    This guide is something that i found when i am struggling with Blue Beetle's health issues in GH

    Playstyle
    Like it's passive disrupt and execute , your goal with this build in GH is to land your Q shots and your activated passive auto attack. During team fights when frontliners crash your duty is to send your W in to mark as many target as you can and drop your Q into the one asking for it, your W makes it so that other than splash damage from your Q ,your dealing a portion of your true damage passive to any targets that  close enough thats spearheading the assault , but take care not to hit the one that pops a preemptive invulnerability if that happens take a few step and shoot the one beside it.


    Skill sequence
    (Reach directive : Execute sequence)
    Start as ranged mode
    Q>passive>R>Q>passive>W>passive>E>passive

    (Reach directe : Disrupt sequence)
    Start as infiltrator mode
    Q>W>E>R>E
    (optional : pop super speed or invulnerability at your own discretion)






    Reasoning for this guide
    When i play BB in GH i found that most of the time you wont be squaring off with many champions easily early game be it bot or going with team for top contest.

    BB lack the base health for a duel in late game at bot as well which only makes him a makeshift bot laner in GH untill his first return. So most of the time i found that harassing enemy with Q to whittle champion down ,  force them to hard engage on you is the reason i am using this build, the stolen power i chose is for the hard disengage purpose at early game so you dont die, by pulling them out from top if they capped it is the que for your team to go brawl and retake mid.

    Is not like BB cant bring enough to help cap top first , when you land your lvl 2 Q and 1 AA u can chop a tank down to make the fight feasible thanks to your true dmg and your early heavy Q burst.

    During mid to late game , your goal becomes a poking warfare with your Q when you manage to build your core items , just arm that deadshot visor and you be surprised to know that thats where BB's burst is hiding, whats more the boost even helps you to make bruisers think twice on jumping you under a pad when u land it on him , heck your should be thanking him for giving you a reason to stack your deadshot.

    Your Huntress crossbow and Deadshot visor , serves to let you exploit the range of your Q and giving you ample cooldown , a will reserve to build and spend as well a good steroid  damage on demand when you use your skills or AA. Atomic axe is for you to pierce and to provide a feasible dmg amp on your passive and your damage skills too, and if enemy is stacking amor you can just preassure them with another Coda blade, due this playstyle your more on pushing your enemy over the cliff making note of your existence, and giving them a hard time to choose to go hard engage or fight a losing poke war with you, while you continue to rack up your dmg as you stack your will for Deadshot visor should they choose to tango.


    Additional / situational items
    This part is entirely up to you to counter the enemy team, bring Deathstroke claymore if the tank/bruiser thinks is funny that they can go all in and bump you off like a small fly, Batman's Utility belt compliments all your need while not ignoring your skill dmg output with a cooldown reduction and a Purge effect for even easier disengage.



    Key points
    Like how Blue bettle is design for quick kills , u only need to land your range mode Q for a full engage on almost any blaster or marksman, a Q then auto , R to drop on them auto or W straight away to minimize retaliation auto then E with a last auto, if they manage to live through that another transfrom back to range mode for another Q or an auto attack should finish the job, you dont always have to move in for kill when enemy is at half hp, remember to arm your Deadshot visor when your start dealing damage and you will be fine.

    Remember this build is optimized to focus your damage on your skills not your auto attacks.

    Amplifier and mods
    Amplifiers are quite self preferenced, whether you want to focus your secondary stats on movement speed or cooldown reduction but remember to put dmg as your priority 1 stat to focus on and flat stat amplifiers too since u need that early push to really make an impact especially the top fight.

    Mods wise i pick up price reduction for Deadshot visor because u need that toogle for the dmg, even if you miss your Q at least your stacking your will for a stronger Q next shot, taking a Q blast to clear some drone is a quick way to grab some spare credits and stack your will too, increased cooldown reduction for Huntress crossbow and increased damage for Atomic axe , but for Atomic axe you can swap it with for another mod of the item of your choosing since Atomic axe by itself does a good job even without boosts.



    End word
    This is by no means a wonder guide but it does good focus on what blue beetle does best and to surprise people that blue beetle is by no means a small fly, is not a 100% must follow if you try this guide so your free to test and piece your own killer scarab together, though i wish they really do buff BB's base health since that missing 200 health against marksman can be tough agaisnt them. I hope you all who try this guide find it useful and leaves some comments after you tried it out, if you have anything to add let me know in the comments too, if is solid i'll modify the guide to add in your suggestions.
