Description

Building spirit on Graves early mostly sucks. She is a debuff hero that scales. Don't try to be too active early, mostly focus on pressuring lanes and showing up to objectives. You are an AREA CONTROL HERO.

Item Build

#Citadel_HeroBuilds_Lane

Left to right, can go 1 green item before Active Reload if lane is hard.

Deadlock Item

I

Tir curatif

Try to always hit heroes off cooldown, can't miss it. By far the best laning item on Graves.

Deadlock Item

Recharge manuelle

This allows you to take longer trades which is exactly what Graves wants to take advantage of her Essence Theft.

Deadlock Item

I

Bonus de PV

Allows you to take longer trades and not get bursted

Deadlock Item

I

Bonus d'endurance

2 stamina hero with low mobility, extra stam always mandatory

Deadlock Item

III

Balles toxiques

By far the best damage item on this hero, main reason is it allows you to do damage while you're reloading. Don't forget melees refresh the duration.

Deadlock Item

II

Imprégner

Récupération comprimée

Your ultimate is one of your best abilities. Cooldown on it is mandatory.

Deadlock Item

II

Imprégner

Prolongation

Duration also good, works with active reload, all of your abilities, as well as toxic/inhib/etc.

Situational

Deadlock Item

Réfutation

Good if they melee your tombstone often

Deadlock Item

I

Active

Rite de guérison

buy if you are very hurt

Deadlock Item

Aura héroïque

This is great if they have a lot of gun damage and also if you want to amplify your skull's damage. Best if you go Echo Shard later.

Deadlock Item

II

Rechargement express

only buy if you are consistently running out of charges on your 1

#Citadel_HeroBuilds_MidGame

Generally left to right, but prioritize what you need. Pick up some defensive items on the right earlier if needed.

Deadlock Item

III

Défense renforcée

Skip this if they have no gun damage, but almost always great buy

Inhibiteur

ALWAYS first 6.4k - reduces their damage significantly and makes you way tankier (35%+ more eHP)

Mid-Game Defense

Warp stone best if you can

Deadlock Item

III

Active

Pierre de distorsion

The preferred defensive option as it allows you to keep debuffing people easily and keep your movement unpredictable.

Deadlock Item

Active

Dissipateur de magie

Great against debuffs or disarm

Deadlock Item

III

Contresort

Good vs heavy burst predictable abilities (lash, yamato, pocket, etc.)

Not always needed but sometimes nice, you get a lot of spirit resist from your Essence Theft but if they have a lot of spirit damage, might be needed.

Deadlock Item

Usually not needed, but if getting melted by a weapon damage hero, good buy

Once you have inhibitor

Situational, pick what you need

Deadlock Item

Great vs spell dependent heroes, if not an issue prioritize leech/ricochet

Incredibly strong item - would probably buy most games if it's 30+ mins. Can completely shut down certain heroes and give Debuff Resistance.
