do not waste your skulls in early lane you need them to do damage make sure the enemy has tried to commit a fight on you before you pop skulls or you think you can atleast trade 200+ damage with them its unlikly you will get a kill in lane best possible way it to buy rebuttal in a non double m1 lane (DO NOT BUY REBUTTAL IF IT JUST 2 M1S POKING YOU POKE LANES = LOSE) but if you can get rebuttal i.e combo heros or melee heros who sneak in melees then get really good item once you manage to get ult look for an oppurtinity to surge ult and then take their gurdian after that just push waves farm jungle,run boxes, once your ult is off cooldown again just go insta gank another lane surge ult and surge skulls and get their gurdian repeat untill all gurdians die after that just start farming proceed to mid game notes.

other then the basic sinner,catch all waves, farm, jungle,boxes. you now need to choose between going to urn fights or going to split for walkers rule of thub try sit in the side lane opposite of urn the urn will always spawn yellow if the timer ends with 0 and green if the timer ends with 5 i.e 10 minutes = yellow 15 = green. Usually 70% of the time i go for walkers got to make sure you have ult up tho if not ult more worth to fight for urn if you get 2 picks and your entire team is in good health and close to mid yell to force mid make sure they got atleasst around 20s if you got ult makes it very hard to contest also make sure you always wall the rejuv crystal even if they take 1 they will die anyway To long didnt read if urn is spawning yellow sit yellow lane wait for it to be picked up and then push yellow in hard just spawn gravestone on top of theri walker or right next to it proceed to end game notes

find out who is the most trouble some hero and burst them down by now you got echo heroic and have crazy burst even craizer with boundless just wait for your team to engage pop ult during fight if you see them B-line put wall on top of it and try to parry bait it if you placed it far enough aways just go in and double jar their biggest threat and kill them quick phantoms strike is an actual massive pick to just murder whoever you want just whatever you do dont be the first one to intiate the fight have someone else start it then hit them with everything try to track big ult and items as much as possible i.e dynamo on enemy team doesnt have ult and mid is up you can force it since his mid power is gone but make sure he doesnt have refresher proceed to ability knowledge

Creator Notes

graves players will always complain that it is simply to easy to counter skulls but do nothing to counter them from kill skulls if throw down skulls wait untill they have to reload so they cant shoot and then throw skulls and dash into them and parry so they cant melee them for free this the reason disarms areactual BISon spirt graves stop them from shooting skulls another note is you are using arane surge in this build please make sure to always surge your skull when possible basic to long didnt read skulls are more of a mind game please try to parry them so they become scared to melee off cooldown your skulls try see if you can force them to reload before throwing skulls for freeier parrier and please surge the skulls. Proceed to wall notes

you get value in this abiltiy not by actually landing the root most of the time but by manging to make them use stamina or actually denying the area. Best places to put wall are usually on top of tombstone if they try to bum rush your tombstone every time you spawn it then play around it and parry if they go for tombstone 2nd best spot is to make sure to arcane surge your wall and place it on top of rejuv crystal it will root them for so long that even if they steal a crystal they will guarntee die other then that use it 50/50 to deny the escapes or force out stamina if your teammate has a good stun combo it with wall i.e abrams shoulder charge into wall is free kisll or bebop hook or lash ults. Lastly surge your wall on camp if you are low on skulls to farm and if losing lane very very hard go 2 points into wall early and surge wall basically 1 shots waves.

PLEASE PLEASE DO NOT JUST DROP TOMBSTONE TO PUSH WAVE BASICALLY ALWAYS A NEAGTIVE SOUL EXCHANGE IF YOU DO UNLESS YOU ARE SMART ENOUGH AND KNOW WHEN ITS WORTH TO JUST DROP IT TO SPLIT NEVER DO IT. also dont put on rooftops can legit lose so much value because their path finding is so bad and they can get stuck. final note before actual use cases make sure during mid fights you put zombies inside the actual mid boss area and not in the zipline areas since they will be bad because of the veils. tombstone is obviously some of the best parry bait in the game but you sometimes should just arcane surge and put it farther back in the lane, however if the fight is in the middle of the map you need to just put tombstone in the middle of the fight so that ghouls can actually path find to people consider putting wall on top of it to protect it whenever pushing for walker place right on top of walker or right next to your wave next to walker also if pushing blue walker push in wave and go enter from the back (door next to their sinners and put tombstone on top of the walker its just free walker only do this if no one is blue tho remeber your tombstone is better held in your pocket than randomly thrown away it your best 1v1 tool it blocks all bullets and a lot of abilties, i.e haze ult, infernus ult ALSO REMEBER YOU CAN SHOOT THROUGH IT THEY CANT SOMETIME TUCK YOURSELF IN A CORNER AND ULT THEY HAVE TO RISK GETTING PARRIED IF THEY WANT TO KILL YOU OR THEY GOTTA LEAVE YOU ALONE. if you are ever caught out very far out of position run away place ult and 9/10 they give up on killing you to melee tombstone yoshi coded a built in taunt to force people to forget about you
