McGinnis
Controlla la battaglia con le sue torrette

Che si tratti di bombardare una posizione o di dividere la squadra nemica, la scelta del luogo è fondamentale per McGinnis. Può coprire la fuga della sua squadra che, una volta trincerata dietro il suo sbarramento, diventa difficile da espugnare.

item
Potenziatore di guarigione
1250

One of the best items in the game (max heal goes from 4.5% to 5.6%, more bullet lifesteal etc). If you buy this, it means you plan to keep it for extra sustain throughout the game so you will not have room for 1 other green item (combat barrier).
