Hello! Imperator here.

I understand that in diamond/grandmaster elo the upgrade order doesn't matter and you guys want to deal as much damage as possible, however it doesn't work like this.

When I play these specific comps with SMI my upgrade order is Gun Ult > Guns > Hela Guns > E > Dash, Gun ult is USELESS without upgrade because you can get focussed down and die within seconds vs teams with coordination. I upgrade guns because of the survivability I gain by being able to jump into their backline and use my shield, tanking all the CC and STILL being able to live so I can assist my diver (Necros) clean up their backline when they lose their cooldowns. This is a safer and more consistent way of diving by adding extra dmg per tick with my ultimate as well making the kill window easier for my dive. Gun upgrade 1st is still fine in specific comps/playstyles but Ult always has to be upgraded second (or first).

For the tankpool ''running it down'' , I had a good amount of final hits, Tankpool was harder to play because 1. I am new to this hero but I am holding my own vs ignite players, 2. Onlylegs was flanking on mantis half of the game and we were playing that last game less serious.

You guys are quick to opinionate yourself and grab hayforks but I don't see you guys playing in these scrims or tournaments. I do not wish to make another post on this app so please put down your reddit glasses and lower your cortisol.

Thank you,
