Introduction

Hello all, The name is Vintage aka Beast. *The build is still in progress.*

Skills

Hello. I'm going to talk about what skills to MAX FIRST.


* WE start with ""Fade Bolt"" since it's his main damage (+damage reduction) ability. Great for dealing AOE damage, cleaning minions waves, and de-buffing enemy champs.


The next ability to max depends on what champion you're up against.
* If lets say, a high ability damage dealer then I'd recommend to MAX ""Null Field"" the second. This will give you a 20% spell damage reduction, a very great spell against champions such a Lina, etc.


* If lets say, a low ability damage dealer then I'd recommend to MAX ""Telekinesis"" the second. Great spell to lift people, stun enemy teams and supporting allies/escaping.

or you can simply put one point at a time like in the build for the balanced effect.


Oh and Always put 1 point into ""Spell Steal"" whenever you can. Cause it will increase the duration of the spells you've stolen and reduces cool-down.

Pros / Cons

Pros (Team-Based)


Will do decent damage
Will support with items
Has lots of CC.


Cons


Items will cost a lot
Mana-hungry (Early-Mid game)
Supportive Damage dealer (will not get the kills)

___________________________________

Pros (Damage-Based)


Will do lots of damage (Nuker)
Will not need anything else after this^^
Has great ganking-escape potential with Blink Dagger.



Cons


Items will cost a lot
Mana-hungry
No supportive items (Hex, Cyclone etc)

Items

Dagon

is a must have item. No matter what role you choose to play afterward.

You can go Team-based or Damage-based, you still must have this. It's what makes your champ do damage. Cause it's not always that you Spell-Steal a spell that does damage, and your champ basically has 1 Damage spell. So this is needed.

Also you ain't a full support, your a Mid-Laner. Dagon Nuke power!
