Choose a coherent path
The reviewed default is ground strike burst. An alternative is weapon bruiser. These are tactical interpretations of the kit, not official roles or measured win-rate rankings.
Height contributes to Ground Strike damage. A hero using a whip is not automatically a melee-item carry; build around the damage actually dealt.

Ability targets
The default target for eligible single-target imbues is ability 1, Ground Strike. Item eligibility still takes precedence: Echo Shard cannot reset an ultimate, charge items apply automatically, and global upgrades affect all eligible abilities.
Item direction
Use these as candidates for the stated path. The planner chooses compatible upgrades, accounts for owned components and reserves room for the lineup response.
Playing against Lash
Break sight during his ultimate latch, respect height, and interrupt or deny his setup.
A partial enemy lineup cannot establish lane assignments, enemy purchases or who is ahead. Supply those details in the planner where supported, and reconsider the plan as the match changes.
