Ivy is great with the last hits in the lane, thanks to her quick-fire rate. However, you can farm it up even faster with an earlyExtra Charge and Mystic Reachto boost up your Kudzu Bomb. Get an earlyMystic Vulnerabilityas well if you are playing aggressively with a stunner in your team. This can guarantee you a lot of kills.Extra Regencan be an ideal early item to sustain in the lane and transfer healing between your allies.

If you think your bullet damage does not feel enough, you can getHollow Point Ward,which can also increase yourspirit power. Before the side neutrals spawn, make sure you have theEnchanter’s Barrierfor a burst of spirit damage. In some cases, Extra Regen might not feel enough for survival. You can go for aRestorative Shot or Healing Riteand sell it later in the game.

Rapid Recharge and Improved Cooldownare the core items for Ivy. With less cooldown on your abilities, you can support your team in getting guaranteed picks. Once you have the cooldown reduction items, you can get theAlchemical Fireto compliment your Kudzu Bomb.

With fewer fights, you can getSoul Shredder Bullets and Kinetic Dashto gank on solo heroes on the map. If you have one Flex Slot open by this time, you can get theMystic Shotor sellHollow Point Wardto get it. To survive more in fights, get theSpirit Lifestealand gain HP back for all the massive damage you deal.

If you are struggling with the farm, you can get theSuperior Cooldownupgrade first to get your abilities available regularly. Otherwise,immediately go for theEscalating Exposureto amp up your bomb damage and melt down enemies. Upgrade your Extra Regen into theReturn Fireto get enough tank chances during the flight or chase down.

As a gank hero, you must get theFortitudeto get a lot of health for fights and passive regeneration.

If you are getting chased down or want to chase enemies for kills,Fleetfootcan be ideal. You can also use it to boost your flight speed during Ultimate.

With the game approaching the late stages, you will need more damage scaling with your abilities. If you want more sustainability, you can get theBoundless Spiritfirst. This will help you with many stat bonuses and increase the potential of your abilities. Otherwise,Mystic Reverbon your Kudzu Bomd can be the perfect team fight tactic.

During this stage, upgrade your Kinetic Dash toArcane Surgeand Soul Shredder Bullets toSpellslinger Headshots. Both these items will increase your spirit amp and power for a lot of bursts of damage. If your Flex slots are available, get the Boundless or Reverb first.

In case you are playing more of a supporting role,Heroic Auracan help you with a much-needed fire rate bonus for your team. If you want more damage instead, you can getSpiritual Overflowfor a lot of spirit boost. For the tough mid-game fights, you can keep aRestorative Locket or Divine Barrierfor a lot of health and shield bonus. For the enemy heroes like Infernus or Abrams, get aHealbanehandy.

Here is a detailed overview of all Ivy abilities and the Ability Point Order in which you must unlock the abilities in Deadlock:

Kudzu Bomb is Ivy’s signature. So, whether you are going to support or carry, you must unlock and max it first. This is still one of the most broken abilities in the game. As Ivy, you have no proper laning stage. That means you must gank as soon as your ultimate ability unlocks. You can max your ultimate ability after that and guarantee an AOE silence.

If your team comes with a lot of tanks, you can go with the Watcher’s Covenant first. This will give your teammates a health and fire rate boost. However, in most games, you will need to capitalize your stun to shut down enemies like Vindicta or Seven. As you always start from a flying state, it is easier for you to guarantee a knockdown on them.
