    The most common order. Games count if they followed it for as long as they lasted, from 10 points on. Gold numbers: the levels where an ultimate point or a talent usually comes. T: a talent is taken here; the tree shows which.

    This build has too few games for its own order, so this is the hero's most common order at this rank and position.
