3
 Alpha Average damage, can be quite annoying to deal with but not really a danger.
4
 Blackfeather Pretty harmless to Phinn's tankiness.
4
 Kestrel Annoying Glimmershot crits, keep some distance and draw her in and let your allies do the rest.
5
 Glaive Crit's mow down on health like a lawnmower, draw him in, stun him and have your allies kill him.
5
 Ringo Destroying crits. Reel him in and let your allies squish him to death (which won't take long).
6
 Krul Annoying lifesteal, no damage, not much of a problem.
7
 Ardan Annoying abilities, can be lethal when other heroes around.
7
 Catherine Potent stun and silence, but does absolutely no damage. On the squishier side for a protector.
7
 Lyra Arcane Missiles slow you down which is annoying when trying to escape.
8
 SAW Really trolly damage but easy to trap due to movement speed.
9
   No Threat
10
 Taka Really hard to keep close to, if he uses Kaku, throw your anchor in the direction he ran and hope for the best.

Abilities Top

Unstoppable
Slot: Heroic Perk

Phinn cannot be stopped or stunned. All movement-impairing effects are instead reduced to moderate slows. He even shrugs off attempts on his life, passively gaining 15% additional armor, shield and max health from items and effects.

Note: Makes him the best roamer and literally unstoppable.

Quibble
Slot: A

Phinn slams his anchor down on a neighboring location, heavily slowing enemies for 0.9 seconds.

Overdrive: This upgrades the slow into a stun!

Notes: With a Shatterglass does massive damage and great right after you use Polite Company.

Polite Company
Slot: B

Phinn stomps the earth, dealing crystal damage to all enemies in a wide area and launching them toward him. The effect reverberates around allies, granting them fortified health (increased by 6% of Phinn's bonus health and 20% of Phinn's bonus armor/shield) for the next 3 seconds.

Note: Great for keeping enemies close and starting team fights.

Forced Accord
Slot: C

Phinn throws his anchor in a direction.After the anchor reaches its destination he yanks it back, damaging all enemies in its path and pulling them back to him. If Phinn doesn't pull any enemies, a percentage of the cooldown is refunded.

Note: Great for reeling in escaping enemies.

Items Overview Top

Crucible - Great for a little extra health, escaping and blocking abilities for your teammates.

Contraption - Grants a few bonuses, most notably the extra visibility around the map.

Fountain of Renewal - Helps you regenerate without going back to spawn and helps your teammates stay alive while running away.

Atlas Pauldron - Makes enemies dish out a lot less damage while protecting yourself too.

Journey Boots - Helps you retreat and get to team fights faster.

6TH ITEMS

Aegis - Gives you a lot more protection against CP builds.

Clockwork - Makes your abilities available faster and your energy regeneration extremely fast.

Shatterglass - Makes quibble do massive damage to enemies, useful for securing your own kills.

Shiversteel - Great for slippery teams that keep getting away.

Stormcrown - An interesting voice (and personally my favorite) that helps you farm easier and take down turrets/objectives yourself.

TEMPORARY

Ironguard Contract - Helps you and teammates stay alive while farming early in the jungle.
