YOUR GAME PLAN

You are extremely defensive during laning, so your strategy should be to focus on denying souls and keeping your buddy alive, but don't be afraid to dive when they do (assuming it's not a blatantly bad idea). You can delay unlocking your 2 before your 1 if you're not against enemies your 2 would counter. Afterwards, you start gaining speed with every item, so you should focus on roaming the map to snatch up boxes while trying to involve yourself in any fight you stumble across to build your Trophy Hunter stacks. By the time you get Healing Tempo, your move speed should be around 30m/s (which is the ground speed of a cheetah, fun fact). Hey, while you're reading this, can you tell me why they gave Dynamo moobs?
