Hi there!
My name is Kiroo, I am form Poland and I play Vainglory for 1,5 year. I think I can call myself "Expirienced Player". I decided to write this guide, because I like sharing my knowledge with others. Every time I play Samuel, I build this items, and they are working fine. I hope you'll find this guide usefull.
Blue Items Top
Shatterglass is your main source of damage.
Clockwork reduces your cooldown time and gives you mana. Pasive also amplifies your CP by 30%. Also source of damage.
Broken Myth gives you CP. It gives you shield piercing. It can be changed for
Aftershock when only captain builds defence in enemy team, or when enemy team builds health. If you want to do more damage in that case, don't build
Crucible.
Eve of Harvest makes a good synergy with your
Corrupted Genius perk, giving your perk attacks more healing. It also gives you mana. You should always buy this item second or third, depending how you are performing on lane.
Defence and Utility Items Top
Atlas Pauldron and
Metal Jacket are good defence against WP opponents.
Atlas Pauldron is also very good against melee WP characters such as Krul. If you manage to slow his attaacks, he is less threat to you.
Aegis and
Fountain of Renewal are good against CP opponents.
Aegis is good against enemies with stun, like Cathrine or Ardan.
Fountain of Renewal is good support when your team loses team fights.
Crucible and
Slumbering Husk are giving you health.
Crucible works well against enemies with stuns, just like
Aegis.
Slumbering Husk fortifies your health when you take 20% of your health in damage over 1,5 s. it works well against enemies with burst of damage, like Joule, Taka or Adagio.
Halcyon Chargers gives you speed boost. It will help you to run away from danger. They also give you mana and cooldown reduction, which helps mages like you are. If you need speed boost more often, consider changing for
Journey Boots. They give you boost more often as long as you'll atack your opponents.
Remember to be as mobile as you can. While laning, learn
Drifting Dark first, to bully your opponents and to give you opportunity to last hit minions. When you're attacking enemies, put your
Drifting Dark first, than attack with empowered
Malice & Verdict shots. You should always be on a move. When you'll run out of mana, don't forget to attack with
Corrupted Genius perk. You'll gain more health and mana when you land your perk attack on enemy heroes rather than on minions.
