Paradox's carbine is weird in that it does spirit damage but scales with your weapon damage. This build tries to turn Paradox into someone who sprints really quickly during midgame for mapwide presence in ganks and fights, but come lategame can also chunk a squishy with her carbine, swap herself into the enemy team and be tanky enough to cause problems. Active items gear towards pissing enemies off. Your role in teamfights is almost like a disruption support that tries to snipe their backline.

First two skills learned should always be Carbine + Pulse Grenade for the poke combo. You could learn Grenade first but honestly it's hard to land more than one pulse without carbine. We prioritise T2 carbine for the cooldown reduction. Same logic applies for T1 swap. From there we rush a maxed wall because the silence is too strong to pass up. From here it's very flexible. Max swap if you need to hit longer range swaps, max carbine for more burst damage, or max nade for more brawly-style fights.
