II

신비탄

Best early poke. Try to save your shot for enemy heroes, helps with Spellbreaker later. Hold M2 after grapple to guarantee hit.

II

활성 효과

얼음 전선

Slow after grapple + Flat damage early. Buy Spirit Sap if enemy team will have high Spirit Resists. (McGinnis, Kelvin, Tanky heroes, etc.)

II

마법사의 문장

Early CDR + Resists. I recommend trying Healing Booster or Spirit Shielding if you're looking for another option.

II

치유 억제

The best early antiheal option. Also has good sustain early on kill. Stays relevant against Victor because of Torment Pulse. Can be sold for Spirit Burn later.

III

고통의 파동

Super core. Helps you win fights early and is decent for farm/wave clear. Can delay till after Veil Walker.

II

보강 아이템

쿨다운 압축

Can also go on your ult if you want to be more active early.

III

장막 걸음

This item keeps getting buffed because no-one uses it properly. It's insane for healing, spam it as soon as it's off cooldown and fight around Veils. If not, grab Counterspell (3.2k) to get 9.6k green

III

마법 반사

Counter hard CC. Good against Lash, Wraith, Shiv, Geist or things that could otherwise make you want to waste ult.

I

회복탄

Use this as much as possible in lane to sustain yourself. You can buy Melee Lifesteal if you prefer it/plan to get Lifestrike later.

II

마법 차폐

Good in spirit bursty lanes. Lash, Shiv (Dash), Talon, Viscous, etc. Not good against early Wraith or heroes that need scaling. This item falls off around 15-20 minutes.

II

활성 효과

영혼 채취

Instead of Cold Front (Upgrade to Silence Wave). Helps early with heroes that buy Fury Trance or have Spirit Resist per boon/items. (Lash, Kelvin, McGinnis, etc.)

III

마법 손아귀

Insane damage that scales with Spirit and has insane shred + resists steal. Good Synergy with Cold Front/Arctic Blast, Mystic Vulnerability and Phantom Strike.

II

마법 강화

Can delay if you're getting Second Choice instead. Amps damage on all your items (Snatch, Cold Front, Torment + abilities).

IV

영혼의 해방

Boosts all damage (abilities + items). Can delay until after a Second Choice item, but still core. Boosts items like Cold Front, Radiant, Reactive, etc.

IV

초월 쿨다운

Almost all your items have cooldowns.

IV

활성 효과

거인

Mini-ult for ult downtime with huge HP boost. Buying this early will win you games. (~16–20k with 9.6k greens) Get Diviners if they have %max damage like Scourge, Toxic Bullets, Dynamo (ult).

IV

활성 효과

유령 타격

Gap closer + burst with CC for Yamato. Counters Vindicta, Talon, Lash, M1s. Synergizes with Cold Front & Arctic Blast. Get Lvl 3 Crimson Slash > Lvl 2 Flying Strike, skip Silence Wave.

IV

영혼 화상

Best anti-heal in the game (Abrams, Kelvin, McGinnis, Shiv Geist). Weak vs Victor. Keep Healbane if you need extra anti-heal. Sell Healbane if pressed for slots. Good for eating bugs also.

IV

활성 효과

극지 돌풍

CC item with strong Yamato synergy. Roots movement, scales well. Great with Phantom Strike. Combo is: PStrike → Arctic Blast → M2 → Melee (Spirit Snatch) → Powerslash.

IV

활성 효과

재앙

Enemy has Spirit heavy comp or high HP enemies, good if you can constantly stay on top of your enemy.

III

탱크버스터

True damage vs tanks (Abrams, Mo, Kelvin, McGinnis) or heavy resists. Grab early vs Fury Trance. Poor synergy with Mystic Reverb (procs from Cold Front/Arctic Blast).

I

반격

Punchy lanes. Good for parrying as soon as you leave your transformation. Insane damage amp.

II

전투 조끼

Early surivability against M1 teams.

II

반응성 방벽

Good against Mo, Holiday, etc. Scales with Spirit so get Boundless Spirit earlier.

III

활성 효과

약화 제거

Buy against Silence Wave, Curse, Infernus, Spirit Burn, etc.

