Seven

Lightning Ball caster

Choose a coherent path

The reviewed default is lightning ball caster. An alternative is power surge weapon hybrid or storm cloud channel. These are tactical interpretations of the kit, not official roles or measured win-rate rankings.

Choose one build identity. Ball builds favor ability 1; Power Surge builds value ability 3. Duration Extender should follow that choice, rather than always using one fixed target.

Ability slots

  1. 1Lightning Ball
  2. 2Static Charge
  3. 3Power Surge
  4. 4Storm Cloud

Ability targets

Lightning Ball caster: ability 1 (Lightning Ball). Power Surge hybrid: ability 3 (Power Surge). Storm Cloud channel: ability 4 (Storm Cloud). 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 Seven

Leave or interrupt Storm Cloud and use cover; silence alone will not stop an already-running channel.

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.
