Lady Geist Builds FAQ

Which Lady Geist build should I use?
Does the build support her damage while respecting the cost of taking fights? Compare recent match samples, core purchases and ability order, then adapt optional items for the enemies you face. The highest win rate alone does not guarantee the best fit for your match.
How are build win rates calculated?
Build win rate is the share of recorded matches won by players who had that published build selected when the match started. Players may change builds or buy different items during a match, so treat the statistic as a useful signal, not proof that following the listed items causes a win.
What does Trending mean?
Trending measures whether a build is gaining usage share compared with the previous seven days. A build can be rising without having the highest win rate, and small samples are excluded from trend rankings.
