Build details

Fixed snapshot: the filters on this site don't change it. Sample: Abrams, normal mode, ranked matches with average rank Phantom or higher, Oct 14, 2026 to Oct 18, 2026 (never more than 14 days): 2,910 matches, 50.3% won. Unranked matches carry no badge, so a rank bracket means ranked matches only.
Playstyle group: the most common trio of 3,200+ soul items by 30:00 was Hunter's Aura, Superior Duration, Warp Stone. 895 of 2,910 matches (31%) built all three; 53.9% of them were won. That describes these players, not this exact build.
Items: bought by at least 50% of the group; late items are counted among the 332 matches that reached 35:00. With fewer than 2 late items, the build continues with the group's most-bought late items (at least 30%). Order follows the median purchase order. Imbue targets are the most common choice (20+ records, 40%+ agreement).
Ranked Abrams matches by rank: Acolyte 1,966 · Oracle 1,833 · Phantom 1,864 · Mystic 1,549 · Ascendant 771 · Emissary 1,533 · Seeker 1,901 · Initiate 943 · Sentinel 1,627 · Eternus 275 · Ritualist 1,641.

The last point (Siphon Life 5 AP) completes the order: many matches end before every point is spent, so it's placed where the 162 players who got that far usually took it.

Guide usage can't be filtered by game mode, so Match mode only separates ranked from unranked.

Published guides that Abrams players started matches with in this period, most used first, with copies and near-identical guides removed. Usage comes from the API's analysed matches and counts the guide selected at match start; it doesn't show whether players followed it. Game mode can't be filtered for this data.

1Lane
Author's category · L-R gun items, buy the greens when needed
1. 1
  Restorative Shot
  Gun damage+healing+invest, sell when need slot
2. 2
  Close Quarters
  High damage 800 item
3. 3
  Stalker
  You usually wanna get this on your 3.2k so you have it with tier 2 charge, skip if very rare egg lane
4. 4
  Melee Charge
  Very strong burst with tier 2 charge and movement boost
5. 5
  Extra Regen
  In my opinion this is strongest lane item in game, builds into booster
6. 6
  Melee Lifesteal
  12% melee damage is a LOT for 800 souls, the healing is good, and it builds into Lifestrike
7. 7
  Extra Health
  This item is very efficient, builds into Fortitude, and makes Vents+Fruits more effective healing
2Lane Greensoptional
Author's category · Situationally useful
1. 1
  Rebuttal
  Can be good into punchy heroes (especially Viscous/Baba) or just bought for burger boxing
2. 2
  Grit
  Can buy this to "counterspell" burst in lane or to play aggro, or if you're getting reactive barrier
3. 3
  Reactive Barrier
  Built from Grit
  I buy indom a lot so this item is just nice to have especially if you need it vs CC early
4. 4
  Enchanter's Emblem
  If you need early Spirit Resist
5. 5
  Battle Vest
  If you need early Bullet Resist
3Core Items
Author's category · Can L-R up to Hunter's Aura remember to buy greens
1. 1
  Bullet Resist Shredder
  Core shred item, can sell ultra late game after getting Hunter's Aura+Cfists
2. 2
  Fortitude
  Built from Extra Health
  I feel this item is important when playing to tempo like the current meta demands, and because there are so many box souls you can farm while healing
3. 3
  Hunter's Aura
  Can buy early if rich, OP item very good for melee, pretty decent in teamfights.
4. 4
  Superior Duration
  Makes your active abilities and items a lot better. Siphon, Charge, Ult, Unstop, Metal Skin, Colossus, etc. Easier to land wallstuns especially on new map
5. 5
  Debuff Reducer
  Debuff resist is just a very good stat in 99% of games
6. 6
  Crushing Fists
  Built from Melee Charge
  10% additive resist shred with every heavy melee is very strong. Massive damage upgrade.
4Usually only get 1
Author's category
1. 1
  Weighted Shots
  I buy this very frequently because debuff resist is very important, the onhit is nice too. Less damage compared to PB
2. 2
  Point Blank
  Built from Close Quarters
  More damage compared to Weighted and builds out of Close Quarters, so if you don't need debuff resist this item is good
5Core Upgrades
Author's category · Annotations
1. 1
  Healing Booster
  Built from Extra Regen
  Upgrade to this whenever, better if you also buy Lifestrike
2. 2
  Unstoppable
  Built from Debuff Reducer
  Pick 1 of Unstop/Spellbreaker when needed in your game. Usually this item is better.
3. 3
  Spellbreaker
  Built from Debuff Reducer
  Debuff Resist and Spirit Resist are really strong
4. 4
  Healing Tempo
  Built from Healing Booster
  !THIS IS THE VERY LAST ITEM YOU SHOULD UPGRADE IN A GAME! You want to keep Healing Booster's effect late game so this is a natural upgrade
6Surv Itemsoptional
Author's category · 3.2k L-R by Priority, 6.4k L-R by Priority
1. 1
  Dispel Magic
  I feel like I shouldn't have to explain what this item is for, very good item
2. 2
  Counterspell
  Very strong item, prevents a lot of the same things Dispel Magic can and more. Remember you have the item.
3. 3
  Spirit Resilience
  Spirit Damage very scary
4. 4
  Warp Stone
  Lets you catch people, makes it harder to be caught, lets you dodge some abilities
5. 5
  Lifestrike
  Built from Melee Lifesteal
  This item is still solid and you can buy it if you want to
6. 6
  Metal Skin
  Usually better than buying bullet resilience
7. 7
  Colossus
  Built from Extra Health
  Big healthbar, lots of resist, lots of melee damage, an HMC, and an AOE slow
8. 8
  Indomitable
  Built from Reactive Barrier
  Solid upgrade in some games due to it shaving 74s off your ult CD if procced twice during the cooldown.
9. 9
  Plated Armor
  This item is better if you own bullet resist behind it, and is very strong against onhit effects.
10. 10
  Ethereal Shift
  Strong item for teamfighting or stalling if caught out so your team can show up or CDs refresh
11. 11
  Juggernaut
  Decent against slows and if your team doesn't have a Juggernaut yet its higher value
12. 12
  Divine Barrier
  Pocket is annoying
7Util/Dmgoptional
Author's category · Think about Pstrike often
1. 1
  Slowing Hex
  For answering heroes like Calico Mirage GT early and securing kills
2. 2
  Silence Wave
  For answering heroes with defensive CDs like Pocket Viscous Geist Mirage
3. 3
  Knockdown
  I had one game in standard against a fed vin where she bought 0 greens and no one had this item so its here now
4. 4
  Cursed Relic
  Good late game, can guarantee your team kills One Guy or stop fed carries
5. 5
  Healbane
  Sometimes you need antiheal in a game and this is the cheapest option for it
6. 6
  Berserker
  The big damage stat stick, I don't think it's necessary and I want greens more often but can come up
7. 7
  Spirit Snatch
  Good if your team needs spirit shred or wanna 1shot people harder
8. 8
  Phantom Strike
  Good to rush after Hunter's Aura sometimes. Good for fliers/carries, also defensively against M1s because disarm
8Niche Itemsoptional

