II

Kinetic Dash

Best used when springing fights onto enemies out of smoke, no longer a "stamina saver. I advise you put some thought into your stamina usage and rely on Smoke Bomb’s speed for rotations.

I

Extra Regen

If taking chip damage in lane and need to stay healthy.

I

Active

Healing Rite

If taking big chunks of damage from ability combos (Bebop hook, Shiv dash, etc.) pop Healing Rite and go break statues / boxes while regenerating.

I

Restorative Shot

If you're competent and able to properly poke enemy players in lane, this is a straight-up superior buy over Extra Regen. If they're playing super safe, it might not be ideal.

II

Imbue

Quicksilver Reload

Use dagger at the end of your first mag to extend your damage in a gank if you didn’t need dagger to initiate. Use at the end of a mag when split pushing and stealing jungle.

II

Spirit Shielding

This enables us to take gank damage trades and is basically a 30% health amp. I get this before Slowing Bullets often, but you can rush it into Spirit Burst lanes (Bebop, Krill, Wraith, etc.)

II

Active

Fleetfoot

Use for rotating and rapid repositioning in fights.

II

Active

Slowing Hex

This is our core gank enabler. Against slippery heroes with quick instant mobility like Lash, Vindicta, Infernus, Pocket, I apply this as I engage. If they’re not so quick I save it for halfway throug

IV

Active

Vampiric Burst

Our primary T4 spike that amps our damage while keeping us healthy enough to keep fighting after a damage trade. Struggles into Spirit Burn.

IV

Active

Colossus

I buy this frequently when I need to stack the odds in my favor for burst engagements past 25 minutes or so. Colossus keeps us healthy enough to win a high damage trade.

III

Active

Silence Wave

If you want a moderate upgrade to Slowing Hex, Wave is excellent. This is an especially strong tool into deathball comps.

IV

Active

Curse

I often sell Slowing Hex for Curse past 30 minutes. Communicate when you Curse someone in a team fight. Save it for big channel Ults if they have any.

III

Fortitude

If your team has adequate map control / wave pressure, Fortitude is a great pickup. HOWEVER, If your team doesn't have that control, you won't get the value to make it worth.

IV

Active

Unstoppable

Buy for late game when big CC is a huge issue, I prefer this for Haze over Counterspell.

IV

Spellbreaker

Incredibly useful into high-burst Spirit teams such as Yamato, Bebop, or Talon. Insane Late Game spirit resist item if you are well fed and able to push people around.

IV

Active

Capacitor

Anti Leechboss tank item that takes a lot of thought to use properly. Great to break down Mercurial Mag, Colossus, Scorn, etc.

IV

Armor Piercing Rounds

A requirement into Plated Armor, but we still greatly struggle into Plated Armor regardless.

IV

Silencer

My preferred Debuff tool over Inhibitor for late game, as we are largely concerned with Spirit damage dealers.

IV

Glass Cannon

Our "more damage" option that, sadly, overtakes Lucky Shot in performance. I'd get Armor Piercing Rounds before this.

III

Active

Debuff Remover

To cleanse overwhelming and dangerous debuffs such as Spirit Burn, Bebop Bombs, Warden Cage, Vindicta Stake, etc. No longer works on Affliction and Telekinesis.