IV

예언자의 방탄복

Buy if you get bursted down in / before your ult or if you often need to panic ult (Geist Swap, Lash Ult, etc.) Don't buy against Shiv, his execute pierces barriers.

IV

마법 차단

Talon, Sinclair, Lash, Shiv. Good resists and debuff resist. Best defensive 6k against Spirit Heavy comp. Good if they have Silence Wave, Curse, for debuff resist.

IV

판금 갑옷

Bugged, doesn’t work vs most on-hits (Magnum, Wraith 3, Djinn’s Mark). Still strong M1 counter vs Siphon/Toxic Bullets or non-proc heroes (Vyper, Gun Bebop, etc).

IV

저거노트

Best buy if you need to frontline for your team into heavy M1 comp. Also buy Supressor as firerate slows are multiplicative but only from one source (you).

IV

마력 사슬 갑옷

For fun/luxury item. Never have cooldowns in spirit heavy comps. (Can facetank warden ult, seven ult, etc.)

IV

보강 아이템

신비의 반향

Best dmg vs low-resist teams. Strong CC from slow + AoE. Bad with Tankbuster (procs off Mystic Shot, Spirit Snatch, Cold Front). Good with Spirit Burn, break Spellbreaker first.

IV

활성 효과

복원의 빛

This item will help you win endgame fights. Getting it early (before Trancendant Cooldown) is suboptimal. Good with rejuv and duration. Bad with Diviners Kevlar (only get the buff once).

II

근거리 돌격

If you need to pivot to melee Yamato. Crushing Fists is expensive and she already has top heavy melee dmg. If you need to pivot, follow a different build instead for this game.

III

활성 효과

피의 공물

High skill-ceiling item. Only buy if you know how to use it and if you need it for the stats. Otherwise do not touch.

III

활성 효과

희생 제물

Solid stats for Yamato, but kind of a win-more. Fire rate boosts bomb spam and farm clear. Don’t pair with Express Shot. If slot pressed late, use for buff then sell.

III

신속탄

This item starts really being good once you get to around 15-20 boons depending on your weapon investment. I personally stopped buying it because I like constantly spamming my M2 instead.

I

추가 재생

Good if you can't stay out of combat. Builds into healing booster.

I

근거리 치유

Good sustain vs Resto Shot (heavy melee creeps for cooldown, light melee players except for in ult/without parry).

I

쾌속 장화

Good for regen between waves and running boxes in lane.

II

쾌속 질주

Helps you get around fast and is good for slow resists. Upgades into Juggernaut later. If you're looking for more mobility I recommend Veil Walker instead.

II

치유 부스터

Really good with Veil Walker, Healbane Heal, Ult Heal or your T2 Crimson Slash once you get Colossus. Prioritize Maxing your 3 over T2 Flying Strike if you want to spam heals.

II

활성 효과

보복 사격

Good early against M1 heroes but probably not your best buy.

III

생명 강타

Second Best healing item for Yamato but requires you to land punches (preferably heavy melees) to heal. I don't like relying on this for sustain. Good if you pivot to Melee Yamato.

III

활성 효과

강철 피부

Good with duration + Trancendant CD. Hard M1 counter and helps you live in late game fights. (Paradox, Vyper, etc.)

III

활력의 대가

Best movement item in the game if you know how to use it properly. Let's you escape from everything.

II

신비의 상처

Nice synergy with Torment Pulse or Spirit Snatch.

II

억제

Infinite firerate slows with your 3 and torment pulse, helps you win early and late. Great with Juggernaut.

III

찬란한 회복

Best healing for Yamato if you’re brawling often, but costly with no stats. Pair with Boundless + Trans CD, only if enemy lacks heavy anti-heal.

III

절대 지속

Superior Duration if you also buy items like Metal Skin, Silence Wave, Phantom Strike, etc. If you just want your ult to last longer get the 1.6k.

III

활성 효과

침묵파

This item is a hard counter to heroes that rely on their abilities. Good against enemies like Lash (for grapple), Victor (for jumpstart), Wraith (for cards), Mo (prevents ult).

IV

마법 증폭 중첩

Good with Spirit Burn into really tanky teams/high HP teams. Specifically with Transcendant Cooldown. Gets worse the more resists the enemy team has.
