THE AIM OF THE BUILD:
This build will focus on the redesigned Abathur style, it will not follow the intended change design that makes Abathur become more aggressive in positioning himself closer to enemy lines rather use Evolve Monstrosity to split push lanes more effectively when the situation allows it.
THE FOCUS:
This build focuses on Evolve Monstrosity , knowing ahead that this will be your ultimate choice, talents like Reinforced Carapace or Pressurized Glands at level 1 will help sustain your ultimate at a later stage of the game once you reach level 13 and getting Soma Transference as well as Volatile Mutation at level 16.
SUSTAIN, SIEGE AND DAMAGE:
Adrenal Overload will aid your siege push, especially that Evolve Monstrosity now can burrow to different visible locations of the map once every 80 seconds which makes it an obvious choice at level 20 to take Evolution Complete talent that will skyrocket Evolve Monstrosity 's siege potential and damaging capabilities as well as self-sustain from talents like Soma Transference and Volatile Mutation .
HOW TO KEEP YOUR ADVANTAGE:
Often in quick play matches, less knowledgable players assume that Abathur will be either lack of damage or just can't be counted as a player, when in reality Abathur does compensate for lost experience points and in some cases compensate hero damage and deal a great amount of siege, keeping constant pressure unnoticed by the team players or opposition most of the time.
The key is to keep your
Evolve Monstrosity
ultimate up and going when you need to push, occasionally and strategically burrowing it in team fights to aid getting a point or allowing it to siege autonomously while you symbiote with your team during objectives and team fights.