2. 2

3. 3
  Transcendent Cooldown
  Built from Superior Cooldown
  Can be good late if have important active items
4. 4
  Refresher
  If you have ult max AP, but don't have it up to contest mid and your team died like noobs, break glass in case of emergency. Can be good for teamfighting too, Abrams ult is strong.
5. 5
  Witchmail
  Good very rarely in the late game against spirit comps but I feel like other items keep you alive better
9Experiment Boxoptional

Build details

Fixed snapshot: the filters on this site don't change it. Sample: Abrams, normal mode, ranked matches with average rank Phantom or higher, Oct 14, 2026 to Oct 18, 2026 (never more than 14 days): 2,910 matches, 50.3% won. Unranked matches carry no badge, so a rank bracket means ranked matches only.
Playstyle group: the most common trio of 3,200+ soul items by 30:00 was Hunter's Aura, Superior Duration, Warp Stone. 895 of 2,910 matches (31%) built all three; 53.9% of them were won. That describes these players, not this exact build.
Items: bought by at least 50% of the group; late items are counted among the 332 matches that reached 35:00. With fewer than 2 late items, the build continues with the group's most-bought late items (at least 30%). Order follows the median purchase order. Imbue targets are the most common choice (20+ records, 40%+ agreement).
Ranked Abrams matches by rank: Acolyte 1,966 · Oracle 1,833 · Phantom 1,864 · Mystic 1,549 · Ascendant 771 · Emissary 1,533 · Seeker 1,901 · Initiate 943 · Sentinel 1,627 · Eternus 275 · Ritualist 1,641.

