The doll sustain loop. Rose Gold Meteor over Haas' Claws: Haas' Frenzy needs crits and Golden Staff leaves none - dead passive - while Meteor brings 30 AD + 20 AS plus 10 lifestealHaas' Frenzy rides Haas's own +20% crit, so it only fires on a crit roll, while Meteor brings flat 30 AD + 20 AS plus 10 lifesteal her basics CAN use, hybrid defense from its passive (halved marksman conversion), and the sub-30% HP shield with MS burst. Quantum Charge: her basics on heroes heal 75-180 plus 30% MS - the sustain needing no slot, ticking under the Meteor shield while the doll holds victims in range. Demon Hunter plus Corrosion plus Golden core kept: the pinned-grind engine is non-negotiable. No built-in lifesteal in her kit - the loop substitutes uptime for burst: hold, grind, out-last into the 85-late. 6th slot Malefic Roar: 30% plus scaling pen - the doll-DPS cuts armor.

Vs Melissa: Muddles links a target up to 6s - the link breaks on range, so disengage OUT of the tether instead of dueling inside it. Her Go Away! (50s) fields knockback vs closers for 4s: reset on its cooldown. She is 50/70/85 - the late-scale grinder; facehuggers (Marcel-style) are her wall, shield tanks (Lolita-style) are her food - the percent-HP grind shreds shields.
