Deathy's Fully Annotated Graves Build
Building spirit on Graves early mostly sucks. She is a debuff hero that scales. Don't try to be too active early, mostly focus on pressuring lanes and showing up to objectives. You are an AREA CONTROL HERO.

cooldown reduction is a lie, why does it not work on 1 idk. Yoshi please change making cdr reduce cooldown cost of death per jar of dead on 1 is useless and boring, i much rather have a shorter 1 and be able to spam jars with witchmail tank build please change. Graves cant shoot venator traps either and skulls attack sinners making doing camps and sinner at the same time impossible. PLS CHANGE jar upgrade points as well they are giga useless till max.
