Tesla Bullets
Farming engine, super strong timing for pushing out waves to jungle

It's very hard to play this character without this. Having lots of stamina means we can afford to do crazy movement, since we don't have to worry about aiming
Spirit Lifesteal

Leech
Built from Spirit Lifesteal
Ready to teamfight! Super strong with the amount of hybrid damage we are outputting
Toxic Bullets
Strong antiheal option, I would probably buy instead of Tesla Bukllets in games where it's needed
Blood Tribute
Better than Burst Fire against teams with heavy CC!
Capacitor
Built from Tesla Bullets
Hard to run from my skulls when you can't run at all
Spiritual Overflow
Built from Spirit Lifesteal
This is just overkill at this point, but strong item
Plated Armor
Late game version of metal skin
Spellbreaker
For heavy burst comps
Unstoppable
