Balance Patch Overview

This patch brings ivy back to around her original gun damage state at max boons. Lucky shot damage nerfs and Glass Cannon health nerfs are minor, but they remain good. Though everyone else in the game may have higher total gun damage potential, Ivy still remains the best farmer in the game, with T3 Kudzu rush still being a priority. Camps are tankier, and so are creeps, but the bounty (souls) you get from both lane and jungle have increased, and jungle also respawns faster, allowing Ivy to hyper farm even more. This means you will reach max boons way faster than anyone else in the lobby, making you do more DPS than them, despite the fact that their max damage output at full boons may be higher. To reach this state, you will use tesla, and potentially cultist too to farm as fast as possible, and reach max boons as fast as humanly possible. You will sell tesla, or upgrade into capacitor (Depending on your need for picking people off), and sell cultist to make room for far more useful items. This patch can potentially be REALLY good for her.

How to Play this Build:

You begin laning stage in an effort to max kudzu ASAP to farm super fast. You rush titanic mag to clear and push lanes fast, and rush tesla to also accelerate farm and provide significant early game damage. If you NEED to win lane and establish early game dominance, purchase items like Battle Vest and Headshot Booster. Otherwise, if you avoid these items, you will gain access to other items that will significantly accelerate your farm and soul count sooner, though you will sacrifice you early game presence. Into the mid game, Fleetfoot, Enduring Speed, and Heroic Aura will let you ZOOM across the map and LUDICROUS speeds. After this purchase, you NEED one shred item. You will buy Weakening headshot normally, which gets replaced by Hunter's Aura or Hollow Point into the late game, or upgrades into Crippling Headshot, being flex-slot effecient into the Super Late Game. If you plan to buy capacitor to utilize its active ability, you should avoid purchasing weaknening headshot, and instead purchase Bullet Resist Shredder.

How to Play Continued

Either way, both Weakening Headshot and Bullet Resist Shredder will be replace by one of the following items: Hunter's Aura, Hollow Point, or Crippling Headshot, specifically when you run out of slots and need to spend your souls. In the Late Game Category, Glass cannon will give you a stable amount of weapon damage, and giving you the opportunity to do absurd damage with stacks, but you should not rely on the fact of acquiring GC stacks. The item can work without them. Your main goal is to acquire 4 total active items, so that when you purchase Spellslinger, and have 4 active items, you can INSTANTLY get 6 stacks on the item, by shooting the enemy, then using your 4 active items, tether, and kudzu, you will get 6 stacks INSTANTLY and gain +72% firerate from the item alone, lasting 18s, alongside all the other buffs you have. This would be considered "Full Build" and allows you to do thousands of damage a second, shredding anyone. Note that you WILL have to play Ivy like a burst character, so CHECK YOUR COOLDOWNS! Play around them, use them wisely.

Abilities & Powerspikes

You will mainly have powerspikes in this build centered around four points: Your farming "powerspike" when you obtain and rush T3 kudzu to farm nonstop and get insane Souls Per Minute (SPM). Your second powerspike is your roaming/move speed powerspike which is after you get Fleetfoot, Enduring Speed, and Heroic aura, letting you INSTANTLY Fly/Rotate over to any objective / fight, giving you a numbers advantage, which is INSANELY important for turning fights. Your third powerspike is your T3 Ultimate Silence, allowing you to both drastically reduce their bullet resistance (-20%, and provide an UNCLEANSIBLE debuff with a knockup, giving you a PRIME opportunity to MOW someone down in specific. This powerspike allows for Ivy to act as a garunteed "Pick" Character. FInally, Around your Lucky Shot purchase, and more prominently Spellslinger buy, you will be able to do INHUMAN amounts of gun damage and DPS in a short time, letting you burst people down with thousands of damage dealt before they can even react and counterplay.
