Manipulating time lets Paradox outpace an enemy in one on one combat. She thrives by subjecting her enemies to timely swaps into a waiting pulse grenade, her wall, or into the middle of her teammates.

The cannon paradox build.
This build is very versatile, but mostly centered around your gun, swaps, and utility.
Lane items are left to right, but the rest are mostly depending on the game.
Shout out to Jean for the basis of this buiild <3
Buy top row L -> R, bottom row are other options

I
Restorative Shot
Really good current patch. Can buy first if you get chunked first wave. Make sure you hit a hero off of cooldown.
I
Extra Regen
My most often purchased sustain. Always just healing more.
I
Active
Healing Rite
Good heals but cannot peak for a while. Scales decently well into mid game.
III
Active
Rescue Beam
You can be that guy for your team
II
Spirit Shielding
Easy to proc against many spirit heros
II
Active
Restorative Locket
Under used item. Good against spammy heros.
Always buy first two + 1-2 gun items
III
Superior Cooldown
More abilities. Big power spike to roam.
III
Fortitude
Verdict is still up if this item is dead. Still gives good move speed, and no longer need to go to base. I have been experimenting buying veil walker instead, but am still unsure which I prefer.
III
Hollow Point
Huge dps spike
III
Active
Alchemical Fire
Most teams should have one. Your moe, kelvin, or ivy might purchase so make sure you check their items before hand.
III
Active
Cultist Sacrifice
I still buy this item often. Once Transcendent is purchased you'll have a 100% up time, but isn't mandatory.
Most common buys are hex, knockdown, and wave
II
Active
Slowing Hex
Lock down people after swap
III
Active
Knockdown
Anti flyer, also canceling sven, lash, beepboop ults
III
Active
Silence Wave
Good into casters. Swap into silence wall, then refresh silence with wave.
II
Suppressor
Good item for the price, but can be hard to apply.
III
Active
Decay
Trash item IMO, but can be helpful if they have one issue sustain hero.
III
Active
Disarming Hex
Another trash item, but can keep you alive for 4 extra seconds if the enemy viper gets fed.
Priority L -> R, typically will only buy 1-2 a game. Choose wisley :)
IV
Active
Curse
Buy almost every game. Good against Lash, Pocket, Yamato, Sven, dynamo, and any character you hate.
IV
Crippling Headshot
Shreds resists, and healing reduction. Very good item 10/10
IV
Inhibitor
Extra health, damage, and reduces enemy's damage output. It takes two full bursts to proc.
IV
Transcendent Cooldown
Luxary, but will want to buy alot of the time. Many of your items have cooldowns, and even mroe swaps.
III
Counterspell
THIS IS THE META PLEASE BUY
III
Active
Debuff Remover
Cleanse debuffs
III
Stamina Mastery
Very luxary item
III

You're melting to gun.

Infernus, haze, mirage, and gun overall.

Active
Warp Stone
Dodge many abilities, and overall more movement.

Veil Walker
Actually sick for ganking
III
Trophy Collector
Deathy will hate you for buying this. If you win lane, and start ganking early this can give huge value, or be a waste of 3200
IV
Active
Shadow Weave
Experimental. Gives move speed, and gives burst of spirit.
IV
Active
Capacitor
Experimental, but great against viscous cube, return fire, metal skin, or any other buffs on the other team
