EXPLANATION: Skill order Top

Your will always want to start out with your Merciless Pursuit(A).This is to get you Heroic Perk going. 1 amour and shield may seem little buy it goes a long way as the game progresses. You are going to want to haress your opponents with it. The more stuns you land the better. At the 15 min mark you want to get your perk to at least 30+. Overdrive to max out the stun duration.
The StormGuard(B) is one of my favourite abilities. It is superb in blocking out damage and not only that...it reflects them back! It is a really good ability if you have no mines or flares and you want to check a brush. In the case you are attack you will not suffer as much damage. Overdriving this ability is important it give you bonus damage reflected this help to weaken the opponents health in fights and may even help your team get a few kills ( Cp saw shanks you...he is dead haha)
Now Blast Tremor(C) all I want from it is its silence therefore I see no point in overdriving. Getting your silence onto an enemy team at the right time can be devastating. Denying the opposing captain from protecting teammate or denying cp opponents from dishing out damage.

EXPLANATION: How to use your skills Top

Merciless Pursuit:Watch your opponents carefully. If you see them trying to throw an ultimate ,stun them.
However don't need to wait for them to throw an ult, just focus your stun on the carry this can really hurt their damage output and even disrupt them abit.
Opponents chasing down your dying teammate? Stun opponent chasing you? You can either use it to run away or stun them and use boots
StormGuard: Now I've already said some of it in the skill order so there is not much to say but just to add when you see kestrel's 'one shot one kill' or anything that can be body blocked try to block it with your StormGuard and the damage reflect can really do some damage to them
Blast Tremor: As I said before this can be used to deny captain their support or cp opponent's damage. This can also prevent dying opponent to use boot to run away or can be used to kill fleeing targets

EXPLANATION: First purchase Top

The StormGuard contract can help recover some hearth can farming in the jungle during early games as you are still not tanks. The Oakheart boost your health a little and it's also the starting item for you to work towards you fountain
The health potion must never be underestimated, during early fights sometimes that little bit of heal could mean life or death

EXPLANATION: Counter builds Top

Now this build is to counter both wp and cp so there isn't much timeso in a fight where you need to change the items of the build the order however can be changed. Now whatever is the fountain must be obtained first the heal you get from this item is amazing and help in fights A LOT. The same goes for crucible as well as the second item. The energy battery as well you are practically useless without mana to support in early games. Depending on who is causing more trouble for you teammates is the the wp or cp..if it's cp follow the build if it's wp then you want to build the atlas pauldron first then the nullwave guantlet.

EXPLANATION: Build order Top

The most important the fountain and crucible. The fountain gives a massive heal on teammates and can really turn the fight around. From a dying teammate, he/she has now maybe half of their health back. Not only does crucible gives you a massive health boost the the reflex block can help your teammates block stun or other negative effects which is really helpful.Nullwave guantlet coupled with your Blast Tremor will render cp opponents useless in a fight.However not only cp.. heroes like krul although wp relies quite often on his ability and since he is now meta this would stop him from lifestealing.
Clockwork will help you get your abilites ready more often. The atlas pauldron will make wp opponent attack so much slower making their damage output much less. Now that krul is meta it will be really helpful in stopping him. And the war threads helps your entire team escape a sticky situation.

EXPLANATION: Synergy Top

Catherine is a super versatile hero and thatsee why I love her so much. She is the perfect captain and there is no team composition that she will not fit as a captain
She is a great captain and will always be a great captain and with grumpjaw getting released. I sure her stun would come in handy to counter his ultimate :)
