Mid Game

0 to 15 minL-R, you might be tempted to go R-L and while it does give you a lot of power early on it leaves you limited with engage or retreating. Movement is KING in this game.

While this build allows you to curb stomp easily in mid-late game, sometimes finishing off the Patron can be difficult as players start catching on to your shenanigans and counter build you - or worst case scenario, sticking together like a glue as they pile up cc/ their ults on you YcY

Creator Notes

0 to 15 minOptional

This build is all about building movement speed first before your damage output. In my opinion, Drifter is suppose to be slippery to catch and mobile enough to flank people while also being able to get out alive if things go bad. As a result, feeding early with this build can be detrimental as it means you take longer to get online and start doing damage.

15 to 25 minOptional

After you take your lane's guardian, you wanna roam around and look for picks or farm Sinner's Sacrifice. Be careful if the enemy team has Rem, as he's gonna be your biggest competition to taking Sinners. You should be a bit more mobile in this stage, so try and stick to the rooftops to traverse the map and avoid getting ambushed. Farm up souls, avoid dying and dropping your unsecured souls, and eventually when you get Burst Fire + Hunter's Aura it will all be worth it.

Hopefully by this stage you'll have racked up some kills and get some stacks on your 3. The enemy team will most likely mark you as a big target to focus down with ults/cc or by grouping up, so play smart around your team or try and ambush one of them from behind with Shadow Weave. Use your speed to weave in and out of team fights and be unpredicatble as possible. Best of luck, my fellow driftlet. o7
