Swap to mid and roam/gank if you can't stomp lane


I
Headshot Booster
Good early dmg, builds into headhunter


II
Slowing Bullets
Makes you stick onto people and harder for them to escape your bombs, if you need to spike before fighting buy this, otherwise save for headhunter


III
Headhunter
Still a great item for roaming/fighting, very easy to proc and gives you your 4.8k weapon spike


I
Extra Health
This item is crazy good after the buff


I
Extra Stamina
Self explatatory goated 800 item


III
Fortitude
After the buff fortitude feels alot better, the heals procs way faster now so you can perma roam/fight/gank without having to waste time baseing


II
Healbane
Early antiheal, good against abrams, mo, rem, ivy, lash, mcginnis, geist etc


II
Active
Slowing Hex
Mandatory item, even if they have 0 movement abilities, the slow helps a ton for landing swaps and keeping people inside your bombs, can buy earlier if enemy comp has lots of mobility


I
Active
Healing Rite
Buy earlier if you're poked out, good sustain item until fortitude, pop it for faster ganks too


I
Monster Rounds
Good when losing lane hard or against mcginnis, rem or graves. This + wall cheeses guardians early


I
Rebuttal
Look at me... I am the burgerboxer now (also makes viscous unhappy)
DO NOT AFK FARM UNTIL ECHO SHARD THAT'S NOT HOW THIS HERO WORKS


II
Imbue [E]
Duration Extender
Imbue on carbine over bomb because it's only +1 tick, not +2 ticks on t2 bomb. You don't have max bomb rn and the longer carbine duration + timestop is simply more value


III
Superior Duration
No additional bomb tick, but increases the duration of wall silence, carbine time stop, slowing bullets, vortex web and spirit burn


IV
Imbue [E]
Active
Echo Shard
Huge powerspike, gives you an insane amount of damage and zone control. When nothing is happening on the map or if swap is on cd, you can double bomb T3 camps for faster farm


I
Imbue [E]
Mystic Expansion
Bigger bombs = good


IV
Active
Vortex Web
Keeps people inside your bombs, combo is bomb -> vortex -> echo shard -> bomb and then when they try to run, swap -> wall


III
Greater Expansion
Bigger bombs and wall and longer swaps. Also makes it easier to swap multiple people with max swap
Buy if you're getting focused or you're dying too quickly


III
Active
Warp Stone
Get out of jail free card, been liking this over stam mastery recently but choose what you prefer


III
Stamina Mastery
Old reliable goated schovement item


III
Spirit Resilience
Buy early if they have alot of unavoidable spirit damage


III
Counterspell
Best 3200 green in the game, negates many impactful abilities if you can react to them, for experts only


II
Debuff Reducer
Buy when you need dbr later on (dispel magic really good this patch)


III
Active
Dispel Magic
Buy against infernus burn, shiv knifes, vin stake, and multiple slowing hexes or other item cc


III
Toxic Bullets
Good, cheap antiheal option before spirit burn, great into abrams, mo, shiv, victor, infernus, silver, dynamo, mcginnis, etc


III
Active
Decay
See: Toxic bullets


II
Reactive Barrier
Good at keeping you alive if the enemy have alot of unavoidable cc
Buy what you need


IV
Spirit Burn
More range and it gives you a shitton of damage and antiheal, spirit burn effectively replaces crippling now imo
Other buildable paradox items


II
Active
Return Fire
Underrated item, good against multiple m1 heroes
