2/13 update: AP order changed to prio T2 assistant for more consistent laning. Large change to early game build order to facilitate early boundless.
Feel free to ask me any questions on the Sinclair discord @RAIGEKI
Play greedy early and once you hit 11k with boundless and T3 bolt / T2 assistant you should be permafighting enemy heroes and buildings.


I
Active
Healing Rite
Can skip this if you don't need it. But this is the best lane sustain item and also helps you take sinner's.


I
Extra Charge
Try to save both bolt charges in lane for when assistant is up.


II
Improved Spirit
spirit good


III
Rapid Recharge
4.8k spirit spike, should be able to win any lane from here.


II
Enchanter's Emblem
Spirit good


IV
Boundless Spirit
Yes it is worth it to rush boundless this early. with 150+ spirit this early we will one shot anyone we look at and move faster than anyone else on the map.


III
Veil Walker
Best item to stay active and healed up on the map and look for picks.


I
Imbue [E]
Mystic Expansion
Need this to kill T3 camps. with boundless we kill T3 camps in 3 bolts. can buy this before veil if you just wanna farm.
All 3 Every Game


III
Greater Expansion
Makes everything easier to hit and makes almost every ult better.


III
Superior Cooldown
More of our op buttons


III
Superior Duration
Affects rabbit, actives, and almost every ult you steal. Prioritize this against ults like drifter / warden / dynamo / graves
Buy atleast 1


III
Active
Warp Stone
All around best survivability item and enables a lot of ults


III
Counterspell
Really good in specific matchups. I buy this vs Drifter and Lash most often.


III
Active
Dispel Magic
Good if they have a ton of slowing hex / silence


III
Active
Metal Skin
Best anti gun item in the game. I really only buy this over warp if they have assassin gun heroes with slowing hex or if I need it to survive while warden / seven / dynamo ulting
Read annotations and buy off vibes. Max rabbit or ult at 30k based on the enemy lineup.


IV
Transcendent Cooldown
Don't like getting this until we have full actives or reverb + spirit burn.


IV
Active
Magic Carpet
Mostly a for fun item, but I prio buy this against graves so I can steal tombstone off cooldown.


IV
Imbue [E]
Active
Echo Shard
Always broken with max rabbit. You can default to this and max rabbit every game and it will always be high impact.


IV
Active
Scourge
Can throw on your beefiest gorilla against spirit heavy lineups. With greater expansion and sup duration this item is crazy.


IV
Active
Vortex Web
Good followup to echo shard for aoe fight control
If your team does no damage


III
Tankbuster
Bad item but not much else gives us more damage and this pairs well with Reverb.


IV
Imbue [E]
Mystic Reverb
Better with the lifesteal changes! stand 3-4 meters behind ur assistant and you will proc this on both bolts.


IV
Spirit Burn
Antiheal is usually important by this time in the game and the damage on this scales with spirit now.


IV
Escalating Exposure
Spirit Burn stacks this for you. Can also be good if you're stealing seven ult every fight.
Seven & Warden


IV
Diviner's Kevlar
Really strong item if you're target stealing the big ults that require you to be in the enemies face


IV
Lightning Scroll
If you can proc this on every person on their team through the big ults its pretty strong and sets up your rabbit too. Also works with vindicta ult now!


I
Monster Rounds
Buy if against very heavy early pressure lanes. Otherwise you can go without it since T2 assistant holds waves on its own.


II
Reactive Barrier
Good against abrams / bebop / haze


IV
Active
Divine Barrier
Good against pockets and drifters. Better if you just learn to counterspell though.


IV
Active
Unstoppable
Only consider this item if you're stealing dynamo / seven ult every fight and are against a lot of interupts.


II
Active
Slowing Hex
Good against our hardest matchups (calico, lash, mina). Strong in tandem with veil walker to setup ganks on the squishy mobile heroes


III
Active
Decay
Good against beef heroes and farms free damage.


III
Active
Disarming Hex
Very strong vs gun heavy lineups. Good players buy debuff remover though so I usually prefer metal skin but you can protect your teammates with this.


III
Active
Knockdown
if vind or gt is owning ur team


IV
Active
Cursed Relic
I never buy this because it says reduced damage and im not about that life. but it is a good item if you absolutely need to lock down one guy.
