I’m a MOBA noob but I’m starting to understand the basic concepts. Would love to see a laning guide with her that shows turret placements and how to position and play her in the first 10 mins to maximize your snowball potential. Thanks for the helpful guide!
tip for the ram up on her early game when your ammo count is low. make sure to slide during the ram up since you have infinite ammo during slides so you’ll get the full amount of ammo at max charge up.
I wouldnt call the the best Mcginnis build. She suffers from low movement speed so she needs things like Fleetfoot amd Slowing bullets to lessen the gap. Her wall is by far the best ability and the first you should pick in lane at the start of the game leaving the turrets to be picked third after your heal. Its unfortunate but your turrets are only used for farming and area denial... No one is gonna sit there being shot by them. Her best quality is her gun so Titanic magazine is a must. You cant wait for others to dive you with Mcginnis as most people wont do that unless they know theu can win, and most of them will get out of your range faster than you can kill them. You need to build movement speed on her to chase peoole down, trap them with slows and walls, and push lanes. Yes lanes, as in multiple. Shes the best character in the game for this. Edit: oh and a slight correction for your video. Her turrets shoot at whatever shes shooting at. Its not random.
Tbh I put a lot of focus on her ult with a similar SP build to this, and I've found it far more effective at solo carrying a bad game than any of the bullet builds I've been reccimended or attempted to put together, although the closest to performance would have been the on-hit tesla/lucky/ricochet combo I do agree about fleet though
Wall early is best if you have a good duo, I go turret first a lot for economy and for lower games. Max Wall stun is prob best first but it depends on when u want to start fighting. If you wait until 30-40k you have 2 or 3 maxed abilities.
Toxic Bullets has to ramp, you need to hit 5-6 shots to proc it, it doesn't bounce, and it costs 3k compared to 1250. That and it's only from Gun damage. Healbane works on all Spirit damage, so every ability and Tesla procs.
@@UchooGaming it's not just 1250 because you need tesla and healbane to be comparable, which means you have one less slot for something like escalating resilience
@@or6060 Fair analysis. I did try Toxic but the clear speed and utility of the bounce in team fights felt too good to me. Also heal debuffing with turrets & ulti. I could make a short video comparing the 2. I also don't take escalating on her, I just take Metal Skin.
@@UchooGaming intensifying mag may have been a better choice over escalating resilience anyways, if they have anti resist. i feel like mcginnis is hard to build for cuz she's so weak. also turrets shoot whatever you shoot
@@mitchellmontgomery4534 seems like most projectiles have the capability to potentially secure orbs. It's possible that the turret can hit an orb while targeting something behind it. It seems incredibly unlikely, and I haven't seen it happen, but there are a lot of games being played. I'm curious about it but it is ultimately so irrelevant that it's really not worth considering. McGinnis is already one of the best characters at securing orbs, so if the turrets actively targeted them it would probably be too strong. Plus her turrets are just free money as long as you're paying attention when the opponent is killing them.
@@Swiftduck00 I think it's a target priority issue, if theres no living enemies in its sight I believe it shoots orbs, I've had orbs floating up above get secured while I was mid reload, the only thing beyond the orb is the sky so it wasnt targeting behind it, I also put my turrets in sneaky spots where they dont see as much but are safer from getting dunked on.
Sick explanation! I've been loving McGinnis and needed some more help
Happy to help, gamer.

I'm not a full turret expert yet but I can probably do a video about laning.
@@UchooGaming yes pls :)
The tip on using heroic aura is huge, thanks for the guide :)
Great video. Not a lot of McGinnis content out there yet. Much appreciated!
I will give the build a try!

Yeah I thought about talking about sliding but that's kind of general game knowledge so a bit outside the scope.
great vid it helped me alot! would like to see you upload gameplay :D
Soon! Gameplay otw and working on the lane video.
just carried 2 games following your tips
Haha glad to hear it gamer!

We'll see how the McGinnis journey evolves into higher level games and over time.

I do agree about fleet though
amazing guide I would just add to upgrade the ammo mag amount to Titanic Mag mid match.
I don't use Titanic much but I did add it as an option for the build.
@@UchooGaming after using your build for more than 25 games, add it under luxury. Your build is very good at lane pressure.
Great guide, thanks!
Thank you 🎉
You're very welcome, enjoy.
What skill order do pref? I’ve been rushing wall 3 to stun people out of ult in a lot of games.
Wall early is best if you have a good duo, I go turret first a lot for economy and for lower games. Max Wall stun is prob best first but it depends on when u want to start fighting. If you wait until 30-40k you have 2 or 3 maxed abilities.
no titanic mag?
Super late pick if you have extra money. Or I guess if you feel that you need it, I feel fine without it.
how u onetrick when its random of 3 heroes :/
Just set your hero priorities
How many turrets can you have at once? Also, how long do they last?
30 seconds. I think infinite but realistically 4 is what you'll have unless you get a Refresher.
You should upload your gameplay footage
Yeah I can put some games up.
you forget to ad turret will attack target that u attack if the target in the turret range
I wasn't aware of this, gotta test it for myself.
How to show outgoing damage like you did at 17:36?
Press ALT and click on it
@@UchooGaming thx
I'm 8-0 with her right now
Let's gooo haha
I got a invite to this. Should I try it out?
yeah try it out!
toxic bullets does healbane and gun spirit damage in one item
Toxic Bullets has to ramp, you need to hit 5-6 shots to proc it, it doesn't bounce, and it costs 3k compared to 1250. That and it's only from Gun damage. Healbane works on all Spirit damage, so every ability and Tesla procs.

@@or6060 I actually didn't know that, I'll have to test. Thanks for the tip.
Important to note is that her turrets will secure and deny orbs as well which is handy in lane.
Im going to check on this because I don't think I've ever seen that
No they don't secure and deny orbs lol
nice troll
