Your main play is to pick someone out with your dagger to either solo kill with headshots or to set up your team. YOU CAN ROAM EARLY WITH SMOKE BOMB. If you don't see any opportunities you can invade their jungle and steal their camps with Smoke Bomb and Active Reload for sustain. Try not to fall into a gun carry side lane farming habit for too long.0 items

Category 12

If the enemy team constantly groups up you can pivot into more of a carry position with items like Ricochet and Frenzy. You can also max out your sleep duration and wakeup delay to create openings for your own team. Don't be afraid of mix and matching the items; you do not have to lock yourself into one path or the other at any given moment.0 items

Veil Walker Tech

Veil Walker heals more than Fortitude if you use it off cooldown. It's also usable mid fight if you're in a pinch and lets you reserve more Smoke Bomb charges for dispel/lifesteal than usual.0 items

Category 14

If you're running away with Smoke Bomb RUN INTO THEIR SIDE OF THE MAP. Most enemies will expect you to run to your side and objectives will not react to you when you're invisible. Just be careful to not be in range of anyone to reveal you when running by objectives.0 items
