How to play

  1. You rush Heartsteel.
  2. After Heartsteel, you can rush Titanic Hydra (more fun, damage and some survi) or just go full tank - depending if you are behind and if your team needs more damage.
  3. You need to adapt your items to the game. Enemy team heavy on AP? Buy MR. They heavy on AD? Buy Armor. You need some damage? Well buy that.
  4. Remember to consume your Heartsteel procs!
  5. Remember to consume your Grasp of the Undying procs!
