Early game

Early Stuff
  1. Mystic Burst

    800 souls · Also adds hundreds of healing to each Scorn, but only when Scorn has 2 upgrades. Your second sold item if you need slots

  4. Trophy Collector

    1,600 souls · Sell if you need a slot late game, it does feel bad to lose the movespeed so I usually sell it for Enduring Speed and Juggernaut

  5. Cold Front

    1,600 souls · Use while burrowed to set up for your unburrow, or just use it while spinning. Use on tier 1 camps with Scorn to clear them instantly

  9. Torment Pulse

  10. Warp Stone

    3,200 souls · This is Mo's best movement item in my opinion. You can use warp stone while burrowed to get on top of 1-story buildings and ridges. This exp

Situational

Early Optional
  1. Rebuttal

    800 souls · Pretty much a guaranteed kill if you parry bait someone, but will only work once per person at most. Beyond that, melee resist feels very go

  2. Return Fire

    1,600 souls · Don't let the cost of the item bait you, this is a late game counter item to teams with many M1's. Should use while burrowed or while ulting

Situational

Early Optional
  1. Compress Cooldown

    1,600 souls · Since you are buying Superior CD next, might as well put this on the ability you will use the most in between. Will -20 seconds on ult if fu

  3. Superior Duration

    3,200 souls · Great item that synergyzes with Burrow, Combo and Scourge. This is a Defensive and Offensive Spike.

  4. Tankbuster

    3,200 souls

  7. Superior Cooldown

    3,200 souls · Usually Curse this item!

  9. Arctic Blast

    6,400 souls · Buy this as soon as some loser on the enemy team thinks Indom is your hard counter

Late game

Late Game Common Options
  2. Unstoppable

    6,400 souls · A good counter item to Dynamo if he keeps ulting your team. Very strong combo item with Cheat Death.

  3. Debuff Reducer

    1,600 souls

    3,200 souls · Almost always a buy. Necessary vs Knockdowns, Decays, Seven 2, Infernus, Knife Shiv, Mirage, Haze, etc.

  5. Cheat Death

    6,400 souls · Cheat Death+Unstoppable+Superior Duration = Someone is getting held for a long time. Build this vs fed Shiv's now that it beats Killing Blow

  6. Witchmail

  7. Cursed Relic

    6,400 souls

  8. Spellbreaker

    6,400 souls · Gives damage to whole team, and a little resist.

    6,400 souls

  11. Echo Shard

    6,400 souls · Imbue Burrow if they are never pulling you out, imbue sandblast if many M1s

Vit Items

  1. Metal Skin

    3,200 souls

  2. Diviner's Kevlar

    6,400 souls · An item to buy if you are weaker and want your ults to be better. Cheaper, but worse, than getting Unstoppable and Cheat Death

  3. Phantom Strike

    6,400 souls · A good item to buy the enemies are playing outside of Warp Stone+Dash Range constantly

  4. Juggernaut

    6,400 souls · Great item versus certain heros, like Haze, Infernus, Wraith, and Mirage. I sometimes delay Scourage to buy this sooner depending on the ene

  5. Indomitable

  6. Veil Walker

    3,200 souls · VERY GOOD ITEM IF YOU GET USED TO USING IT

  7. Colossus

    6,400 souls

  8. Reactive Barrier

    1,600 souls · Can be a life saver vs quick stuns such as Abrams Charge, not incredibly needed vs Bebop since you can use burrow after being hooked anyways

  9. Plated Armor

    6,400 souls

  10. Bullet Resilience

    3,200 souls · Buy when needed, can buy at any point in the game. Generally bullet resist is less needed than spirit resist because of burrow. But if you a

  2. Improved Spirit
