DRACULA tempo (now heavily annotated)
general items that sound good, no strict l>r, use your big brain and buy on tempo fully annotated thought process
laning
you can use granny long legs to heavy melee the belltower sinners all at once!
Mystic Regeneration
Enchanter's Emblem
Extra Charge
Arcane Surge
Spirit Strike
Radiant Regeneration
Swift Striker
Extra SpiritMystic Regeneration
stay alive literally forever, works on m1 after threadsap proc
Enchanter's Emblem
incredible stats for lane, +15 flat spirit power $$$$$
Extra Charge
if you know you might struggle to hit threadsap in the first couple minutes, buy this first its good to have either way
Arcane Surge
dont sleep on this item. the stamina buff is really really nice and the buff to all of your abilities is felt
Spirit Strike
dont know how core this is early but it feels nice and her heavy melees are basically guaranteed so why not
Radiant Regeneration
same as mystic regen, but 1000% better. this will heal you for thousands without you even thinking about it
Swift Striker
the firerate is nice, refer to the gun spike category for a t3 or (rarely) a t4. gun spike is not necessary on this hero but every number helps and some of the utility is really good
Extra Spirit
scaling
she was whipping up green in a kettleOptional
Healing Rite
good if you need
Extra Stamina
buy early if you feel like you need
Trophy Collector
get over enduring speed
Enduring Speed
get over trophy collector
run around ig hit threadsap
use bench trimps and brew hmcs before they might be patched idk
Torment Pulse
Mystic Vulnerability
Improved Spirit
Spirit Snatch
Escalating Exposure
Rapid Recharge
Superior Cooldown
Superior Duration
Boundless SpiritTorment Pulse
this apparently does infinity damage
Mystic Vulnerability
i mean its just good debuff, upgrade later
Improved Spirit
baba has some of the highest spirit scaling in the game, abuse it
Spirit Snatch
spirit snatch + granny long legs heavy melee + threadsap just cripples enemies and makes you hard to kill (and the damage is alright)
Escalating Exposure
i mean its just incredible especially if you have a heavy spirit comp. debating on if this is core or not but its definitely good
Rapid Recharge
hit constant threadsaps just all the time
Superior Cooldown
she loves cooldowns
Boundless Spirit
infinity scaling
she was boiling green!Optional
Fortitude
incredibly consistent roaming green item. stay on the map you know the idea
Counterspell
refer to DRACULA drifter build. give me a green with everything.
counters/utilOptional
use your imagination!
Suppressor
statted and crazy
Rusted Barrel
good into m1 lanes, good stats, good to upgrade
Disarming Hex
just really nice to shut people down and the stats are a treat
Slowing Hex
hold them down, mostly only buy if nobody on your team can
Silence Wave
silence forever + decent damage
Spirit Sap
just make their spirit carry not be able to do ANYTHING
Focus Lens
on paper this sounds ridiculous for baba, might require a skilled player
potential early gunOptional
Rapid Rounds
if you REALLY want early fire rate i guess, buy like second or third
Opening Rounds
good item on paper but, in practice since baba has a horrific awful m1 base the weapon damage doesnt really feel very significant to me and the bullet velocity feels like a crutch, buy if you like it!
Spirit Shredder
shred + lifesteal op
Kinetic Dash
secret double stam tech for research purposes, buy instead of swift striker and tell me what you find
gun spike/gun supportOptional
buy one of these be smart, ordered by importance
Alchemical Fire
really incredible for obj pressure and damage and shred for team in fights
Heroic Aura
buff you and your whole team or push waves incredibly effectively, ohhh my gah
Spellslinger
raw dps item, buffs your m1 immensely. hit your threadsaps off cooldown and you will stack this immediately
Spirit Rend
shred + lifesteal even more op
Spiritual Overflow
idk, duration, firerate and flat spirit power are all nice. might be op i just dont really know
imbuesOptional
Compress Cooldown
or imbue on granny long legs to be in bench mode almost permanently
Duration Extender
dont imbue on granny long legs its not really worth it. unless..
imagine grabbing ur teammate with this while in granny long legsOptional
barriers.Optional
buy if you need, (and you probably will) ordered by importance
Grit
good to get early especially into high poke lanes, good synergy with soothing brew
Reactive Barrier
strongest barrier with strongest scaling, really incredible into even remotely good cc comps
Spirit Shielding
more selfish but stronger and scales better
Guardian Ward
really nice for the ability range and support capabilities for you and your team
Divine Barrier
probably the best pure support item in the game. absolutely upgrade from guardian ward if you bought that
Weapon Shielding
sorta good into m1 comps but more niche than spirit shielding. get if you know when to get it
bench trimps tutorialOptional
while in granny long legs, heavy melee onto a downward slope and jump as you hit the ground. practice this and you'll have many tricky ways to get around the map (until they maybe patch it)
baba's brew heavy melee cancel:Optional
while channeling baba's brew, you can heavy melee in the air and parry to conserve your momentum and send yourself pretty far. abuse before its patched
