Phinn is very tanky hero and the slowest one in the game. But with good timing with activating your abilities he is very useful in team fights.
First, as any other roamer, you should buy
Ironguard Contract and farm with your jungler. Since Phinn's initial speed is the lowest in the game, buy
Sprint Boots asap. Then you can see at the scoreboard and based on what your opponents are building you should go for
Atlas Pauldron (if they build weapon items) or
Fountain of Renewal (if crystal). It is very crucial to go for defence items first not only to make yourself tankier but also as your second ability
Polite Company grants your teammates bonus shield and armor based on your shield and armor.
In terms of abilities, rush for
Quibble (1st ability), taking it to Overdrive on 8th level. That's because overdrive of this ability grants you STUN. With perfect timing you could stun all the enemy team at once.
Take 3 points of
Forced Accord and 4 points of
Polite Company. Overdrive of
Polite Company is not that useful. Much more useful thing is that hook. With 3 points of your ultimate and
Chronograph you could almost spam with this ability.
Try to initiate with your ultimate, bringing your enemies to you, then you can either immediately try to stun them with
Quibble or activate
Polite Company giving your allies barrier and bonus armor-shield. It will bring your enemies to the center again, and then you can stun em with
Quibble.
Combo: FORCED ACCORD - QUIBBLE - POLITE COMPANY
FORCED ACCORD - POLITE COMPANY - QUIBBLE
Don't try to do
Polite Company and then
Quibble.
Quibble is very slow and low-range, it is almost impossible to get enemies with it when they try to escape.
