Feedback/Improving This Build

I'm always happy to hear feeback about this build or how it could be improved. reminder that 'improved' does not mean 'more similar to your favourite build.' This will always be a bomb-centric, CC build focusing on staying alive and denying space. Feel free to reach out to me over discord, username "cozmik_waffle" or through the game's server specifically "Aurelia (Paradox Enjoyer™)"
