Landscape Painter (Annotated)

Control the canvas, and burst paint low hp enemies. Actually painting (Mouse 2) with your Living Ink is essentail. The homing missiles are also your main damage and method of proccing Radiant Regen, so watch your ink supply. You can go L-->R for most of the build. Don't be afraid to rush a counterpick If you are fiening for Dispell Magic, rush Divine Barrier instead.

This build mainly focuses on CC, try to not pull more enemy attention than you can handle. Your paintbrush (Mouse 2) is way more usefull than people let on. You can setup shields/barriers blocking enemies from working together, or hurting your team. You can also use it to gain access to places that are highup. Try to use it with the creeps too, you can defend your creeps by painting them a pen by your lane guardian, you can also hold back an enemy push into your guardian just by dropping a line of paint. And because you buy Mystic regen if they ever break your walls your healing will get reprocced
