Maxing Card Trick gives it a 2nd charge, additional damage, and accelerates its summoning rate - essentially maximizing her long range poke potential.
Tips for Card Trick
- You should always have multiple Card Trick ready to burst down enemies when they least expect it. A great way to do this in lane is to poke down enemies or take down creeps and neutral camps before a fight.
- You can cycle your cards on neutral camps to prepare as many jokers as possible. Jokers apply all effects at once (Heal, Slow, Extra Dmg).
- Use Card Trick's splash to damage enemies hiding behind cover. This can be particularly effective in lane as you can force lane opponents behind cover, hit them with splash, and then win out in long trades.

Project Mind Upgrades | ||

Maxing Project Mind makes Wraith incredibly hard to catch by giving her teleport a big boost in range, making Wraith more tanky upon finishing the teleport, and letting her cast it more often.
Tips for Project Mind
- When splitpushing always have an escape plan in mind, whether it’s a nearby rooftop or to your zipline, you predict where you’re going before trouble comes.
- By doing so and having strong map awareness you can be an oppressive force in shoving lanes and punishing the enemy team if they aren’t respecting you

-20s | +10% Fire Rate and +3s | Unlimited Ammo and increased spirit scaling (+0.045) |
Maxing Full Auto augments your attack speed steroid with a reduced cooldown, added Spirit Damage per bullet, and even some Bullet Lifesteal.
Tips for Full Auto
- At Tier 3,
Full Auto grants infinite ammo, making it great at taking down neutral camps and Walkers. - Remember that this not only buffs your teammates but also your Trooper waves, which boosts your pushing power even more when applying map pressure.

1 AP | 2 AP | 5 AP |
+100 Damage | -50s | +1.5s Debuff duration and +6m Throw and Cast Range |
Maxing Telekinesis cuts down its cooldown by a third, increases its duration, and even turns it from a single-target to an AoE ability.
Tips for Telekinesis
Telekinesis disables enemy Stamina and any dash abilities and items for the duration of the debuff.- Get in the habit of watching what the enemy team is building and adjust your game plan based on who builds items that can counter Telekinesis.
- Try to avoid the ones that do build counter items or track their cooldowns if they use it on one of your allies instead.

How to Counter Wraith
Wraith relies on high fire rate to build up 
Card Trick and burst enemies. Good items against her include 
Disarming Hex, 
Juggernaut, 
Hunter's Aura and 
Suppressor.- Wraith players will often save up their
Card Trick for a big combo. If they have recently used their cards, it might be a good opportunity to fight them so be sure to track them floating above her head. Never underestimate Wraith's pushing power. If you see her split pushing, your team should likely send someone to slow her wave before she's in your base.
If Wraith casts her ult
Telekinesis on you from a distance, you might have some time to create more distance between you before it lands. If you react quickly enough, you may be able to find cover or get to nearby allies.
