This build puts priority on the early lane pressure of 2 points into beam.
And afterwards pivoting into bomb playstyle.
Great for solo lane, or lane where you feel you don't need the heal
from bomb
Item Build
Early Grabs

Insane damage tool for playing off your 3

Core
Rapid and Burst are nuts early. Your farming speed is fast and your damage output is great all game. Abuse your good clear and speed to position in teamfights and be where you need to. (All imbues on snowball)

Just nuts item for a character that relies on being positionally safe. Grab earlier as needed.
1250
Can grab earlier (during lane) If need heavy sustain (or anti heal). Insane early due to nade heals.
1250
1250
Buy if you have the slots for it. OR you plan on building Exposure as a supportive option.
T4 options
Echo shard after Imp Burst if you can afford to. Reverb as a carry option or Exposure for more supporting your Spirit Carries.
6000
After the nerfs to reverb, range, and Cd. The best T4 option for increasing your overall Farm/Heal/Damage Output.
6000
Nerfs to Range / Slows / CD have made Echo shard a better pickup. Grab this after Echo if going Carry.
7250
Another insane power spike. If going raw damage, build after Reverb.
7250
Insane item. Upgrade when makes sense (IE: Heavy healing on enemy team) I'd get after Reverb or Esc.Exposure

Note (1)
The 1 point into 2 early is rotational power . It gives good power to roam out of lane, respond to ganks, run urns, Etc. If you feel as though you don't need it ignore and go full into bomb. Snowball 1st ability is good too (situationally).
Note (2)
The build primarily centers around bomb lobbing. You should be positioning well enough to not be caught out. The playstyle isnt that hard to grasp. You can do alot so abuse your mobility & damage output.
