Overview
This build was created by Hydration. To find it in game, search for "Mobalytics - Kelvin by Hydration" (BuildID: 17516)
Kelvin can be played as a utility poke “mage” with high mobility and map presence. In this build, we will focus on taking advantage of the power of his
Frost Grenade.
Early Game
Buy
High-Velocity Mag as your first item to help you secure and deny souls.
Hollow Point Ward into
Mystic Burst and
Extra Charge to establish a strong lane presence and kill pressure!
Restorative Shot is an extremely good item to help sustain you during lane.
Close Quarters,
Extra Health, and
Extra Spirit will continue to push your early tempo.
Sprint Boots allows you to zip around the map, combine that with
Ice Path and you can become a ganking machine.









Mid Game
In the midgame prioritize filling up your slots while pressuring the map.
If ahead, prioritize buying
Rapid Recharge and
Improved Burst.







Late Game
At this point decide whether you want to commit to Spirit or Weapon depending on your team’s damage spread and enemy team’s resistances.
Upgrade
Pristine Emblem and
Point Blank if you have no slots, otherwise
Hunter's Aura and
Alchemical Fire are great items for fighting enemies inside your
Frozen Shelter.
If you decide to focus more on Spirit, upgrade
Improved Spirit and
Superior Cooldown, then begin saving up for
Mystic Reverb,
Boundless Spirit, and
Echo Shard. Imbue
Superior Cooldown on
Frost Grenade.








Situational Items
Echo Shard is the best option for increasing your burst potential, use it after throwing out a
Frost Grenade
Mystic Reverb helps you slow down the enemy team while also making your poke stronger.
Boundless Spirit is a very solid item and will make you a lot stronger while also making your healing much more efficient.
Siphon Bullets is one the best 6200 Vitality items on
Kelvin, it deals a lot of damage while also making you much harder to kill with the healing output
Kelvin provides.
