annotations
You can use Ava and Ult at the SAME TIME for massive speed boost
You essentially NEED deliver urn for more AP
ANOTHER SET OF CALICO BUFFS!!!
(mostly QOL, only big change is -10s to Ult CD and 2 hitbox)
Choose Backstab/ColdF as 2 item based on lane enemies. If long range lane take BombsT1 (delay SlashT2 after UltT3). Situational items priority after melee


I
Melee Lifesteal
Main lane healing, try not using on creeps but use only on enemies with your 2, Sell for slots later


II
Backstabber
Winning lane + lane partner gun char, wallhack + speed boost + dmg on proc. Bad for blue lane


II
Active
Cold Front
Burst-combo with Slash, movement slow for bombs,


I
Spirit Strike
All spirit attacks do 6% more damage after Slash, shit item so NEED


II
Enchanter's Emblem
Spirit resist + AbilityCD&Spirit power. Either after Spirit strike or Boots


I
Extra Health
To get fortitude, additional hp is great Can get later for Torment/Snatch rush


I
Sprint Boots
Sprint Speed to be in Cat form always with allies or roam for kill. Can get later for Torment/Snatch rush


I
Active
Healing Rite
heal even more + move speed, prio heal for hard lane just to survive. Sell for slots


I
Rebuttal
Melee city, nowadays buffs ALL DAMAGE by 30%, if enemy have melee characters - never sell


I
Extra Stamina
Warden/Paige/Hard movement slows on lane. Sell for slots or get Mastery
Reactive goated, others read annotations


II
Reactive Barrier
The best barrier item, if have 3+ enemies (or 2 on lane) who proc it with abilities - 100% buy


II
Spirit Shielding
Weaker overall than Reactive but easier to trigger, can take both if NEED survive


II
Healbane
Triggers on every Torment pulse, OK against Mo/Abrams/Kelvin/Dynamo/Geist/Victor, heal on kill/assist


II
Active
Fleetfoot
Overall not great item but possible. Giga fast cat, can use in Ult for massive boost


II
Active
Spirit Sap
Road to Silence Wave, -12% spirit resist&-24 spirit for 1 target, not so great on itself


III
Lifestrike
Either 2-3 item on EASY game or JUST SKIP for hard game, heavily depends on match rank


III
Veil Walker
Alternative to Fortitude, enemies see you through wall if use veil in cat form.


III
Active
Silence Wave
Silence for 3s + reduced spirit res&power for 12s. Great against Pocket/Mina/Geist/Victor etc
First 3 take in any order // Take Enduring Speed whanever you can // Can get Silence after Torment or CompCD //


III
Spirit Snatch
Power Spike. After hitting enemy with Slash: more spirit dmg&spirit res, enemy has reduced spirit res


III
Torment Pulse
Main Power Spike. Consistent and good close range spirit damage, core item


III
Fortitude
More health, move speed, and heal while getting boxes after fight. HP is really needed for Calico

Enduring Speed
Get whenever you can. In-battle speed and slow resists, recently buffed. Really good item

Imbue
Compress Cooldown
50 seconds ULT cd!!! Amazing


III
Superior Cooldown

Debuff Remover
Better than Couterspell because can remove Slowing Hex and other things + has debuff resist


III
Counterspell
Block big strong ults with some bonuses, recently nerfed again
Best T4 Calico items, TransCD/E-shift first. Other read annotations, they are still good


IV
Transcendent Cooldown
CD reduction for items, you use them A LOT, also reduce CD of Torment, giving you big DPS spike


IV
Active
Ethereal Shift
OP item rn. Combos with everything Calico has; Ult, Torment, Cooldowns and especially Scourge.

Active
Scourge
AOE spirit dmg + resists, teamfight damage boost. DON'T TAKE IF ENEMY HAS CAPACITOR USERS


IV
Juggernaut
Great item overall as an late update to Enduring Speed, makes enemy gunners life harder
Good T4 items you can take


IV
Spellbreaker
Spirit Nukers + Debuffs, the best T4 green item, if you are really good at E-Shift then don't need


IV
Active
Focus Lens
Assasinate people with bomb burst, bad if enemy have debuff remover/ethereal shift.


IV
Active
Curse
Assasinate people but if they have debuff remover/ethereal shift
