Great slot efficiency, damage, sustain, and power curve.

Get this in really heavy poke lanes or to maintain tempo if you're low hp.

Build off from here based on the match.

Torment Pulse
This item is crazy value. Farm, consistent damage, etc.


III
Tankbuster
Great for farming/insane now that HP is higher overall.

Mystic Vulnerability
Applies on all targets around you (torment) and gives more shred than snatch light melees. Better than sap/lens as its multitarget.

T3 knives gives +445 damage when you have RR. Land multiple knives on someone and watch them bleed.

Warp Stone
Incredible defensive and offensive utility.
