Feed me, Seymour [UPDATED]

Author's notes

Get as many sniper stacks as early as possible (max ult is retroactive) then focus firerate to benefit most from the ult damage boost + flat spirit dmg from flying

      Get whenever - move speed penalty can hurt a fair bit while flying if you buy this before burst fire + blood tribute

      Rapid Recharge

      Built from Extra Charge

      not that great for this build as i rarely find myself using 3+ charges in a single fight, although the faster follow-up snipes are nice. Needed for 4.8k spirit spike

      Counterspell

      knockdown is the #1 vin counter, farm for this immediately if an enemy buys it before you have this

   2. 2

      Dispel Magic

      Vin tends to be a very easy target for debuffs, so this is often a must for lobbies with guys like Shiv/Mirage/Infernus. Can also work on knockdown if needed

      Boundless Spirit

      Built from Improved Spirit

      Good damage, but not good enough to justify 4.8k until ultra-late or if slotlocked imo

   2. 2

      Fury Trance

      Built from Bullet Lifesteal

      Can replace leech if you want - great item, but can't use snipe so only get it very late when you stop sniping

       I don't think this item is very good; only really helps with things that are hard to counterspell or dispel magic doesn't work on like doorman/lash/bebop
