Notes

bloodforge if you don't want to think much, arondight helps you reveal people in stealth (loki, morri) and gives a bunch of ms

i also like selling my golden blade/shadowdrinker for toxic blade if you urgently need antiheal (but i don't like the item overall)

Physical Protection

Notes

magi's revenge helps a lot with the teams with lots of cc when beads alone is not enough to stay alive (also gives ms and damage boost)

scorching blink is good cuz you can 3 people back into the flame trail

also prioritize getting power potions and wards before upgrading relics
