**Favorite Build of the league** "The Purifier" Purifying Flame Mine Saboteur https://youtu.be/Y5tEqL7g2Ig https://pastebin.com/svEHw4MG ----- Poet's Pen Volatile Dead Necromancer https://pastebin.com/USjqyibR
Spoiler
Overall a fun build it's mainly focused on mapping/blighted maps with a fairly high combined HP pool and good recovery but low mitigation. The main downside was dropping too many frames especially when spawning legions
Dexterity stacking Cobra Lash Deadeye https://pastebin.com/aMgunrqk
Spoiler
Not the best build, but after seeing the +5 chains (and +3 from enchant) with Cobra Lash I wanted to try it out with Ricochet. The build uses phys taken as ele / Divine Flesh for defenses and Vaal Molten Shell but suffers from mediocre damage uptime. NOTE: I found out later that while I was playing this Cobra Lash's chaining was bugged causing it to sometimes not deal damage, so this build may be better than I originally gave it credit for.
Low Life Void Battery Assassin https://pastebin.com/esNAnZhz
Spoiler
While I opted for Blade Vortex, almost any spell works for this setup it's reasonably tanky has good speed and good damage. Very fun and flexible, though some of the gear was hard to acquire.
"Hand-Cast" Ball Lightning Hierophant https://pastebin.com/6Ub1XDWv
Spoiler
This build came out of a discussion in Octavian0's chat about alternative ways to capitalize off of Ball Lightning's AoE scaling and not play mines. The build surprised me the damage and the defenses felt great. Cleared smoothly and had good single target. I opted for the staff setup to take advantage of Hiero's arcane surge, MoM to utilize the mana, Mind of the Council to mitigate incoming damage.
Metamorph League 3.9
Spoiler
Potential league starters: https://youtu.be/WfT1P5gsrQc Purifying Flame Miner (Life based) https://pastebin.com/n1DjC0ee
Spoiler
After doing awakener on TR mines I felt like the best approach to the fight was skipping most of it by brute-forcing with raw dps. So I went back to PF mines similar to last league. While not as strong as the low life variant I made a guide for it still performed well
Impale "Savior" Bladestorm Champion https://pastebin.com/qey7YGE5 https://youtu.be/kkFz12Ckojc
Spoiler
55k Armor, Divine Flesh tanky boi with a few million damage and permanent Vaal Double Strike via Savior I did this as a "for fun" sort of thing expecting it to be a meme... It was not a meme.
Arboraider https://pastebin.com/VsTBphtE
Spoiler
Your standard bow build but built to be tankier. Overall this character felt fine, it clears extremely well with a headhunter on and is ok for delving, bossing, general mapping even without one. But what are my overall thoughts? Bows don't feel great to play at the moment, you either scale the damage and die a lot, or scale the defenses and the damage feels slow. Overall it works but I do not recommend it.
Impale TS Miner https://pastebin.com/hwcMvfvA
Spoiler
Not your average mine build not your average bow build. Mapping felt awkward and got painful on the hands from having to spam so many mines but the single target/boss killing felt excellent. In fact I was shocked at how quickly I deleted Sirus. Divine Flesh + armor/Champion kept the build feeling tanky, Machina Mitts filled the weakness in recovery.
**Favorite Build of the League** Storm Burst CI Trickster https://pastebin.com/cpKmAG7c https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=msr4_R-qrG0
Spoiler
I originally came across this build on poeninja, looked too interesting to pass up. Was not the highest dps setup (there are a lot of places I sacrifice damage for defenses) however it cleared efficiently, and felt great to play due to the combination of strong defenses / insane recovery. I'm also rather proud of the character because I crafted (most) of my gear myself.
LL CoC PF/WoC Guardian https://pastebin.com/J89aXpvT
Spoiler
I wanted an extremely expensive "meme" build for the end of the league to run around T19 maps and destroy stuff with headhunter buffs. I got exactly what I wanted. Is this a good build I would suggest other people play?
In all honesty, no because it's made for a very specific purpose and outside of that purpose is not as good as most of the other builds from this league. But if you want to run around double beyond maps with 20-30k ES 1-shotting stuff and killing T19 metamorphs? Pretty good. Only change I'd make is to use an Es on hit / Mana as extra max ES eye next time. Delirium League 3.10
Spoiler
League Starter, Poison Blade Vortex Pathfinder https://pastebin.com/wsgyYaEU https://youtu.be/WJkA-UG5Uwo This build was my league starter, and I have a few regrets about swapping off of it as quickly as I did, but the main issue I ran into was the fact that I had horrible performance, frame drops, stuttering, game freezes and this character wasn't quite able to live when I lagged out. Warcry Berserker Cyclone https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2837695 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a3R21ZHZoDk
Spoiler
I had a ton of performance issues at the start of the league, and as a result I needed something to be as lag-proof as possible. The build ended up going well and I wrote a full guide on it. Storm Brand/Ball Lightning Archmage Hiero BL: https://pastebin.com/ZDbUPMdd SB: https://pastebin.com/yE2qcspD
Spoiler
I messed around with Archmage, and greatly enjoyed it. Ultimately the Ball Lightning character was a little clunky, and if I was to do it again I'd rework it to add in Thunderous Salvos, drop OOS and focus a little bit more on "burst" as opposed to sustain damage so that I don't drop my mana dangerously low. I then respecced storm brand, and that turned out to be as OP as the hype made it out to be, felt like playing a 20m dps Righteous Fire character with 1.5 screens of coverage.

.The red ball sat proudly at the top of the toybox. It had been the last to be played with and anticipated it would be the next as well.

I've never once thought to do that nor have I ever heard of anyone doing something like that.... but thanks for the free bump I guess?

.he other toys grumbled beneath. At one time each had held the spot of the red ball, but over time they had sunk deeper and deeper into the toy box.
