Build
A build is a set of items, abilities, and talents that a player chooses for their hero in a match. The build depends on the role, playstyle, the situation in the specific game, and the team’s goals.
For example, a carry hero’s build might include items that provide more effective damage against opponents, while a support’s build focuses on the team’s overall survivability and providing support both in and out of fights. A well-chosen build enhances the hero’s strengths and helps adapt to the game. Builds can be standard or experimental — it all depends on the player’s goals and preferences.
