   1. 1

      Monster Rounds

      Buying this gives you 34% damage toward minions and a nice 9% for everything else. + Kelvin doesnt have a great lane. Having something to manage waves is pretty good.

   2. 2

      Extra Regen

      This or Extra charge 1st item depending on if you took alot of damage or not

   3. 3

      Extra Charge

      Stockpile

   4. 4

      Mystic Burst

   5. 5

      Mystic Expansion

      Nade consistency. More targets = more value. + 4.8k Spike rounder.

   6. 6

      Rapid Recharge

      Built from Extra Charge

      I go this fairly early. After 4 items unless your building gun, the lane will already be decided. We want to outsustain the world and keep our laner + teammates up anyway, so i rush it.

   7. 7

      Healing Booster

      Built from Extra Regen

      After purple spike, for 800,it just makes your nades heal 40+ more per target hit per nade and scales harder the longer the match goes.

2. 2Optionaloptional

   1. 1

      Healing Rite

      Mistake fixer. Usually you don't need.

   2. 2

      Enchanter's Emblem

      This item is great in accomplishing what we want to do in this build. Giga tankiness and extra spirit to keep you scaling, and we stay pretty high health with our kit.

   3. 3

      Slowing Hex

      Anti-Dash. Can crush a lane on its own. One of my favorite items in the game. ( If buying then skip Burst + Expansion till after Healbane )

3. 3Winter

   1. 1

      Enduring Speed

      I like being able to not get caught out as easy, have chase potential, and have slow res.

   2. 2

      Healbane

      Kelvin is one of the best anti-heal applicators in the game. This item has value in 90% of lobbies. When it doesn't you can just sub this out for some other 1600 Green.

   3. 3

      Tankbuster

      Built from Mystic Burst

      Great in any match, post lanine phase. Item will net you crazy amounts of damage just for playing how your supposed to play.

      Rescue Beam

      Built from Healing Rite

      Rescue Beam. ( Hooks, Dynamo Ult, Really any situation its good in tbh )

5. 5Blizzardoptional

   Author's category · 4 items · At some point you will pick these items up in your build as you dont want to be without the base components.

   1. 1

      Superior Duration

      Long.

   2. 2

      Transcendent Cooldown

      Built from Superior Cooldown

      Amazing item. Once you have 2 or 3+ things to reduce you can upgrade to this.

   3. 3

      Juggernaut

6. 6Hailoptional

   Author's category · 4 items · Damage

   1. 1

      Spirit Burn

      For when theres alot of healing to cut. Now that you can reliably proc this on every hero its probably the most consistent damage, AND Anti heal tool for kelvin.

   2. 2

      Boundless Spirit

      My favorite T4 on Kelvin. Just allows you to do more of everything your already doing.

   3. 3

      Mystic Reverb

      One of the most consistent damage tools you could buy any game.

7. 7Resoptional

   Author's category · 6 items

   1. 1

      Heroic Aura

      My bullet res item. Kelvin is probably one of the best if not the best heroic aura holders in the game. He's at almost every teamfight (if your playing right) and will provide extra res while in dome.

   2. 2

      Spirit Resilience

      Standard spirit res get tanky. Sub for Bullet res earlier if you need it first.

   3. 3

      Plated Armor

      Return Fire

      Fantastic item and is slept on heavy.

   2. 2

      Counterspell

      Usefull but I dont buy it as much due to needing other bullshit more often.

      Trophy Collector

      This item is very good. But i only buy it when I can see that we're a high kill game once out of lane.
