How I decide
«I pay for Arcane Blink to make repeated useful movements.»
Ruslan UkrainskyiSpeaking through Rodya
- 01 Situation
- My basic entry is already enough, but I need the additional properties of the magical upgrade.
- 02 My decision
- I check whether jump frequency and recovery help my actual cycle.
- 03 What I avoid
- Upgrade Blink while leaving unresolved the threat that prevents every use.
When I would buy it
As soon as positioning stops me from contributing; upgrades come after the hero's main needs.