1Lane
Author's category · L-R gun items, buy the greens when needed
1. 1
  Restorative Shot
  Gun damage+healing+invest, sell when need slot
2. 2
  Close Quarters
  High damage 800 item
3. 3
  Stalker
  You usually wanna get this on your 3.2k so you have it with tier 2 charge, skip if very rare egg lane
4. 4
  Melee Charge
  Very strong burst with tier 2 charge and movement boost
5. 5
  Extra Regen
  In my opinion this is strongest lane item in game, builds into booster
6. 6
  Melee Lifesteal
  12% melee damage is a LOT for 800 souls, the healing is good, and it builds into Lifestrike
7. 7
  Extra Health
  This item is very efficient, builds into Fortitude, and makes Vents+Fruits more effective healing
2Lane Greensoptional
Author's category · Situationally useful
1. 1
  Rebuttal
  Can be good into punchy heroes (especially Viscous/Baba) or just bought for burger boxing
2. 2
  Grit
  Can buy this to "counterspell" burst in lane or to play aggro, or if you're getting reactive barrier
3. 3
  Reactive Barrier
  Built from Grit
  I buy indom a lot so this item is just nice to have especially if you need it vs CC early
4. 4
  Enchanter's Emblem
  If you need early Spirit Resist
5. 5
  Battle Vest
  If you need early Bullet Resist
3Core Items
Author's category · Can L-R up to Hunter's Aura remember to buy greens
1. 1
  Bullet Resist Shredder
  Core shred item, can sell ultra late game after getting Hunter's Aura+Cfists
2. 2
  Fortitude
  Built from Extra Health
  I feel this item is important when playing to tempo like the current meta demands, and because there are so many box souls you can farm while healing
3. 3
  Hunter's Aura
  Can buy early if rich, OP item very good for melee, pretty decent in teamfights.
4. 4
  Superior Duration
  Makes your active abilities and items a lot better. Siphon, Charge, Ult, Unstop, Metal Skin, Colossus, etc. Easier to land wallstuns especially on new map
5. 5
  Debuff Reducer
  Debuff resist is just a very good stat in 99% of games
6. 6
  Crushing Fists
  Built from Melee Charge
  10% additive resist shred with every heavy melee is very strong. Massive damage upgrade.
4Usually only get 1
Author's category
1. 1
  Weighted Shots
  I buy this very frequently because debuff resist is very important, the onhit is nice too. Less damage compared to PB
2. 2
  Point Blank
  Built from Close Quarters
  More damage compared to Weighted and builds out of Close Quarters, so if you don't need debuff resist this item is good
5Core Upgrades
Author's category · Annotations
1. 1
  Healing Booster
  Built from Extra Regen
  Upgrade to this whenever, better if you also buy Lifestrike
2. 2
  Unstoppable
  Built from Debuff Reducer
  Pick 1 of Unstop/Spellbreaker when needed in your game. Usually this item is better.
3. 3
  Spellbreaker
  Built from Debuff Reducer
  Debuff Resist and Spirit Resist are really strong
4. 4
  Healing Tempo
  Built from Healing Booster
  !THIS IS THE VERY LAST ITEM YOU SHOULD UPGRADE IN A GAME! You want to keep Healing Booster's effect late game so this is a natural upgrade
6Surv Itemsoptional
Author's category · 3.2k L-R by Priority, 6.4k L-R by Priority
1. 1
  Dispel Magic
  I feel like I shouldn't have to explain what this item is for, very good item
2. 2
  Counterspell
  Very strong item, prevents a lot of the same things Dispel Magic can and more. Remember you have the item.
3. 3
  Spirit Resilience
  Spirit Damage very scary
4. 4
  Warp Stone
  Lets you catch people, makes it harder to be caught, lets you dodge some abilities
5. 5
  Lifestrike
  Built from Melee Lifesteal
  This item is still solid and you can buy it if you want to
6. 6
  Metal Skin
  Usually better than buying bullet resilience
7. 7
  Colossus
  Built from Extra Health
  Big healthbar, lots of resist, lots of melee damage, an HMC, and an AOE slow
8. 8
  Indomitable
  Built from Reactive Barrier
  Solid upgrade in some games due to it shaving 74s off your ult CD if procced twice during the cooldown.
9. 9
  Plated Armor
  This item is better if you own bullet resist behind it, and is very strong against onhit effects.
10. 10
  Ethereal Shift
  Strong item for teamfighting or stalling if caught out so your team can show up or CDs refresh
11. 11
  Juggernaut
  Decent against slows and if your team doesn't have a Juggernaut yet its higher value
12. 12
  Divine Barrier
  Pocket is annoying
7Util/Dmgoptional
Author's category · Think about Pstrike often
1. 1
  Slowing Hex
  For answering heroes like Calico Mirage GT early and securing kills
2. 2
  Silence Wave
  For answering heroes with defensive CDs like Pocket Viscous Geist Mirage
3. 3
  Knockdown
  I had one game in standard against a fed vin where she bought 0 greens and no one had this item so its here now
4. 4
  Cursed Relic
  Good late game, can guarantee your team kills One Guy or stop fed carries
5. 5
  Healbane
  Sometimes you need antiheal in a game and this is the cheapest option for it
6. 6
  Berserker
